Washington at Chicago

The Washington Redskins missed a golden opportunity to take the undisputed top rung in the soft NFC East on Monday Night at home vs. Dallas. What they succeeded in doing was to allow Dallas at 4-8 to get back in the race, while all the other teams are 5-7 and fighting at the top. Washington has not won on the road since October 12th of last season. The fact is they are a three-point win at Dallas in their last 19 road games from being 0-19 SU on the road. The Bears are 5-7, and have certainly been a better team than what they looked like at the beginning of the season. The Bears are getting healthier at WR, and QB Jay Cutler has settled into a pretty good year. Cutler has reduced his INTs from 18 last season, to just seven this year. This game isn't so much about Chicago as it is about Washington, as the Skins have been so inept on the road that it has to be in their heads now. Kirk Cousins, included, who owns a 1-10 SU record as a starter on the road for his career. Play Chicago to win this one straight-up. Also take the OVER. The Skins have allowed 32.4 points per game this season ont he road while Chicago has given up an average of 27.5 at home. With a total set this low, it doesn't take much offense to get there. Back the Bears and the OVER.
