The Chicago Bears (3-4) are on the road again, heading west to Texas after spending last week in Massachusetts. The Bears will take on the Cowboys (5-2) and are a 9.5-point underdog.
Dallas has one of the best pass rushes in the NFL led by All-Pro Micah Parsons and a strong supporting cast. Parsons and company lead the NFL in sacks and pressure rate which will pose a challenge for the Bears’ offensive line.
The Bears do have momentum coming off a 33-14 blowout win over New England. Chicago’s offense and defense both looked great – scoring the most points of the season and forcing four turnovers.
It will be a tough week for the Bears on the road, but the Cowboys are without leading rusher Ezekiel Elliott and quarterback Dak Prescott is only playing in his third game of the season.
