Chicago keeps winning
The Chicago Bears beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 27-24 at Soldier Field in Week 9, extending their winning streak to four games and improving to 7-2 in the 2026 season. Chicago has scored 241 points and allowed 184, a plus-57 differential. The Bears have scored at least 27 points in each of their past four games, with two of those wins coming by six points or fewer.
A productive four-game stretch
The streak began with a 31-23 road win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 6. Chicago followed with a 30-24 victory over the New England Patriots, then beat the Seattle Seahawks 34-17 on the road before returning home to defeat Tampa Bay. The Bears outscored those four opponents 122-88. The Seattle victory provided the largest margin in that stretch at 17 points; the three-point win over Tampa Bay was the narrowest.
Swift leads the season fantasy totals
Running back D’Andre Swift tops Chicago’s season PPR scoring with 153.8 points. Wide receiver Luther Burden III follows with 136.3, ahead of quarterback Caleb Williams at 110.3. Wide receiver Rome Odunze has 88.8 PPR points, and tight end Colston Loveland has 83.3. Swift holds a 17.5-point edge over Burden, but Burden supplied the strongest Week 9 total among Chicago’s listed fantasy leaders.
Burden sets the Week 9 pace
Burden finished Week 9 with 20.7 PPR points. Odunze and the Chicago defense each produced 16.0, while Williams added 12.8 and Loveland scored 9.4. For fantasy managers, Chicago’s receiving production stood out: both Burden and Odunze outscored Williams in PPR, with Burden reinforcing his place near the top of the team’s season totals.
