Lean – Chicago (+13.5/+14) over PHILADELPHIA

Lean – Under (44)

This matchup features two of the league’s top rushing offenses and I expect both to feature a heavy dose of the ground game on Sunday, which will keep the clock moving. The Bears run the football on 48% of plays (2nd) while gaining 4.5 yards per rush (6th) including 222 yards on the ground last week. Philadelphia’s rush rate is also 48% this season and they are gaining 4.6 ypr (4th) including 215 rushing yards last game.

Chicago’s two most important defensive players are Prince Amukamara, 4th among cornerbacks in yards per cover snap, and play-caller Danny Trevathan, 3rd-fewest misses per attempted tackle among inside linebackers. The Bears have held opponents under 5 yards per play in five of the six games both Amukamara and Trevathan have been in the lineup this season with the only exception on the road against a very good New Orleans attack.

Our model likes the under but Trevathan has been downgraded to doubtful this week so Chicago’s defense won’t be as good as normal (I adjusted 1.7 points). However, Philadelphia’s defense surrenders 5.0 yppl (7th) and they should not have much trouble stopping the Bears 23rd-ranked offense. There is still some value on the Under and I’ll also lean with Chicago plus the points.
