Betting on the Buffalo Bills (-9.0)
Regular Season Record: 11-3
Buffalo edged Tua Tagovailoa and the visiting Miami Dolphins at home in Week 15, scoring a 32-29 win to extend the Bills’ win streak to five games. Bills quarterback Josh Allen was sensational as always in that game, as he passed for over 300 yards and tossed four touchdowns with zero interceptions on 25/40 completions while also rushing for 77 yards on 10 carries. It’s not hard to imagine the Josh Allen-led Bills attack wreaking havoc at Soldier Field against the Bears, who have arguably the worst defense in the league today.
The Under is 7-3 in the Bills’ last 10 games overall.
Betting on the Chicago Bears (+9.0)
Regular Season Record: 3-11
The Bears still couldn’t stop the bleeding. Coming off a bye in Week 14, the Bears got back on the field last Sunday and lost to the Philadelphia Eagles at home, 25-20. However, they lost just five points to the best team in the NFL right now, so there’s got to be some confidence the Bears drew from that contest. Like Allen, Justin Fields can deal damage on the air and on the ground. Against the Eagles, Fields went 14/21 for 152 passing yards and two touchdowns, and without an interception. He also rushed for 95 yards on 15 carries. If Buffalo relaxes at any point in Week 16, Fields could capitalize on it with his mobility and athleticism, especially when he finds his way out of the pocket.
The Over is 8-2 in the Bears’ last 10 games overall.
Writer’s Prediction
The Bills win, 33-23.
