Chicago comes off a bye week and has been reliable UNDER bets lately in that situation (5-2 past 7). They have also been UNDER machines on the road in November in recent years, grinding to a 9-2 record past 11 times.
Overall, Chicago has trended UNDER on the road at 8-2 past 10 away from Soldier Field. And as an underdog, the UNDER has hit at a 15-5 clip the past 20 times the Bears were dogged.
“Noteworthy is the fact LeSean McCoy has been battling the flu this weekend, although he says he’s good to go,” added Pickett. “The last two times versus Chicago, Mike Vick has struggled and gotten knocked down a lot, so establishing the run is key here.”
Each team is looking for a third straight win to climb back into playoff contention. The Eagles seem a better bet to get it, but they have to cover 8 points in order to win for bettors as well.
