Chicago Bears
Chicago lost the Commanders last week by a score of 18-15. The Bears were winning 15-12 before Jayden Daniels tossed up a hail mary 5 yards short of the end zone but got tipped into the hands of a receiver. Before that play the Commanders were held out of the end zone. Caleb Williams struggled in this matchup, completing just 10 of 24 pass attempts for 131 yards. The Bears also fumbled on the one yard line after trying to hand off to a lineman. D’Andre Swift had his biggest game of the season taking 18 carries 129 yards for a touchdown.
Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals are riding high after winning their second straight game on a game winning Chad Ryland field goal. Last Sunday it was a 28-27 win over the Miami Dolphins. Kyler Murray completed 26 passes for 307 yards and 2 touchdowns. The rushing attack struggled for just 3.2 yards a carry. Trey McBride led receivers with 9 receptions for 124 yards but rookie Marvin Harrison was right behind him with 6 receptions for 111 yards and a touchdown.

Bears vs. Cardinals Prediction:
Take the Bears in this matchup. Caleb Williams looked very rusty against the Commanders coming out of the bye and Chicago still should have won. Williams should be able to get back on track against a Cardinals defense that allows 7.6 yards per pass attempt (29th in NFL) and 235 pass yards per game (26th in NFL). Arizona also struggles against the run allowing 4.6 yards per carry. D’Andre Swift should have another solid game on the ground. Defensively, the Bears have the 4th ranked team in opponent points per game only giving up 17. They just played a dual threat QB last week in Jayden Daniels and held the Commanders out of the end zone until the very last play. The Chicago defense also played very well against Anthony Richardson, holding him to 24 rushing yards and picking him off twice. The defense should be able to slow down the Cardinals and the offense should get back on track. Take the Bears on Sunday.
Bears vs. Cardinals Prediction: Bears +2
