Here are the Week 9 Bears power rankings from various sites around the web:
| Site | This Week/Last Week | Analysis |
| ESPN | 10 (10) | The Bears had a quiet bye week, and no one criticized the offensive play calling. |
| Fox Sports | 14 (14) | The Bears have cracked the code again and realize they can be pretty good if they run the ball and keep Cutler to 30-35 throws. The Eagles will test this winning formula by turning the game into a track meet, and if Michael Vick can open up the offense against the Bears’ zone defense, it could be a very long day for head coach Lovie Smith. |
| CBS Sports | 16 (16) | Their two victories before the bye have them talking playoffs again. Matt Forte is the biggest reason why. |
|
|
12 (12) | Fresh off the bye week, the Bears will get back to work against the red-hot Eagles. The Bears need to build off the momentum they’ve gained over the last month. Solid play from Matt Forte and the offensive line have put the Bears back in the race in the NFC. |
| Pro Football Weekly | 15 (15) | With Chris Harris gone, youth movement in full effect at safety. |
| Walter Football | 12 (13) |
