NFL Week 7 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Bears vs. Patriots

The Bears get extended time to figure out if they fix their problems on offense. The offensive line has been horrendous, and Justin Fields has been sacked a league 23 times. You rarely see them give Justin Fields a clean pocket.

Now they’ll be coming into the pressure environment of Foxboro against a Patriots’ defense who recently blanked the best-scoring offense in the NFL. The Patriots are once again one of the better defenses in the league, as they’re sixth in sacks per game and seventh in points allowed.

Even if it’s Bailey Zappe in at quarterback, he’s been great since stepping in a couple of weeks ago. This could be a massive rout for the Pats.

New England Patriots -7.5 (-110)
