Bears at Cardinals picks and predictions

Prediction

Cardinals 23, Bears 20

Moneyline

The Bears have not allowed more than 21 points this season, but they also are winless on the road and haven’t scored more than 16 points in those games.

This game is when those scoring trends change.

The Bears are No. 4 in scoring defense, allowing 17.0 points per game. But their 1 weakness is against the run. They allowed 4.7 yards per attempt and the Cardinals average 5.2 when they run the ball.

The Cardinals have allowed 20 or more points 5 times this season.

I’m giving the edge to the home team, and because the Cardinals have a pair of 1-point wins in their last 4 games, the -125 odds aren’t too much of a difference to lose a bet over 1 point.

BET CARDINALS (-125).

Against the spread

All 3 of the Bears’ losses have been at least 3 points, but the Cardinals’ 2 wins by 1-point in their last 4 games makes me want to avoid the spread.

PASS.

Over/Under

The Bears haven’t allowed over 21 points all season and have not scored more than 16 on the road. Even surpassing those numbers slightly won’t get this game Over the projected total.

All 3 Chicago losses had 35 or fewer points.

BET UNDER 44.5 (-110).
