Bears vs. Commanders Odds
Game Preview
Chicago Bears (2-2) had enough time to scout the Commanders and prepare for this game. They headed for the bye week following back-to-back wins, one over the Cowboys and the other against the Raiders.
This team allows too many rushing yards, 164.5, being the second-worst in this category. Though we have to mention that the secondary is very good, and that it pressures the rivals well. CB Kevin Byard III has 3 interceptions so far, and is tied second in the league.
Wholesome: Commanders star rookie RB Bill Croskey-Merritt is absolutely giddy speaking with Tom Brady after winning Tom’s LFG Player of the Game.

Commanders (3-2) lost to the Falcons, but then beat the Chargers, 27-10. It was a big win not just because it took place in LA, but also because Washington came back from a 10-0 deficit.
Jacory Croskey-Merritt had 14 runs for 111 rushing yards and two touchdowns. The Commanders are 1st in the NFL in rushing yards, averaging 156.4 per game. They had 163 against the Chargers.
Bears vs. Commanders Head to Head
After 54 games, the record is slightly on the Commaders’ side, 28-25-1. They met last year in October when Washington won on the road, 18-15.
Bears vs. Commanders Predictions
The Chicago Bears are on the rise, and they will come to DC to look for a win. Meanwhile, after getting a big victory on the road, the Commanders are hyped up to get another one, plus it seems that Terry McLaurin will be ready for this event. We pick the hosts to triumph due to their more versatile attack, somewhat better defense, and a home-field advantage.
