The last time Chicago covered the spread at home against Washington, Walter Payton scored a TD and threw a TD pass to Jim McMahon in a 45-10 drubbing Sept. 29, 1985.
Since then, the Bears have hosted Washington nine times and covered zero times. In fact, they won just once back in 2003.
So, a line that opened -1 for the dreadful Commanders was quickly bet to -1 for the dreadful Bears in the Week 6 Monday Nighter. Washington seems to hate their defensive coach and HC Ron Rivera threw Carson Wentz firmly under the bus after their Week 5 loss. What a mess…
Of note, Wentz has never lost on Thursday night (6-0 SU).
