The Chicago Bears got their first win of the season last week and will look for a second straight when they host the Washington Redskins on Monday Night Football.

The Bears offense has looked weak in both games, a 10-3 loss to the Packers followed by last week’s 16-14 win over Denver.

They have not surpassed 273 yards of offense in either game. The defense on the other hand seems to have picked off from last season as they’ve allowed just 24 points total which was third best in the NFL after two games.

They only have one turnover through two games.

Washington played NFC East foes in their first two games of the season and gave both Philadelphia and Dallas a pretty good run for their money before their limited offense ran out of gas against two of the better teams in the league.



Their best defensive lineman, Jonathan Allen didn’t play against Dallas and may not play here either.

Washington managed to score 48 points against their foes, and at least 21 points in both, but they allowed 32 and 31 respectively.

If QB Mitchell Trubisky and the Bears offense is going to break out anytime soon, this would be a good place to take advantage.

The Bottom Line: Chicago is -5½ favorites and the over/under is 41 points. That Bears defense is one of the best in the league and should be able to contain Washington’s offense. But I’m not sold on Chicago’s offense either, even against this Washington defense. As a result, I like the under and a cover. The Pick: Bears 21-7.
