NFL Week 9, 2019: 20 Bold predictions to consider

7. Mack sacks Wentz three times

After finishing on top of the NFC North last season, the last position the Chicago Bears expected to find themselves in entering Week 9 was coming off a third loss in a row.

Time will tell when it comes to determining whether Mitch Trubisky has what it takes to hang on to the starting job under center since the former first-round pick has been far from consistent this season.

But at least when it comes to the defensive side of the football, Chicago will always be a threat as long as Khalil Mack stays healthy.

Acquiring the star defender from the Oakland Raiders last season was the best decision the Bears could have made, and even though the team has been in a bit of a rough patch as of late, there’s still plenty of time to turn things around.

Up next, the Bears will head to the City of Brotherly Love to take on a Philadelphia Eagles coming off a huge win on the road over the Buffalo Bills, but also has been dealing with a few rough outings of their own throughout 2019.

Depending on how the offensive line looks, Mack could end up with a field day applying constant pressure to Carson Wentz.
