The Chicago Bears will face the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, where Chicago is looking to get back in the win column after an embarrassing loss in Week 5.
The Bears are coming off a 31-7 blowout loss to the Green Bay Packers, where Chicago was out-coached and outplayed in all phases. Tyson Bagent had one of the worst quarterback performances in recent Bears history, throwing two interceptions before being benched in the fourth quarter for Case Keenum. Meanwhile, the defense was shredded by Jordan Love and Green Bay's offense, allowing six explosive plays of 30-plus yards, and they had no answers.
Now, the Bears will face the Falcons with a chance to bounce back after a demoralizing loss and ahead of three straight prime-time games. Chicago is road
favorites against Atlanta. But what do the experts think? Here's a look:
