Blue and Orange beats Big Blue

Brad Biggs (10-1)

The Bears should dominate this game with their defensive front against an offensive line that has really struggled at times this season. Rich Campbell (8-3)

The Giants should be able to move the ball if Akiem Hicks (Achilles) sits out. But their lack of a pass rush and struggles protecting Eli Manning will tilt this away from them. The Bears must start fast after 10 days between games. David Haugh (10-1)

The Bears defense will make Manning anxious for retirement by dominating so much that wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will start complainin­g by halftime. Chase. Mitch. Doesn’t matter who plays quarterbac­k for the Bears when the opponent is this bad. The winning streak continues. Colleen Kane (8-3)

The Giants’ big-play capability behind rookie Saquon Barkley presents more concerns than would be expected of a 3-8 team. But the Giants defense is nothing spectacula­r, and the Bears should pull off their sixth straight victory, even if Mitch Trubisky is sidelined again. Phil Thompson (10-1) Seems like the Bears should be wary of Barkley and Beckham, but I just foresee more memes of Giants O-linemen picking a shell-shocked Manning off the ground. Dan Wiederer (8-3)

Trubisky’s injury leaves me unsettled. But the Giants defense is just too mediocre. Hicks’ injury leaves me unsettled. But the Bears defense is still so dominant.
