The Washington Commanders look awful right now, as the offense has no running game and they’re 28th in scoring offense. Washington is also disappointing defensively, ranked 19th in passing defense and 26th in scoring defense. The Chicago Bears have issues of their own, but they’ve played their best ball at home, they’re fifth in rushing offense and ninth in passing defense. The Bears have also had a tough schedule that includes several road games. The Bears have a chance to breathe here. Give me the Bears at home in this pick ’em spot.
