Bears vs Seahawks Predictions & Picks
Chris Farley’s Bears vs Seahawks Spread Pick: Seahawks -3 (-118)
The Seahawks just earned a huge dominant win over the Chiefs and should have little issue following up against the Bears. Seattle boasts the best defense in the NFL while the offense should flourish after trading for Quenton Nelson. With home-field advantage too, all signs point to a smooth Seahawks win.
Chris Farley’s Bears vs Seahawks Total Prediction: Over 46.5 (-110)
While Seattle's defense is vicious, both of these teams boast all-star offenses and that could lead to a shootout at Lumen Field. Chicago tore it up against the Patriots last week and their offense has a rest advantage that could put them in a prime position, while the Seahawks' offense should continue to deliver behind Sam Darnold.

Bears vs Seahawks Player Prop Bets
Best Bears vs Seahawks Player Prop Bet: Zach Charbonnet (SEA) Over 7.5 Receiving Yards (-114)
Mike Macdonald said of Zach Charbonnet this week, "He's a three-down back. He can catch the ball out of the backfield, he can run a pretty significant route tree out of the backfield, he can run all the different types of runs and all the different types of situations and his pass protection has been excellent since he's been here." Having Charbonnet in on passing downs is big for the Seahawks, and this number is very attainable, even if his snaps are being monitored.

Bears vs Seahawks TD scorer Best Bet: Jacob Cowing (SF) Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+440)
What more is there to say about Jaxon Smith-Njigba? Last year's Offensive Player of the Year is having another historic season, as he's accounted for over 50% of the Seahawks' receiving yards - a percentage that would be a record. He's on pace for over 2,000 receiving yards and close to 20 touchdowns. Yet the books are still offering JSN at nearly even money to find the end zone on MNF. I don't expect 10+ days of prep for Chicago to limit JSN from scoring a touchdown at home.

Chicago Bears vs Seattle Seahawks Same Game Parlay
Seahawks -5.5 alternate spread over Bears (+120)
The Seahawk' performance last Sunday night proves that they are capable of repeating. In a potential Super Bowl preview against a rejuvenated Kansas City squad, Seattle harassed Patrick Mahomes all game long en route to a 20-3 blowout. Mahomes was knocked down eight times, threw a pick and averaged an anemic 5.0 yards per pass attempt. On the other side of the ball, Sam Darnold averaged 9.2 yards per attempt and had his connection with Jaxon Smith-Njigba working to typical perfection. A -3 spread in Seattle effectively means that oddsmakers are pricing these teams as completely even on a neutral field. That is putting too much respect on a relatively unproven Bears outfit against the defending Super Bowl champions.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba (SEA) to Record 120+ Receiving Yards (+166)
Smith-Njigba has exceeded the century mark in six of seven games so far this season. He has racked up at least 120 yards on five occasions, including 150 or more on two occasions. In other words, getting to this 120 quota is nothing out of the ordinary for JSN and therefore has outstanding value at +166 odds. Facing Chicago is one of the best matchups any receiver could have. The Bears are dead last in the entire NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (8.7).
Jaxon Smith-Njigba (SEA) to Score a Touchdown (-115)
The former Ohio State standout also shouldn’t have any trouble finding the end zone on Monday Night Football. He has scored eight touchdowns in seven games this year, including three against Arizona and two against Washington. Smith-Njigba is simply a scoring machine, and he is now facing a Chicago defense that has surrendered 11 touchdowns through the air this season.
