Top 2023 NFL futures bets
White and Hartstein are both targeting under 7.5 wins for the Chicago Bears for a +105 payout. The Bears have failed to eclipse 7.5 wins in six of the last nine seasons. Last season, Chicago opened with two wins in their first three games, but struggled mightily down the stretch. In fact, the Bears went on to lose 13 of their next 14 games, including their last 10 matchups.
Quarterback Justin Fields certainly made progress in his second season, but he’s struggled with turnovers since entering the NFL. He’s thrown 21 interceptions over his last two seasons, while completing just 59.7% of his passes. In addition, the Bears averaged just 130.5 passing yards per game last season, which ranked dead-last in the NFL. While the Bears are positioned to show improvement after acquiring wide receiver DJ Moore this offseason, there are still clear holes on the roster. Head to SportsLine now to see the rest of White, Hartstein, McClure and Selesnick’s picks broken down by team.
