NFL
Chicago enters at 2-1 with 89 points scored and 53 allowed, powered by 223.7 passing yards per game and 184.3 rushing yards per game on offense. The Bears have also been efficient on the ground while forcing six takeaways through three games. New York is 1-2 with 64 points scored and 61 allowed, leaning more on the pass at 236.7 passing yards per game but generating only 21.3 points per game. The Jets have allowed 20.3 points per game and have been steadier in yards allowed than Chicago, but their offense has not matched the Bears' production.
Chicago is the better side overall and should be trusted to win at home in a game that projects to stay competitive. The Bears' superior scoring output, stronger turnover profile, and better overall point differential give them the edge, while New York's defense should keep the game from becoming a runaway. The projected final score is Chicago Bears 27, New York Jets 23.
