Las Vegas Raiders vs. Chicago Bears Analysis
The Las Vegas Raiders needed every minute of the win over the Green Bay Packers and then did the same on Sunday over the Patriots. In six games, the Raiders are actually allowing 21.8 points per game and scoring just 16.7 per game for their NFL Team Stats. But their 3-3 record has them right in the mix for a postseason spot in the AFC.
The Raiders lost Jimmy Garroppolo in this game, and with his trip to the hospital, it’s not likely he will play against the Bears. Brian Hoyer came in and was six for 10 with 102 yards in the game. Hoyer’s game plan will be simplified.
Get the ball to Josh Jacobs, Devante Adams, and even Jakobi Meyers. Adams and Meyers have a combined 69 receptions so far this season, with seven touchdown catches.
The Las Vegas Raiders schedule shows they are playing back-to-back games on the road. Las Vegas will play this game and then go to Detroit next week for the Monday Night Football affair against the Lions.
Running Back Dilemma
The Chicago Bears are possibly going to be without their quarterback as well. Justin Fields left the game in the second half with a hand injury and did not return. The former Ohio State signal-caller has 11 touchdown passes and six interceptions on the season for his NFL Player Stats. D.J. Moore has been his favorite target, with five touchdown receptions.
Tyson Bagent came in and almost completed a comeback win. Bagent rushed for a touchdown, then in an effort to put the Bears ahead, threw an interception. He finished with ten completions for 83 yards in the game. Chicago will also be without top running back Khalil Herbert in this game.
This Chicago Bears roster is struggling to keep up with the injuries mounting up. The NFL Injury Report has been busy with Chicago guys.
The Bears will go on the road for their next two games. After this game, Chicago is on Sunday Night Football at the Los Angeles Chargers. After that, the Bears are in New Orleans to take on the Saints.

Las Vegas Raiders vs. Chicago Bears Betting Pick and Prediction
A game with two starting quarterbacks not playing has all the makings of an ugly one. Neither defense is very good, but how are these teams going to get the ball up and down the field.
In the end, the Raiders still have better playmakers. Josh Jacobs and Devante Adams are better than anything the Bears have on offense. Going on the road and winning is a tough task, but the Raiders get the job done here.
Betting the Las Vegas Raiders -3 over the Chicago Bears seems to be the right choice for this Week 7 prediction.
That’s all for our Raiders vs Bears best bets!
