You have two great young quarterbacks, Caleb Williams and Drake May, squaring off.

For all my jokes about Drake May and the Patriots, you know, I think, hey, Drake May is an awesome player.

Like this is kind of one of those weird ones where everybody's going to take the Patriots and I'm going to zag here a little bit and take the bears.

Um, what I like about, you know, the bears, obviously, you know, their defenses are, Fine, whatever.

The run game is so dominant when they get going that they eat up a ton of clock and it really forces the other offense to be perfect or to match them on their scoring drives.

And I think maybe we could see the Patriots struggle with that just a little bit.

So I will take the Bears minus three here in what should be a high scoring game.
I had to go to Brinson first because me and him just go at it when it comes to the Patriots.
But like you said, a lot of people are on the pats because, A, it's a good play, and also you're getting a great number with three.

The look ahead was two and a half, though, and I don't see why we're moving it off that number of the two and a half.

The New England offensive line injuries could be an issue, right? They lost both guards, but Caleb Loomis looked good.
