Bears Commanders Pick, Fields Prop, Trends

Hands up everyone who trusts Washington – and its defense which has given up at least 30 PPG the past three weeks – with a 6-pint spread against the Chicago Bears?

That’s what I thought, hence the reason a ton of heavy Chicago Bears money has been flooding sportsbooks across America for the Week 5 Thursday Nighter.

Chicago has lost 14 straight games and might make it 15 here. But they have won 5 of 7 Thursday Nighters and the Commanders have been a disaster historically as big home favorites (3-16 ATS at -6 or greater).

Why the Bears can cover the spread

Chicago will win, eventually, and they get a 6-point cushion here for bettors. Justin Fields has been a disaster but showed signs of life last week vs the Broncos, even if they blew the lead and the game.

The Commanders defense has been atrocious and they come off an encouraging OT loss performance vs the Eagles.

Why the Commanders can cover the spread

Six points is a lot but the Bears have repeatedly shown an ability to fall apart. With a short week to prepare, the home team looks like a safe bet to win, and they are 8-2-1 SU in their past 11 games as favorites.

So many trends point to a Bears loss and failure to cover – 1-10-1 ATS past 12, 3-12 ATS past 15 vs Washington, 2-9 ATS on the road, 1-9 ATS in conference games, the list goes on and on.

Bears Commanders Pick

Lot of money rolled in midweek on the Bears, who were as high as +7 at some shops but sat at +6 at Draft Kings Wednesday. That indicates the professional bettors are taking the points and they are usually smarter than the rest of us.

Bears Commanders Prop Picks

Brian Robinson Anytime TD -115 – The Bears don’t stop the run and Robinson will get the red-zone chances here. This is easy money.

Justin Fields OVER 46.5 rushing yards – Enough of this shit, Fields will get flushed out by the Commanders pass rush and have a big day scrambling. Its what he does.
