Preview
Monday Night Football is in Seattle at 8:15 p.m. ET. Chicago comes in 5-2 and Seattle 4-3, per ESPN. The Bears have won four of their last five, most recently 30-24 over New England, and their only loss in that stretch was a 31-7 game at Green Bay. Seattle is coming off its best game of the year, a 20-3 win over Kansas City on Oct. 26.
Key factors
Seattle's injury list is the story. ESPN lists left tackle Charles Cross (ankle), receiver Rashid Shaheed (knee) and running back Velus Jones Jr. (hamstring) out, linebacker Uchenna Nwosu doubtful and backup quarterback Drew Lock questionable. Chicago lists running back Kyle Monangai out, with tight end Cole Kmet and safety Coby Bryant on IR. Sam Darnold has 1,290 passing yards with 8 touchdowns and 8 interceptions, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba has 867 receiving yards and 8 scores. Caleb Williams has 1,020 yards, 5 touchdowns and just 1 interception, and D'Andre Swift has 7 rushing touchdowns, per ESPN. The forecast is about 48 degrees with almost no wind, per Open-Meteo. DraftKings via ESPN had Seattle -3 with a 46.5 total at last check, and ESPN's matchup predictor gives Seattle 56.6%.
The pick
Our morning card took Chicago +3, and the number hasn't moved. A Bears team that protects the ball against a Seahawks offense missing its left tackle and a starting receiver makes three points worth taking. The risk is Darnold and Smith-Njigba, who can hit big plays on anyone, and the fact that Seattle just held Kansas City to 3 points. A lean, not a lock. Check inactives about 90 minutes before kickoff.

How to read a pick
The bold line is the bet in plain words. The ticket line under it is the number from the source, when the source had one.
- Spread
- The points a team gets or gives. "Eagles win by 4+" is the same idea as PHI -3.5: that team has to win by 4 or more. A plus number means the team can lose by fewer than that, or win.
- Moneyline
- Who wins the game. No point spread. The price, like BOS -155, only says how short or long that win was on the snapshot.
- Over/under
- The total. Add both sides together. Over 2.5 goals means 3 or more. Under 2.5 means 2 or fewer.
- Parlay
- Two or more bets tied together. Every part has to hit, or the whole ticket loses. This board does not build a parlay for you.
- Lean, Like, Love
- Lean is a small edge. Like is a clearer read. Love is the strongest call on the board. No pick means we are not calling a side.
