4. Chicago Bears (+7) at Baltimore Ravens

Maybe what we saw on Monday night is a sign of good things to come from the quarterbacking position in Chicago? Rookie Mitchell Trubisky gave the lowly Chicago Bears a chance to win the game against the rival Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football. So what does Las Vegas think?

Chicago is getting seven points on the road against the Baltimore Ravens. Sure, the Bears are getting a short week, but keep in mind that the Ravens had to travel across the country to return home from their Week 5 road win over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.

Baltimore put up points on the awful Raiders defense, but it won’t be that easy for Joe Flacco to rack up yards against a feisty Bears team. Will Baltimore end up winning this game? Probably, but laying seven points at home feels a bit much.

Keep in mind that the Bears’ lone win this season came against the Ravens’ arch rival in the Pittsburgh Steelers, a team that pummeled the Ravens in Baltimore back in Week 4. Baltimore will probably win by a field goal, maybe five points, but it wouldn’t be shocking to see the Bears upset the Ravens this week.
