Chicago Bears Form
Chicago head to Seattle having won back-to-back games since Caleb Williams returned, improving their record to 5-2.
The Bears opened with a 59-37 victory in Carolina, but disaster struck a week later as they lost Williams to injury in a 9-3 defeat to Minnesota.
The Bears rallied behind Case Keenum to upset Philadelphia 27-7, and with Tyson Bagent under centre they then beat the New York Jets 23-12.
Chicago failed to make it three-in-a-row as they were blown out in Green Bay, 31-7, but Williams returned following that loss and they have not looked back since.
The Bears returned to winning ways with a 32-23 victory in Atlanta, and followed that up with a 30-24 success at home to New England.
Seattle Seahawks Form
Seattle go into this Monday night matchup having ended a two-game losing skid last time out, improving to 4-3.
The Seahawks kicked off their defence of the Vince Lombardi Trophy with a 13-10 win over New England in a rematch of last season’s Super Bowl, and backed that up with a 31-7 win in Arizona.
They failed to make it three-in-a-row as they lost 33-31 at Washington, only to rebound with a 30-23 success against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Seattle dropped the next game though, falling 32-29 at home to San Francisco, and they then suffered a 17-14 overtime defeat when they visited Denver.
The Seahawks got back on track in Week 7 though, as they shut down Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs in a 20-3 victory over Kansas City.
Verdict
Seattle are coming off their best defensive display of the season, but Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams have this Chicago offense rolling.
The Bears may not come away with a victory on Monday night, but an in-form offense and an opportunistic defense can deliver the cover.
