In our Week 10 power rankings, the Chicago Bears landed at No. 3, falling one spot, after their ugly 27-24 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The team that jumped them, the San Francisco 49ers, is right there with Chicago in the overall NFC outlook.
The Buffalo Bills stayed at No. 1 with their big win over the Minnesota Vikings, who have an elite defense. Buffalo never came close to losing as the Bears did, but it was a similar game in the sense of a great team struggling against a top-of-the-line defensive unit.
Despite it being a tough, sloppy, and ugly win for the Bears, they have now won four in a row and are now 7-2 heading into their bye week. No more than two teams in the NFL are in a better spot heading into Week 10. Now, Chicago can rest, heal, and prepare for a Week 11 matchup against the New Orleans Saints.
