Chicago Bears Betting Trends

The health of Justin Fields will dominant headlines in the lead-up to this game.

Although the Bears have lost 4 straight contests, Fields electric play has at least kept the team competitive. Fields has thrilled Bears fans while pulling off his best Lamar Jackson impression over the past three weeks, rushing 46 times for 410 yards. It’s been a delight to watch the Bears finally unleash their true offensive potential.

That being said, Fields’ injury is a stark reminder of the dangers of exposing a dual-threat quarterback to constant hits. Without their star pivot, the Bears are a rudderless ship lost at sea. Be sure to check on the Ohio State products’ status before placing your bets.

New York Jets Betting Trends

New York has plenty of quarterback problems of their own. Former second-overall pick Zach Wilson refused to accept responsibility for his team’s failure after passing for only 77 yards in a dreadful performance against the New England Patriots. The backlash began almost immediately, with Jets defensive players liking tweets criticizing their quarterback.

Mercilessly, head coach Robert Saleh has finally decided to make a change. Rather than watch his team suffer due to the play of Wilson, the Jets have shifted into win-now mode in a bid to end their 11-year playoff drought. Saleh announced that Western Kentucky alum Mike White would start this week’s game.

As you’ll recall, White jumped to immediate fame last season, throwing for 405 yards and 3 touchdowns in an upset of the Cincinnati Bengals.

Importantly, New York is 4-0 against the spread in their last four games following an against the spread loss. Moreover, the Jets are tied for 4th in the NFL with 32 sacks, while the Bears have given up a league-high 40. Look for a commanding Jets front seven to dominate proceedings on Sunday.

Chicago Bears vs New York Jets Prediction

Predicting the outcome of this Chicago Bears vs New York Jets contest is completely contingent on Justin Fields’ health. As of writing, Fields is listed as a game-time decision. However, Bears’ insider Brad Biggs reports that the team is likely to turn to backup Trevon Siemian for Sunday’s contest.

While Chicago has lost their last three games by a combined seven points, it’s difficult to envision this team keeping the game close against a motivated Jets squad without Fields. With the possibility of facing a backup quarterback, betting on the Jets is the value play right now.
