Following their stunning loss to the Miami Dolphins last week, the Baltimore Ravens (6-3) will take on the Chicago Bears (3-6) in Week 11. The Bears will host the Ravens at Soldier Field on Sunday afternoon, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Ravens vs. Bears odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.
The Ravens still look like the best team in the AFC North but their 22-10 loss to the Dolphins is concerning. They’ve now lost two of their last three, both by double-digits, and have injury concerns to deal with, too.
Baltimore leads the NFL in rushing and ranks 10th in net yards per pass attempt, so they’re moving the ball on offense. But, Baltimore’s defense is allowing 24.1 points per game, 22nd in the NFL.
The Bears gain the second-fewest yards per game in the NFL and allow the 13th-most, so they have not played very well this season.
Despite losing their last four games, however, they’ve scored 49 total points in their last two contests against the 49ers and Steelers. Fresh off a bye, this team should continue to improve with Justin Fields at QB.

Ravens at Bears odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Ravens 27, Bears 20
Money line
Even though the Ravens were embarrassed by the Dolphins, I’m treating that game as an outlier, being on a short week after an overtime win.
The Bears are 19th in yards per rush allowed and have allowed the 11th-most rushing yards in the NFL, so they could have trouble against the Ravens’ ground game.
And when it comes to Baltimore’s defense, it should have success against the rookie Fields, who has thrown eight interceptions and struggled under pressure.
BET the RAVENS (-270) to win outright.
Against the spread
The Ravens haven’t covered the spread in any of their last three games and now sit at 3-6 ATS this season. The Bears are one game better at 4-5 ATS, but neither team has been great against the spread.
BET the RAVENS -6.5 (-105) to cover.
Over/Under
The total has gone Over in two of the Ravens’ last three games, and the same goes for the Bears, too. The Over is 5-4 in the Ravens’ nine games this season, helped by Baltimore’s 25.7 points per game and below-average defense.
The Ravens aren’t even scoring as much as they should, either, ranking second in total yards but only 12th in points. If they can convert in the red zone, the points will flow.
BET the OVER 44.5 (-105).
