Bears vs. Packers NFL Week 11 Betting Lines

Chicago Bears NFL Week 11 Betting Lines

The last second loss to the Washington Commanders looks to have taken all the wind out of the Chicago Bears collective sail. Since that sickening NFL odds defeat, Matt Eberflus has stood on the sideline and watched as his squad put forth limited effort in falling to Arizona and New England by the aggregate score of 48-12. The offense has regressed terribly under Shane Waldron’s watch since dropping 35 points on the Jacksonville Jaguars across the pond. Even more bothersome has been the overall play of the defense with the unit simply unable to match its early-season contributions after being forced onto the field a majority of every game due to the offense’s inability to hold onto the ball or put points on the board. The timing of the downswing couldn’t have occurred at a worse time with the schedule strength set to beef up over the next month with the start of divisional play. Up first is a Week 11 betting showdown against the hated Green Bay Packers who’ve rubbed the Bears faces in it having won and covered each of the last 10 overall meetings. Making matters even worse, the Bears have amassed just one win and a pair of point spread covers the last 10 times it welcomed the Cheeseheads into Soldier Field. Provided Eberflus and Waldron retain their positions heading into the game, it’s hard to imagine either, or both, not facing dismissal if the Bears can't end their losing streak. The pressure on the coaching staff in Chicago is mounting, and the fans are furious!

Losers of three straight, Chicago’s odds of winning Super Bowl LIX have swelled to 250-1 from 90-1, while their odds of winning the NFC jumped out to 120-1 from 40-1. With the Lions and Vikings each securing wins last week and Green Bay on bye, the Bears odds of winning the division fattened to a season-high 250-1 from 35-1, while their in-season win total fell to a season-low 6.5 from 7.5 with more expensive vig now attached to the low side of the target. Chicago’s odds of punching a ticket to the playoffs moved from +450 to +2000 with the “No” now the decided -10000 favorite, moving up from -650. Sorry Bears’ fans, but another lost season is being transcribed with a middling draft pick likely to be the end result.

Chicago Bears Week 10 Recap

The Chicago Bears struggled terribly in a 19-3 outright NFL odds loss to the New England Patriots in Week 10 betting, dropping their third straight game and snapping their eight-game home win streak. Caleb Williams, the top draft pick, faced relentless pressure, getting sacked nine times and finishing 16 of 30 for a measly 120 yards. The Bears' offense managed to accrue a grand total of 142 yards and only converted one of their 14 third down tries. Despite early opportunities, the Bears failed to capitalize. Their first drive, starting near midfield after a 38-yard punt return by DeAndre Carter, resulted in a three-and-out. Later, after T.J. Edwards intercepted New England's rookie QB Drake Maye, Chicago stalled again, settling for a Cairo Santos field goal to tie the game at 3-3 in the second quarter. The Patriots’ defense dominated, with Anfernee Jennings and Deatrich Wise each recording two sacks. Maye, though not flashy, completed 15 of 25 passes for 184 yards and a touchdown against a Bears defense that simply ran out of gas due to being forced to remain on the gridiron a bulk of the second half. The Bears, now 4-5 SU and 5-4 against the NFL spread, face increased pressure as fans voiced frustrations with chants to fire coach Matt Eberflus, adding tension ahead of the toughest portion of the schedule upcoming.

2024 Chicago Bears Schedule, Results & Record

The Chicago Bears are one of the NFL’s founding franchises, established in 1920 by George Halas. The team boasts eight NFL championships and one Super Bowl victory. Halas himself coached the Bears through most of their seasons until 1967, securing those eight NFL titles. The legendary 1985 Bears Super Bowl championship team was led by head coach Mike Ditka, a former player under Halas. The team is currently owned by Virginia Halas McCaskey, George Halas' daughter, who is 99 years old.

Despite their rich history, the Bears have often frustrated their fans. Since 1991, the team has only made the playoffs seven times, with their sole Super Bowl appearance in that period occurring in the 2006-07 season when they lost to the Indianapolis Colts.

Known as the “Monsters of the Midway” for their tradition of physical football and strong defense, the Bears have struggled defensively in recent years. This has been a common issue for much of the past two decades.

The 1985 Bears team is considered one of the greatest in NFL history, finishing with a 15-1 record and a dominant Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots. That season, Chicago’s defense was historically powerful, overwhelming opponents like no other team had before.

Mike Ditka, the coach of that iconic team, remains the most popular figure in the franchise’s history. However, many believe the Bears underachieved in that era, failing to win more championships due to a lack of sustained drive and discipline after their 1985 success. Since then, the Bears have not been serious Super Bowl contenders. The hope is that the Caleb Williams era will bring a significant change to this narrative and restore the Bears to championship contention.
