Chicago Bears (4-3) at Buffalo Bills (2-5)
Sunday, November 4, 1PM ET
After a fast start, the Chicago Bears have cooled in recent weeks, losing their last two games and quietly falling behind in the NFC North race. Luckily for them, a matchup with the Buffalo Bills should get them back on track.

It’s not like Mitchell Trubisky and the Bears haven’t had some strong performances this season. The sophomore quarterback is enjoying a coming-out party of sorts, showing far more effectiveness and leadership than he did a year ago. The Chicago defense has also played well, with Khalil Mack proving to be an all-too-valuable offseason addition.
Said Bears defense should cause headaches for whoever is under center for Buffalo. Even if Josh Allen made a miraculous return, the Bills would still be in trouble when it comes to creating points. The offense as a whole has been a mess this season, evidenced by their pitiful 31st-ranked output in the yardage department.
Even if the Chicago offense sputters on Sunday, the defense will do more than enough to secure the win. Don’t be surprised if this is a low-scoring affair that sees the Bears walk away with a less-than-impressive victory.
Prediction: Bears win 17-6
