2. Defensive Struggle
The total for this game is set at 45.5. That seems about right, but the game has a chance to go under. The Rams are coming off of a game where they scored just 16 points against the 49ers. Ironically, the Bears allowed just 16 points to the Panthers in Week 6.
Los Angeles has some of the best skill players in the league, but their offense has been stagnant at times. They are capable of being contained. That is mainly because they do not have a threat of a rushing attack.
Darrell Henderson, Cam Akers, and Malcolm Brown have all seen significant playing time, but no one has stood out enough to take over carries.
The Bears like to play defensive games, so this could fit right into their game plan. The Rams should not be overlooked on the defensive side of the ball, especially with Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey looming.
