Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Chicago Bears NFL London Preview
I imagine the entire world's going to be betting on the Bears, and that’s what our Public Betting report indicates.
For me, the two most overrated teams in the NFL in Week 6, just based on record and maybe perception, are the Buccaneers – because of their fluke win at the Lions and beating a banged-up Eagles team – and the Bears.
Chicago is 3-2 but could easily be 1-4.
I was wrong on the Panthers last week, but if you look at that game, the Panthers lost more defensive guys and two offensive linemen, which was the Panthers’ biggest strength. I would have liked Carolina this week again against the Falcons but need +7, because it has one really, really good aspect of its team, and that’s the offensive line. Two starters go down last week against the Bears, and they get blown out.
That was a good performance from the Bears, but they got extremely lucky against the Rams the week before, laying three and facing a practice-squad-level defense that they didn’t light up. Los Angeles, without Puka Nacua or Cooper Kupp and its best offensive line, outplayed Chicago and was a hard-luck loser.
The week before, the Bears lost on the road to the Colts. People said Caleb Williams showed improvement in that game, but his performance in Indy came against one of the worst defenses.
The Bears were favored by four over the Panthers and three over the Rams. So, with this line, we’re saying that Jacksonville is basically equal to a Carolina team that’s worse than that Rams practice squad.
I don’t think so.
Williams has struggled more against man coverage this season, and he’s going to see a lot of that here. The Jaguars defense isn’t great, but I’m not sold on the Bears offensive line and I think they’ll get pressure on Williams.
While I like that the Bears went over to England and practiced there all week, the Jaguars have more experience in this spot and their staff will have them ready to go. I’m on the Jags this week.
Pick: Jaguars +1.5
