Saints vs Bears Prediction

In their previous meeting in 2023, the Saints won 24-17 at home, and have won their last 8 meetings against the Bears, including their last four visits in Chicago. Under is 6-2 in their last 8 meetings.

In this Saints vs Bears Prediction, the Bears are coming as -5.5-point home favorites, with the total set at 46.5 points. New Orleans has been terrible this season, with just one win in six games, having lost both of their road games by 12 and 31 points. On the flip side, Chicago has been red-hot lately, with three straight wins and covers, and is better both offensively and defensively than the Saints, who rank on the bottom-8 of the league in both of categories. I don’t expect a struggling New Orleans squad to be competitive on the road, as they have been losing by an average of 8.2 points this season. Take the Chicago Bears and lay the -5.5 points at home in this one.
