Carolina Panthers vs. Chicago Bears Betting Preview
The Carolina Panthers faced significant struggles on Sunday, with Bryce Young throwing three interceptions and getting sacked four times. The Panthers’ running game also faltered, with Chuba Hubbard starting but managing just 58 rushing yards.
Carolina ranks among the league’s weakest offensive teams, averaging 18.1 points per game, while their defense is at the bottom of the league, allowing over 30 points per game.
After the Chicago game, the Panthers will host the Dallas Cowboys and then play on the road against the Tennessee Titans before the end of the month.
Bears’ Rollercoaster Ride
In their recent loss to the Saints, the Bears saw a mixed performance from their rookie quarterback, Tyson Bagent, who was making his third career start. Bagent displayed moments of excellence, including two touchdown passes to Cole Kmet, but his three interceptions and a lost fumble proved costly for the Bears. Bagent may start this game, but there’s uncertainty regarding Justin Fields’ potential return as he is listed as questionable on the NFL injury report.
D’Onta Foreman led the Bears’ rushing attack once again, with 20 carries for 83 yards. Bagent also contributed with 70 rushing yards. The Bears are averaging just 21.4 points per game as a team, placing them in the lower tier of NFL offenses. On the defensive side, their NFL Team Stats show they allow opponents to score an average of 27.3 points, ranking them better than only four other teams.
Following this game against the Panthers at home, the Bears will face the Detroit Lions in Week 11 and play the Monday Night Football game against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 12.
