Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers

Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers in NFL Week 1 betting action matchup and the top NFL US sportsbooks have the Chicago Bears sitting at +7 point road underdogs. Our NFL online betting pick for this game is to take the Bears with the 7 points.

The Chicago Bears are a hard nosed football team that is looking to redefine itself as an offensive powerhouse in the NFL. Jay Cutler, the controversial starting quarterback of the Bears, is healthy and ready to start the 2016 season. Matt Forte will also be a force in the Bear’s backfield as he looks to maximize his potential at running back this year.

The Bears are coached by John Fox and play all of their games at Soldier Field. The Bears are long shots to win the Super Bowl this year, but with the field so wide open this year, it’s really hard to pick a clear cut favorite. The unpredictability factor in the NFL only plays in the Bears favor. Although the Bears are listed as 60/1 underdogs to win Super Bowl 50, they could stand to become a force in the NFC North.

The Bears will have a tough road ahead of them as they play the Packers, Lions and Vikings twice in one season. The Bears have proven to be a team that can overcome adversity and develop the talent that they have drafted. Perhaps some playmakers will step up on both sides of the ball and give Chicago the boost they need in order pull off a Super Bowl shocker.
