The Chicago Bears (3-5) will host the Miami Dolphins (5-3) on Sunday on Paramount+ and both teams will be eager to test out their new pieces. Chicago added wide receiver Chase Claypool at the NFL trade deadline, while the Dolphins made a splash by adding edge rusher Bradley Chubb to a defense that has sorely lacked a pass-rushing presence. Both players could be limited after a short week of practice, but both are expected to see the field in some capacity.

Week 9 NFL picks for Dolphins vs. Bears
Before tuning into Sunday's Bears vs. Dolphins game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up more than $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 9 of the 2022 NFL season on an incredible 148-107 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season.
The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick'em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.
For Dolphins vs. Bears, the model is picking Miami to cover the spread. This is a matchup of exciting young quarterbacks with Justin Fields taking on Tua Tagovailoa, but it's clear that Tagovailoa has more weapons surrounding him and is the more advanced passer. He has an elite wide-receiving tandem with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle and now his defense has been bolstered.
Meanwhile, Fields will be hopeful that Claypool constitutes an upgrade at wide receiver, but pass protection has still been an enormous issue. The Bears have allowed a league-leading 31 sacks and have a staggering adjusted sack rate of 15.0% that is nearly 50% worse than the next closest team (Giants 10.1%). The Bears have also dealt away Robert Quinn and Roquan Smith, leaving a defense that ranks 31st against the run lacking its two best front-seven players.
Chubb won't have a full handle on the Miami playbook, but it will behoove the Dolphins to line him up on the edge and let him rush the passer on any passing downs. The model is predicting that the Dolphins record 3.39 sacks on average and that Tagovailoa throws for nearly 300 yards to help Miami cover in well over 50% of simulations. You may be able to stream the game here.
