Here are the week 15 Bears power rankings from various sites around the web:

ESPN: #8 (Last week: #9)

Analysis, “Does Brian Urlacher still think the Bears are better than the Patriots?”

Fox Sports: #8 (Last week: #5)

Analysis, “Maybe the Bears aren’t as good as we thought they were? Hey, the Patriots had to play in the bad weather and didn’t have a problem scoring. The Bears still are the favorites to win the NFC North, but they certainly aren’t overwhelming anyone.”

SI.com: #11 (Last week: 8)

Analysis, “The Bears did just run into the New England buzzsaw at the worse possible time, but you can’t say Chicago hasn’t lived a charmed existence this season. The Bears are getting the Vikings outdoors and maybe Favre-less this Monday night in Minnesota. And that’s after the Week 1 Calvin Johnson non-catch call, facing Carolina the week Chicago was without Jay Cutler, drawing the winless Bills on a neutral field in Toronto, and lucking into Tyler Thigpen’s start at quarterback in Miami. If Chicago earns the NFC’s No. 2 seed and a bye in the first round of the playoffs, Lovie Smith should take his entire team to Vegas for the break.”
Yahoo Sports: #9 (Last week: #7)

Analysis,  “Will they root harder for the Patriots this Sunday than they played against New England last Sunday?”

WEEI.com: #10 (Last week: #7)

Analysis, “The Bears were outmatched and embarrassed at home last Sunday against the Patriots. They played horrible on both sides of the football. Luckily for them, they still have two games against divisional opponents and are able to control their own destiny.”

CBS Sports: #5 (Last week: #3)

Analysis, “What the heck happened to that defense against New England? That’s not a good sign moving down the stretch. Tom Brady carved up that defense.”

Pro Football Weekly: #9 (Last week: #9)

Analysis, “Reality is, they’re in better playoff position than when they entered week.”

Pro Football Talk: #11 (Last week: #6)

Analysis, “Thanks to Brett Favre’s shoulder and the Metrodome’s roof, the Bears have a great chance to quickly put that thrashing from the Pats behind them.”
