NFL Week 9 betting: 5 biggest storylines, including the Bears and Jaguars creeping up Super Bowl odds

As the NFL season hits its ninth week, the Los Angeles Chargers remain the only winless team and hold an 0-6-1 record against the spread. Meanwhile, the Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars are climbing Super Bowl contention lists.

The Bears stand at 6-2 following a Monday night triumph over the Seattle Seahawks, aided by recent roster additions and strong offensive performances. Caleb Williams currently ranks fourth in MVP considerations, while newly acquired defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons bolsters the defensive front.

In Jacksonville, the 5-2 squad boasts a dominant scoring margin and shares identical championship odds with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Upcoming Week 9 matchups present contrasting challenges across the league. The surging Jaguars prepare to face a severely depleted Baltimore Ravens roster missing Lamar Jackson and potentially relying on untested quarterbacks like Joe Fagnano or Austin Reed.

Elsewhere, the Dallas Cowboys face pressure heading into their weekend contest as substantial road favorites.
