Commanders vs Bears Week 6 Picks

POINT SPREAD: Washington Commanders PICK (-110) at Caesars

POINTS TOTAL: Under 46 (-110) at BetMGM

MONEY LINE: Wash. Commanders (-110) at FanDuel

The Commanders are better than the Bears on both sides of the ball, plus they also have the advantage of veteran QB Carson Wentz who has completed almost 63 percent of his passes this season compared with Chicago’s starter under center Justin Fields who has only completed 55.7% of his passes.

Washington is a top-10 passing offense, but its rushing attack is ranked 28th in the league with RB Antonio Gibson averaging just 3.2 yards per carry this season, though thankfully they will be facing a Chicago rush defense that is second worst in the league after allowing opponents to gain over 170 yards on the ground per game, a total lead killer in the fourth quarter at times.

The oddsmakers have this one as about even so if you are going to break open your betting kitty for this one just pick the team you feel could have a solid outing, whether it’s the Commanders because they finally won a game or the Bears because they are playing at home, a victory critical to both teams here since conference wins will count towards playoff tiebreakers.

Points Total: Under 46 (-110) at BetMGM

When the 19th (Washington) and 31st (Chicago) ranked offenses square off against each other some math is in order for a points total bet like this one, and the oddsmakers are predicting these teams will score 46 points together, an optimistic assessment once you take a look at the totals they have accumulated so far this year.

The Commanders top-20 offense has produced an average of 18 points per game while the Bears 31st ranked offense has generated just 17.2 points per game, and that total – 35.2 – is well under what the pros think they will score so at first glance that seems to be the best bet here, though that total does not take into account how much scoring each defense allows.

The Commanders defense typically allows opponents to score 25.6 points per game and the Bears allow the teams they play to score 21.2 points each time, and that total – 46.8 – is just a shade over the bet so keep that in mind when you are making this wager, plus check for key injuries since both teams are already banged up with multiple players listed as questionable.

Money Line: Washington Commanders (-110) at FanDuel

Again, this is a straight-up bet that (for newer sports bettors) breaks down like this – you must place a $104 bet on the Washington Commanders or a $112 bet for the Chicago Bears to win outright in order to win back your initial investment plus another $100 with neither team particularly favored to win this money line bet.

Here are some key matchups to watch out for that could change the outcome of this game: Washington CB Kendall Fuller will most likely cover Chicago’s deep threat receiver Equanimeous St. Brown while the Commanders LT Charles Leno Jr. battles Bears pass rushing DE Robert Quinn to protect Wash. QB Carson Wentz, the NFL’s 2nd most sacked QB with 20.

Be sure to shop around to get the best odds possible since the odds of this PICK ‘EM bet could change one game time arrives, also watch for any serious fall weather changes since this game is being played in Chicago and Soldier Field is not yet covered and is located right off balmy Lake Michigan, and these semi-disgruntled hometown Chicago fans perhaps not a factor here.
