3. Week Eleven the Chicago Bears head to Atlanta

The final game of the season the Atlanta Falcons should be the favorite in is week eleven against the Chicago Bears. Justin Fields had a rough rookie season throwing more interceptions than touchdowns and often trying to create a play that simply wasn’t there. Fields looked lost as the starter and put little on tape to indicate that will change this season.  Fields has immense talent but has few weapons and is coming off of a rough rookie debut. If his struggles continue Atlanta should win this game.

Chicago is rebuilding and lacks playmakers around Fields to win games this season. With a middling offensive line and few playmakers to help him the Bears are setting themselves up for a long season. One that is going to include a loss against a bad Atlanta Falcons team.

Cordarrelle Patterson and Kyle Pitts will be the difference in this game for the Falcons. Chicago doesn’t have the defensive personnel to stop either. If Atlanta can put A.J. Terrell on Darnell Mooney the Chicago offense is going to be severely limited and Fields is going to be forced into making mistakes. With a rough slate ahead for the next seven weeks, this should be the last time Atlanta heads into a game as the favorite.
