The Story
The Chicago Bears visit the Seattle Seahawks for Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET from Lumen Field in Seattle.
Seattle is listed as a 3.5-point favourite, while the over/under on total points is set at 46.5.
Chicago enters the matchup at 5-2 and is second in the NFC North, while Seattle is 4-3 and second in the NFC West.
The Bears are coming off a 30-24 win over the New England Patriots on Oct. 22, while the Seahawks defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 20-3 in Week 7.
On the injury front, Chicago running back Kyle Monangai is listed as out with a thumb/toe issue, while Seattle offensive tackle Charles Cross is also ruled out with an ankle injury. Seattle running back Jadarian Price has been reinstated from injured reserve and is set to play.
Defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons is active for Chicago after being traded from the Titans last Thursday.
A betting model described as simulating every NFL game 10,000 times says the Over 46.5 is the top lean, projecting the game to reach 49 combined points as the Over hits 52% of the time.
The model notes the Over has cashed in seven of the last 10 head-to-head matchups, including a 49-point total in the teams’ most recent meeting in Seattle on Dec. 26, 2021.
For individual production, the Bears are paced by quarterback Caleb Williams, who in four starts has completed 71% of his passes for 1,020 yards with five touchdowns and one interception, while Chicago is eighth in the league in points scored at 25.7 per game.
Seattle counters with quarterback Sam Darnold, who in six starts has completed 62.1% of his passes for 1,290 yards with eight touchdowns and has been intercepted eight times, as the Seahawks average 24 points per game (13th-best in the NFL).
