Prediction: Bears win 27-19

Frankly, this is a game the Bears should win by a healthy margin. They’re at home and facing a team that has half its roster on the injured list. Even so, Chicago is in a bit of a funk at the moment and are trying to recapture the momentum they had before the bye week. Wins don’t typically come easy during times like this. It could end up being a sloppy game.

Both defenses are known for creating lots of turnovers and both quarterbacks are known for being a bit too generous with the ball at times. That will be the stat that defines the outcome of this game. Which team can play with the most discipline? The Bears will probably get off to a rough start, as they typically do but will assert control late and grind out a win.
