This week's spread implies a rushing game script for the Bears, who are favored by 4.5 points.Based on their underlying traits and matchup dynamics, the predictive model expects the Chicago Bears to pass on 51.6% of their chances: the 3rd-lowest frequency on the slate this week.Our trusted projections expect the Bears to be the 6th-most run-focused team in the league near the goal line (in a neutral context) at the present time with a 47.4% red zone run rate.Windy weather conditions (like the 20-mph being predicted in this game) typically cause decreased passing efficiency, lower air volume, and increased ground volume.DJ Moore, who has been given 3.8% of his offense's carries near the end zone this year (97th percentile), is in the unique position (for a wideout) of being involved in the Bears red zone ground game.
