What? The Bears favored by 4.5 points? Oh, wait... They beat the Broncos last week and they’re playing the Cardinals on Sunday. That explains it – sort of. I still think it’s ludicrous to lay points with a team that ranks dead last in offense. Don’t expect the Bears to chalk up back-to-back wins – expect them to come back down to earth. Poor defensive teams off a close loss cover the spread about two thirds of the time in their next game if they’re a medium-sized dog. Arizona nearly (and should’ve) beat St. Louis last week. They are at least as good as Chicago and probably better. Take the points.
