Why Bet on Chicago versus Las Vegas?

Fields has spent this entire week practicing with the first unit. The practice time, and the experience he gained when leading Chicago to a 24-14 win against the rival Lions last Sunday, should set him up for success.

Why Bet on Las Vegas versus Chicago?

On Oct. 4, the Los Angeles Chargers blasted Las Vegas 28-14, but the Raiders had excuses. The game happened at SoFi Stadium, and Vegas was due for a letdown after playing two overtime games in their first three and beating Pittsburgh on the road in week 2.

Chicago Bears versus Las Vegas Raiders Final Betting Prediction

The Raiders must worry about left tackle Kolton Miller’s status, but other than that, Las Vegas has major advantages. Vegas quarterback Derek Carr is a veteran who is having a great season.

The Bears’ offense remains a mess. It averages less than 17 points per. More disturbing if you’re a Chicago fan?

The defense gave up 17 points to the lowly Detroit Lions and 26 to the Cleveland Browns in week 3. Also, top defender Kahlil Mack is listed as questionable.

No doubt, Fields played well enough to lead the Bears past the Lions. But that game happened at home. On the road, Field will find things much more difficult. Raiders cover.
