Bears at Packers picks and predictions
Prediction
Packers 29, Bears 10
Money line
PASS on the money line.
The Packers have beaten the Bears 6 straight times and in 11 of the last 12 meetings. Rodgers is 22-5 in his career against the Bears.
The Bears have not won in Green Bay since 2015.
But at -500 odds, there is no reason to bet the money line. PASS.
Against the spread
The Packers were blown out on the road in Week 1 in 2021, but followed that up with an 18-point win over a division rival in Week 2 at home.
The stage is set again.
The Packers have beaten the Bears by at least 10 points 4 straight times. They had 7 wins of at least 10 points last season.
Take the PACKERS -9.5 (-115).
Over/Under
Both teams saw their Week 1 games stay Under their projected totals. The Bears and 49ers combined for 29 points, while the Packers and Vikings combined for 30 points.
The Bears were 7-10 O/U last season and the Packers were 8-10 O/U.
In their 2 matchups last season, one game had 38 points as the total and the other was 75.
Expect the Chicago offense to struggle and the Packers offense to have an easy time, although with an early lead, they will be able to run the ball a lot in the 2nd half.
Take UNDER 41.5 (-108).
