Bears surging as Packers and Lions stumble — what it means for the NFC North race | 1st & North
On this episode of 1st & North, Lou Canellis and NFC North insiders break down a wacky Bears win in Cincinnati, a costly Packers loss, and how J.J. McCarthy proved his draft stock with a big Vikings performance against the Lions. Plus, we recap all the trade deadline moves and look ahead to a Week 10 that could shake up the entire division race.
The Chicago Bears won perhaps the 2025 NFL season's Game of the Year, beating Cincinnati 47-42 on the road.
Now, they'll get another NFL team vying for some positive momentum.
Here's how to watch the Bears as they try to start another winning streak vs. the visiting New York Giants and rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart.

Time: Noon, CDT
The Bears, somehow, beat the Bengals after a manic final two minutes that included them intercepting a pass while up two touchdowns and eventually allowing a touchdown, 2-point conversion, onside kick and a go-ahead touchdown before winning on a 58-yard touchdown catch-and-run by Colston Loveland.
And, exhale.
The Bears get to come home for the first time since beating the Saints 26-14. Now, they'll get a Giants team that's been struggling defensively but found some juice with a new quarterback. Rookie Jaxson Dart has provided some explosive plays and sponsored some hope in the Meadowlands. But, there have only been two wins to show for it.
The Giants offer the Bears' offense another chance to get going. New York ranks 28th in the league, allowing 27.7 points per game. The Giants' defensive line features some talented pass rushers, which will be a litmus test for the Bears' offensive line.
