Why bet on Chicago versus Green Bay?

In their last couple of games, the Chicago Bears have shown they can hang with a team like the Green Bay Packers. The Bears beat Detroit by 10 and then beat Las Vegas 20-9 as a 5.5 road underdog. Not only that, but Chicago QB Justin Fields has become comfortable under center. Fields wasn’t spectacular in the win over the Raiders. But he threw for 111 yards and a TD without a pick.

Green Bay Packers versus Chicago Bears Final Betting Prediction

Green Bay appears to have the edge based on trends. But based on visuals, the Bears are the play.

Chicago doesn’t have a great offense. However, Andy Dalton and Justin Fields got some playing time in the impressive victory over the Raiders. Because Da Bears beat the Raiders 20-9, it’s safe to say Chicago’s D has gelled.

The Bears aren’t a bad team. They’ve stepped it up in their last couple and have gone 3-1 ATS in their last 4. The more Fields plays, the better he gets.

Green Bay has covered in 4 straight, but the Packers required overtime to get the ATS victory against the Bengals. The Pack could be vulnerable here after coming off a tough game against Cincinnati while the Bears have improved week-to-week. Chicago is the play.
