If there’s a team the Bears can beat to snap their longest losing streak since 2002, it’s the Houston Texans. The Texans may have an elite QB in Deshaun Watson, but frankly, that’s all that they have this week.
By using PointsBet, Chicago sports fans will get the best lines and odds boosts for this afternoon’s game. So sit back, relax, probably mute your TV so you don’t have to hear Trubisky vs. Watson storylines, and get ready to win some money.
Bears vs. Texans Best Bets
David Montgomery Over/Under Rushing Yards (66.5)
The Texans have the worst running defense in the league. Combine that with the last two performances from Montgomery, who displayed perhaps his best run as a Bear in Week 12, and take the over.
Another thing to mention is the emergence of Sam Mustipher. Mustipher is a natural center who has made the Bears offensive line one million times better. Since he took over at that spot and Cody Whitehair was moved to guard, the run game has been significantly better.
Today, Montgomery should have a field day.
Deshaun Watson Over/Under Rushing Yards (30.5)
If you haven’t seen the news yet, Watson will be without his top four offensive weapons today. Will Fuller has been suspended for performance-enhancing drugs, Brandin Cooks is out, Randall Cobb is on injured reserve, and David Johnson is out with injury.
This is going to be the Deshaun Watson show Sunday. If the Texans’ offense is going to muster up any points, it will be from Watson’s legs. Not to mention the Bears have been struggling to stop the run the last two weeks.
I will take the over here.
Bears To Cover Point Spread (+1)
I know how bad the Bears have been, and to bet on them to win a football game these days doesn’t seem logical. However, the Texans are throwing a division two college team out there today because of their injuries. Strictly from a health standpoint, the Bears should win this game and cover.
If it wasn’t for poor play calling and a Trubisky blunder last week, they would be 6-6. Losing seven games in-a-row in the NFL is very rare. I will take the Bears to win and cover the spread.
PointsBet Offering $1500 In Risk-Free Bets
There are only a few weeks left in the NFL season, so why not make the most of it and get two, risk-free bets by signing up for PointsBet. If you use our promo code MOCKERY, all new users instantly receive both risk-free wagers.
The first is a basic, fixed odds wager valued up to $500. For example, I would use this on David Montgomery going over his rushing yards today (66.5). $500 would net me $935 if that bet hit. You can either win $935 or lose nothing at all.
The other bet is a PointsBet feature that is worth up to $1000. Pointsbetting is what makes this platform unique. If you bet on Deshaun Watson to pass for over 263.5 yards today and he throws for 300, you are compensated for each additional yard. Basically, you can win more money by betting the same odds.
