The Sun-Times’ Bears experts make their pick for Sunday’s game against the Bengals in Cincinnati (noon, CBS 2):
Patrick Finley
Bengals, 31-28: A team that needed last-second plays to beat the Raiders and Commanders, who are both 2-5, will lose at the gun to the 3-5 Bengals. Winning on the road is hard — particularly when the Bears defense is banged up and their quarterback is inconsistent. Season: 5-2.
Jason Lieser
Bears, 29-25: The Bears will have their hands full with wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, but the Bengals don’t have Joe Burrow, and their defense has allowed the most points in the NFL.
