From the booth

The Chicago Bears are favored in this one, and they should be, sitting at 72% to win on the road in Carolina. The model's got the Bears ahead across the board here, from the betting markets to that Vegas spread of minus 2.5, plus the Panthers have been bleeding points defensively over their last five games. Carolina's fighting an uphill battle at just 28%, and with Chicago's overall talent edge factored in, the Bears look like the pick to get the W in Charlotte.
