Spread Keeps Falling, Bet Handle Zooming Towards Detroit Lions At Chicago Bears

Please rephrase the following sentence:<br><br>”I cannot attend the meeting tomorrow due to a scheduling conflict.”

The point spread for the Lions is decreasing as more and more bets are being placed on Detroit for their upcoming weekend game against the Chicago Bears.

Bettors are increasingly favoring the winless Lions as the Chicago quarterback situation twists in the Windy City, and vultures circle around the Matt Nagy era.

Sportsbooks like PointsBet MI, BetRivers, and WynnBET initially projected the Lions as slight underdogs by just 2.5 points on Thursday. However, on Friday, all sportsbooks adjusted their lines, bringing the game back to the crucial number of 3 for Sunday’s match in Chicago. By the time the game commenced, the lines had stabilized at 3, as news circulated that rookie Justin Fields would be making his second career start.

Liones-Bears spread settles at 3 points across the board

On Sunday, WynnBet shared betting data revealing that a significant 83.5% of spread bets were in favor of the Lions for the game. Initially set at 3.5 points, the opening line had dropped to 2.5 points by Thursday afternoon.

During the summer, the point spread for Chicago was 5.5 points. On late Sunday afternoon, when the game-week line was initially announced, bets as high as 6 points could be placed.

By Monday morning, the spread had decreased to 3.5 points in most places due to the repercussions of Week 3.

Following a competitive and controversial 19-17 loss to Baltimore, which marked Detroit’s second cover in three losses, the Lions sparked a movement. In the meantime, the Bears faced significant difficulties during their 26-6 defeat against Cleveland on Sunday.

On Sunday morning, DraftKings Sportsbook reported that the Lions had received 81% of the spread handle, with a +3 spread in their favor. By Thursday, the Lions were also leading with 87% of the spread bets placed on them.

By Saturday morning, the spread at BetMGM Sportsbook went from Lions +6 to +3. The operator stated that 75% of the spread handle on Sunday was placed on Detroit.

As of Sunday, only PointsBet has shared data on Chicago action, revealing that 66% of their spread handle is on the Bears. Among the available online operators in Illinois, PointsBet, DraftKings, and BetRivers are live, while WynnBET and BetMGM are currently inactive.

Lions will be without top pass rusher again

Trey Flowers, the Lions’ defensive end, was absent from Sunday’s game against Baltimore due to issues with his shoulder and knee. Moreover, he continued to miss practice on Wednesday and Thursday, resulting in his official ruling out for the game on Friday.

Defensive end Michael Brockers, outside linebacker Romeo Okwara, and running back D’Andre Swift, among other Lions, have faced practice restrictions this week. There are uncertainties surrounding their availability for the game as all three players are now listed as questionable.

Who is playing quarterback for the Bears on Sunday? We have an answer

The Bears had yet to announce a definite starting quarterback, but ESPN’s Adam Schefter confirmed on Saturday night that Fields would be the one leading the team.

Andy Dalton, the initial starting player, is unable to continue the game due to an injury.

Despite a thumb injury, Dalton was restricted in his activities all week, while Fields managed to participate in full practice sessions. Unfortunately, Fields proved ineffective during last night’s game as the Bears endured a disappointing 26-6 defeat against Cleveland.
