Larry Borom's absence on the Chicago Bears' O-line is a headache for the offense and Andy Dalton. Tight end Jimmy Graham should be ready to go come game time, and that is a boost for a Bears offense that needs red zone help.

Robert Quinn, Darnell Mooney, and Marquise Goodwin are all questionable. However, they participated in practice on Friday. The big question surrounds Jason Peters' status. The veteran lineman, who suffered an injury in the Rams game, is another problem for the Bears.

Bengals safety Ricardo Allen won't be playing Sunday. Allen's absence will be compounded further by veteran cornerback Trae Waynes' injury. The defensive backfield for the Bengals will miss these two players.

The Bengals did list Joe Burrow on the injury report, but it was just a precautionary move. Markus Bailey and Darius Phillips are questionable, although Phillips is trending towards playing on Sunday. He participated in Friday's practice.
