His all-purpose day was a big part of why the Bears managed to put up 47 points and outscore the Bengals, who had an offensive output of their own, scoring 42 points behind Joe Flacco's career-high 470 passing yards.

The Bears needed it badly after falling behind 7-0 when Bengals return man Charlie Jones ran the opening kickoff back 98 yards for a touchdown. It was the first career completion by Moore, who was 0 for 2.

The Chicago Bears responded quickly to an opening touchdown from the Cincinnati Bengals, and Caleb Williams made a bit of history doing it.

The most encouraging Chicago Bears grade from Week 9 was Caleb Williams, who PFF issued an elite 90.8, including an 85.2 passing grade. It was by far Williams' best game (in PFF's system) of 2025.

The Bengals defense can’t stop a nosebleed, which is why every Cincinnati total usually lands in the 50s. Cincinnati takes a bye in Week 10, then heads to Pittsburgh. If you’re sizing up the fantasy playoffs, the Bengals host Baltimore in Week 15, travel to Miami in Week 16 and host Arizona in Week 17.

Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle B.J. Hill sacks Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams for a 7-yard loss in Week 9.

Here we go again, Chicago Bears fans. That old fear is back. The fear that this team got it wrong again. With every chance to get it right. With the No. 1 overall pick in their clutches and the choice of any of the three top QBs in the 2024 before them.

Josh, Jarrett and Eli take a stab at why solving the Bears' pre-snap operation problems has taken so long, and how Caleb Williams' development has affected that, on The Sports Office. Catch The Sports Office on the WGN+ App on your smart TV at 7:30 p.
