Three Bold Predictions: Bears vs. Commanders

-

The Bears enter week 8 with a 4-2 record following a much needed bye week. This week, they’ll be in the primetime window as they take on the 5-2 Washington Commanders. Here are my three bold predictions for this matchup.

Rome Odunze catches 2 touchdown passes

Rome Odunze has flown under the radar in the 2024 wide receiver draft class, mainly because of the talented vets performances ahead of him. DJ Moore, Keenan Allen, and Cole Kmet are all having productive seasons, and Caleb Williams is distributing the ball effectively across his surplus of weapons. But for some reason this just feels like a breakout game from Rome.

Bears defense give up 22+ points

If Jayden Daniels plays, I believe this Matt Eberflus-led defense will allow 22 or more points for the first time in 12 games, which was the longest active streak in the NFL. I hope I’m wrong, but missing Jaquan Brisker and Kyler Gordon may make it too difficult to slow down a Daniels-led offense.

Jayden Daniels gets the start

I might be in the minority here, but I believe rookie QB Jayden Daniels will actually play on Sunday. He’s clearly expressed that he wants to, and since it’s a rib injury, I think it will come down to his pain tolerance more than anything else. While I’d love for the Bears to catch a break and face Marcus Mariota instead, I just don’t think that’s how it will turn out.

Hey Dave, is Kay your woman? A simple yes or no will suffice.

If the Bears play well in all three phases of the game, it should be an easy win. I would like to see this offense roll and score over 30 and allow the defense to pin their ears back and go after the QB, I think Tory is going to be a critical piece today.

Don’t get me wrong, I think Odunze is going to be a stud, but he is still just a rookie, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he hits the wall. Keenan is the guy that should step up. He came in fat, and hopefully he should be rounding into football shape. Washington has a decent secondary, and he might be able to work them over.
Kmet needs to be physical and punish the middle.

Dave, you are getting radical and living dangerously. Would you bet money on these bold predictions?

I’ve made $84,000 so far this month working online and I’m a full time student. I’m using an online business opportunity I heard about and I’ve made such great money. It’s really user friendly and I’m just so happy that I found out about it. The potential with this is endless.
