Bears vs. Jaguars Pick

• My Pick: Bears to cover the spread at -1.5 (-115) via FanDuel

We have a game in London for the second week in a row. 

The Jaguars are a team that’s used to playing in London, but here, they take on a Bears team that’s seen massive improvements from quarterback Caleb Williams. He’s thrown for 300-plus yards in two of the last three games. 

The Jaguars allow nearly 300 passing yards and two touchdowns per game and don’t have a single interception this season. 

The Bears will have too much offense for the Jaguars in this one.

Bears vs. Jaguars Predictions 

As mentioned, Williams’s play has improved lately. Over his last three games, he’s thrown for 304 yards or more twice and has just two interceptions. 

In Week 5, his yards per attempt was up to 10.5, which was a single-game high. 

This game came against the Carolina Panthers, but the Jaguars are one of the worst defenses in the league. 

The Jaguars are allowing close to 26 completions per game for almost 300 yards and two passing touchdowns. They haven’t had a single interception all season. 

Opposing quarterbacks have also run for 22 yards or more in three of five games this season. 

Running backs only average 3.81 yards per carry, but the Bears have a running back, D’Andre Swift, who's an excellent pass-catcher, and the Jaguars struggle against those.

This season, running backs are averaging close to seven catches for 57 yards per game. 

As for the Jaguars offense, they’ll take on a Bears defense, allowing less than 195 passing yards per game. They’ve also only allowed two passing touchdowns and have six interceptions. 

The Jaguars' best shot is running the ball. The Bears allow 4.97 yards per carry over 100 rushing yards and a touchdown per game.

Running back Travis Etienne’s status is up in the air ahead of this game. If he sits, Tank Bigsby will get the start. 

He had 13 carries for 101 yards and two touchdowns against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5. 

While the Jaguars could exploit the Bears defense, it’s only via the run. I don’t think the Jaguars passing attack will be able to do much. 

The Bears offense has a lot of firepower, including three excellent receivers, an improving quarterback, and a stable of running backs who can run and catch. 

Look for the Bears to win in London. 

Bears vs. Jaguars Best Player Props

The following prop bets are courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook. Using promo code WSN1000 during account creation at Caesars, you’ll get your first wager back if it loses up to $1,000.

Let’s check out some prop bets. 

Caleb Williams 2+ Passing Touchdowns (+100 at Caesars Sportsbook)

I mentioned it a couple of times already, but the Jaguars pass defense simply cannot stop anyone. In a season where passing statistics are down across the NFL, the Jaguars still allow two passing touchdowns and almost 300 yards per game. 

The Jaguars have allowed two passing touchdowns or more in each of their last three games.

The Jaguars also have trouble against pass-catching running backs. Against receivers, they allow over 210 yards and a touchdown per game.

The spread in this game is close enough to where I think passing throughout will be in the game script. Williams showed in Week 5 that he can reach two passing touchdowns with less than 30 attempts. 

Get this prop at +100.

Trevor Lawrence Over 0.5 Interceptions (-139 at Caesars Sportsbook)

Coming in at -139, I’ll lean over on the interceptions for Lawrence. 

He’s been avoiding interceptions with just two this season, though they’ve come in the last three games, including Week 5. 

According to Pro Football Focus, Lawrence has six turnover-worthy plays, meaning he’s gotten away with some errant throws. 

The Bears have at least one interception in every game except Week 2 this season. 

Lawrence has been able to get by with minimal turnovers, but he’ll have another this week against a stout Bears defense.

D’Andre Swift Over 16.5 Receiving Yards (-121 at Caesars Sportsbook)

This season, Swift has seen 19 targets and has caught 15 of them for 165 yards. 

In Week 5, he caught two passes for 47 yards. 

In Week 4, he had seven catches for 72 yards. 

Swift has gone over this 16.5 number in each of the last four games and takes on a Jaguars defense that allows nearly seven receptions for 57 yards against opposing running backs. 

Look for Swift to sail way over this number.
