Chicago Bears Game Notes

Indianapolis Colts Game Notes

Bears vs. Colts BETTING PREDICTION
Take the Over. Caleb Williams has much more favorable matchup against this Colts defense that has not looked good this season and will be without their Pro Bowl DT DeForest Buckner. Williams will be just fine, despite starting the season low. On the other side, Indy should be able to move the ball just fine back at home in perfect conditions in an early desperation spot. For a total in the low 40’s this feels short.
Bears vs. Colts Prediction: Over 43.5
