TV: Fox, Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

Records: Giants 2-8, Bears 4-6

Line: Bears by 6½

Giants’ keys: Establish the run early with RB Saquon Barkley and attack the middle of Chicago’s defensive line, which has been thin with DT Akiem Hicks on injured reserve.

Bears’ keys: Get off to a fast start by establishing the run with RB David Montgomery.

Who wins? The Bears are still clinging to slim playoff chances and will be playing with a purpose. Bears 24, Giants 17
