RECORD THIS YEAR POSTED IS 34-23 (right at 60%) UNITS WON AND LOST IS 78-51 (right at 60.5%)
MNF Patriots -8 (2 units)
This game is more about trajectory for me than anything else... Pats in last 3 weeks have been quietly one of the best defenses in the NFL, while the Bears really have nothing to point to - they are close to the bottom in every offensive and defensive stat that matters.
I realize the temptation to take 8 here, and I rarely lay this kind of points in the NFL - but this is a spot to do it.

Week 1 - SF, held Trey Lance an unseasoned QB to 160 yards playing in the wetlands of Soldier Field. NOTE: 49ers rushing game as a unit played great.
Week 2 - GB, Rodgers had no issues throwing against the Bears. NOTE: Aaron Jones ran all over da Bears.
Week 3 - HOU, the Bears made Davis Mills look like Davis Mills, good passing yards with a few turnovers mixed in. NOTE: Dameon Pierce ran well against the Bears.
Week 4 - NYG, Bears shut down Daniel Jones completely, will give you that, but he is not a very good passer. Jones is a mobile QB that fits the mold of a game manager type. NOTE: Saquon Barkley ran all over them.
Week 5 - MIN, Kirk Cousins had a pretty good passing game against them. NOTE: Dalvin Cook ran all over the Bears.
Week 6 - WAS, Bears shut down Carson Wentz and the Washington running game BUT they happen to be one of the worst teams in the league as a unit particularly on the offensive side of the ball.
Summary > in 3/6 games Bears shut down Trey Lance, Daniel Jones, and an aging Carson Wentz... not saying Mac Jones is a world beater by any means but I have to believe he'll have better success against the Bears than any of those three.
So in 5/6 games this season, teams have been able to run on the Bears with ease. The Patriots have a good rushing attack that the Bears won't be able to stop.

Am on the Patriots as well, they should have no problem covering.
Rhamondre Stevenson is averaging over 5 ypc on the ground. His rushing prop is definitely something worth taking a look at. Good running backs have had no issue against the Bears.
- Good luck with your bets
