CHICAGO @ L.A. RAMS | 10/26 | 8:15 PM EDT
The Bears come into this matchup with the eighth ranked defense in the NFL, allowing 337 yards per game. The Rams have been even better, ranking sixth at 318 yards per game. Chicago allows just 19.3 points per game and Los Angeles allows 19. Aaron Donald leads the NFC with 7.5 sacks. The Bears are 31st in the NFL in rushing, while the Rams are eighth. Both teams will try to establish the run and short passing games. The Under is 4-2 for both teams. The Under is 10-1 in Chicago’s last 11 games following an ATS win. The Under is 6-0 in Los Angeles’ last six games in October and 5-0 in the Rams’ last five games in Week 7.

The Bears have just one loss on the season, to the Colts, but they do have a good win over the Buccaneers. The Rams have played a tougher schedule to date with losses to the 49ers and the Bills. Nick Foles is 2-1 as a starter and has kept his team in just about every game. Foles will have to get the ball out quickly and not turn it over if the Bears are going to have a chance to win this game. Los Angeles is just 2-7-1 ATS in its last 10 Monday night games, while Chicago has covered in four straight Monday nighters. The Bears are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings.

The Rams are getting too much respect after going 4-0 against the NFC East. I make the Rams -1.8 on a neutral site and -3.7 in a 2020 "home" game. I don't think the Bears are as strong as their 5-1 record, but this line should be +4 instead of +6. Take the points.

Generally I like to look at the team with the better defense when they are getting points and that would be Chicago. The Bears have played the tougher schedule so far as well but even with that said I’m not sold on the Bears here. The Chicago offense has scored just 54 points or 18 PPG over their last 3 games (with Foles). Chicago has only faced two teams with a winning record and they scored 11 and 20 points against those teams. Chicago plays for the second week in a row on the road which is a disadvantage. The Rams just finished a nightmare from a scheduling stand point as when they went to San Francisco they had played 4 of their last 5 games on the road including traveling to the East Coast 3 times in 4 weeks. Last weeks loss to San Francisco was excusable as the 49ers were basically in a Must Win situation and they delivered. So I’ll give the Rams a pass for that loss. Chicago in it’s last 3 games have become a one dimensional team having rushed for 28,35 and 63 yards. You can’t win in the NFL without better balance. The Rams can stretch the field whereas I haven’t got that same feeling with the Bears and Nick Foles at the controls. LA RAMS 28-17. TAKE LA RAMS as my 3% MNF WINNER.Comment

The Rams have four wins against two losses, and the four wins are against the teams that comprise the NFC East (Dallas, Washington, Philadelphia, and the NY Giants). The two losses were at Buffalo and San San Francisco. The Bears have one home loss in a low-scoring 19-11 game t the Indianapolis Colts in Week 4. They defeated Tampa Bay 20-19 in Week 5 and followed that up with a 23-16 road win at Carolina.
My power ratings rank the Bears as the 11th-best NFL team overall. They rank 22nd in total offense, split between a 25th ranking in the passing game and 17th rank in their ground attack. By comparison, the Rams rank 9th overall, 8th in passing, and 10th in their ground attack. However, when these metrics adjusted for strength of schedule (SOS), the Rams drop down the rankings listed as an average NFL team.
The significant advantage for the Nears is their defense that ranks 3rd-best overall in the NFL. Khalil Mack is the heart and soul of the defensive unit and has played at Pro-Bowl caliber levels in each of the first six games. He has played on 360 snaps attaining 29 pressures broken down to include five sacks, 21 quarterback hurries, and three quarterback hits. Linebacker Roquan Smith known for his speed and coverage excellence, leads the Bears with 41 tackles.
The Bears defensive unit has allowed just four receiving touchdowns on the season, ranking best in the NFL, with the Dolphins and Colts ranked second allowing seven touchdowns.The Bears have achieved these results without relying on using the blitz, ranking 25th with a 19% blitz percentage of plays. Their secondary and linebacker coverage is elite, and Rams QB Goff will struggle to complete passes. The Bears defensive front can contain the Rams ground attack rendering the Rams play-action pass plays useless.
The reason play action works is that the linebackers must respect a ground attack. The Bears do not need to blitz Goff and do not have to bring their safeties closer to the line-of-scrimmage to stop the run. Whether the Bears play a bracket-zone or man scheme, the Rams receivers will have trouble getting separation from the defenders making throws hard to complete.
Nick Foles has not set the world on fire since taking over the starting QB position from the much-maligned Mitch Trubisky. His QBR is lower than Trubisky, but Foles wins. Just as he did in the 2016 regular season and culminating in the Super Bowl Championship and an MVP award for the Philadelphia Eagles. I am not suggesting a futures bet just yet on the Bears, but they are a united offensive unit when he is on the field, and Foles somehow makes the entire team better.
Here is a great betting system that has earned a 37-9 ATS mark, good for 79% winners over the last 7 seasons. The requirements are to bet on underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points facing an opponent that failed to force a turnover in each of their last two games.
From the machine learning models, the Bears defense shall contain Rams defense to a 30% or lower third-down percentage and score a minimum of 21 points. In past games in which the Bears met or exceeded, this pair of performance measures has earned them a 54-9 SU record for 86% wins and a 52-9-2 ATS record for 85% winning bets that covered the spread by a minimum of 11 points.
Take the Bears and the points.Comment
