QB Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks (5-9) host the Chicago Bears (4-10) Sunday for a Week 16 matchup. Kickoff from Lumen Field is at 4:05 p.m. ET as both of these teams try to end their seasons on a high note in the final month. Below, we look at the Bears vs. Seahawks odds and lines; check back for our NFL picks and predictions.
The Bears fell to the Minnesota Vikings 17-9 Monday night. Chicago will try to snap a three-game losing streak after suffering losses to the Green Bay Packers and Arizona Cardinals the two weeks prior. The Bears have failed to cover the spread in five consecutive games. They’ve lost eight of their last nine games straight up, putting head coach Matt Nagy even further on the hot seat.
The Seahawks lost at the Los Angeles Rams 20-10 Tuesday in a game that was originally scheduled for Sunday but was postponed due to COVID-19. After dropping six of seven games between Oct. 7-Nov. 29, the Seahawks won their first two games of December by beating the San Francisco 49ers and Houston Texans, but the Rams ended the brief winning streak. The Seahawks are still last in the NFC West and 20th in scoring, despite their defense allowing just the fourth-most points in the NFL.
