Chicago Bears vs New Orleans Saints 
Betting Odds, Picks, and Predictions for Week 7
Ahhh, all is right in the world as I return to the keyboard to cover OUR Chicago Bears. Mind you, last week's detour to Tampa didn't keep us from our winning ways, as the Bucs and Niners came through with the over and another winner. However, this just feels right, and what better way to jump back into the fray than a matchup against the worst roster in the NFL.
Will the Bears continue to provide false hope? Or, are the Bears gonna Bears, and do whatever they can to keep this one close? Let's dive in.

Bears vs Saints Betting Picks
Every angle of this game is pointing me to take the Saints, but I know OUR Chicago Bears. After a hard-fought victory in the nation's capital Monday night, which saw RB D'Andre Swift run for 108 yards, while racking up 67 yards on two receptions with a touchdown, the Bears return home against an inferior opponent. The Saints are 18th in total yards allowed, and 16th in both passing and rushing yards allowed, while yielding 26.7 points per game, ranking 25th in the NFL.
Like any good bully, the Bears beat up on weaker competition, and I foresee another beatdown before the schedule gets tougher. My good friend declared "The Bears might be back" after Monday's win, and that's exactly what they want you to think. For one more week, they add fuel to the good vibes fire.
