Pittsburgh Steelers vs Chicago Bears Prediction, Odds and Picks for Sunday, 11/23/25

The Chicago Bears have won 7 of their last 8 games heading into a home date with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday afternoon. I’m hopping on the bandwagon, so my Bears vs Steelers pick is on the home side to win and cover. It is fair to say that the Bears have found their stride under first-year head coach Ben Johnson and second-year quarterback Caleb Williams. With Williams playing mistake-free football, D’Andre Swift balancing the offense by running the ball effectively and Johnson’s play-calling working its magic just as it did when he was offensive coordinator in Detroit, Chicago’s offense is humming. It is #4 overall (373.8 yards per game) and #8 in scoring (25.8 points per game). Williams has thrown only 4 interceptions to go along with his 16 total touchdowns (13 passing, 3 rushing).

Pittsburgh’s QB situation is far worse. On Sunday the visitors will either be playing with a banged-up Aaron Rodgers or a backup in Mason Rudolph. Rodgers is questionable after sustaining minor fracture in his left wrist during last week’s victory over Cincinnati. It was announced on Tuesday that that injury will not require surgery. Whatever the case, neither Rodgers nor Rudolph inspires much confidence. On the other side of the ball, the Steelers’ defense is overrated. Everyone just assumes it is good since TJ Watt is on the field, but that is hardly the reality. Head coach Mike Tomlin’s team is #28 league wide in total defense and dead last against the pass. Its 33 sacks are good for third most in the NFL, but keep in mind that Williams is a mobile quarterback who can avoid pressure for the most part. At home against an unspectacular opponent, I feel great about Chicago maintaining momentum.
