The Chicago Bears (3-5) will battle the Miami Dolphins (5-3) on Sunday, where Chicago is looking to rebound after a rough Week 8 loss.
The Bears are coming off a 49-29 loss to the Dallas Cowboys (6-2), where the defense struggled but the offense thrived. Justin Fields had another impressive outing, this time against a top-three Dallas defense. With Roquan Smith and Robert Quinn gone and Chase Claypool in, it certainly sounds like we could be in for some high-scoring losses to close out the season.
