On BettorEdge, 80% of open interest is sitting on the Bears at -244. That is peer-to-peer money set by real bettors, not a sportsbook shading lines toward their margin. The fair price in the markets is -244 for Chicago and +245 for Tampa Bay. Head to the board and set your own number.
The Matchup
Chicago is 6-2, averaging 26.8 points per game while allowing 20.0, and has won three straight. Tampa Bay is 3-5, giving up just 18.9 points per game, but the offense has been inconsistent at 22.3 per game. The Buccaneers are actually 2-1 on the road this season, so the away record is not the concern; it is the overall body of work. Common opponents offer a mixed read: against the Vikings, both teams lost, though Chicago's margin was tighter; against Green Bay, Tampa Bay kept it close while Chicago was blown out; against Carolina and Atlanta, both teams won, with Chicago doing so more emphatically.
