The Bears managed the 24-17 home win over a "work in progress" Tennessee team in Week 1, but now here on the road in Week 2, we're expecting Chicago to stumble. Houston enters off a big 29-27 division road win over Indianapolis. It was a tough opening game and the Texans found a way to win. They will be sky high for their home opener and we just can't see the Bears' offense keeping pace with CJ Stroud and company. Chicago QB Caleb Williams was just 14 of 29 for 93 yards (a league low) in the Bears' victory in Week 1, while Stroud was 24 of 32 for 234 yards and two TD's. The Bears were fortunate to get some defensive and special teams points but they can't rely on that. Chicago hasn't traveled well these past few years and now they've got a rookie QB making his first road start. Chicago has also failed to cover the spread in seven of its last eight road games following a SU victory. Look for Stroud and the Texans to get the job done with a statement home victory in front of the national audience.
