Saints vs. Bears Odds
Game Preview
Spencer Rattler had no touchdown passes nor interceptions against a very good Patriots’ defense. He was 20-for-26, recording 227 passing yards, playing more or less rational football, yet he failed to deliver. His performance in Chicago will tell us a lot about his current form and whether he has evolved since the season kicked off.
RB Alvin Kamara is in the headlines, with some outlets claiming he might be traded over the next few weeks. This is one of the most productive players in the NFL, and his current situation is what interests the Saints’ fans the most.
The Chicago Bears have 3 wins in a row. Yes, THREE. The previous two against the Raiders and the Commanders on Monday Night Football were with the same result, 25-24. Jake Moody’s 38-yard field goal with the time expiring secured a win for Chicago, which came back in the final quarter.
Bears’ defense made the difference here, forcing 3 turnovers, two fumbles, and one interception. On the other hand, the offense was stable enough not to lose a single possession.
Saints vs. Bears Head to Head
There were 34 games involving these two franchises, and the Saints lead 19-15.
Saints vs. Bears Predictions
Saints are better than before, but so are the Bears, who showed a winning mentality in the past two tight games. Because of that, their rising defense and the home-field edge, we bet on Chicago to cover a 5.5-point spread and win.
