Is there an NFC Championship Game preview on the docket for Week 8?
While the San Francisco 49ers may have something to say about it, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Bears and Seahawks face off for a second time in 2026 this January with a Super Bowl bid on the line. As two of the NFC's most complete teams so far, both have impressed.
The defending Super Bowl champions come into Week 8 just one game over .500, but had arguably their best win of the season last Sunday night by taking down the Chiefs. Meanwhile, Chicago has seemingly taken another leap under Ben Johnson, especially defensively, taking a 5-2 record into Week 8.
With that, here's what you need to know to watch "Monday Night Football" in Week 8.
