New England Patriots at Chicago Bears — New England Patriots +3 for the full game, including overtime.
New England’s protection has to withstand another test in Chicago for the Patriots +3 (-120) case to hold. Against the Jets, New England allowed no sacks while Drake Maye threw three touchdown passes despite losing three offensive linemen during the game.
That one-game response does not forecast a repeat, but it supports a conditional case for New England to keep this matchup near the key three-point boundary. For this ticket, the protection premise has to travel.
Chicago has a real way to stretch the margin instead. Caleb Williams returned from a hamstring absence with 305 passing yards and no turnovers against Atlanta. Chicago’s restored passing production can create the four-point-or-more margin that defeats this case, and Gordon’s three-sack return directly tests New England’s protection.
Take New England Patriots +3 if you trust the protection-resilience premise to hold against Chicago. Pass on New England Patriots +3 if Chicago’s passing revival and pressure threat are the stronger guide.
