Patriots-Bears Kickoff NFL Week 7; NBA Season Gets Underway
Welcome to the new and improved Betting with Bearman. I hope you enjoyed the new look and the new platform for the relaunch, which includes a website, so make sure to bookmark www.bearmanbets.com.
We finished off a profitable week with a primetime winner in George Kittle over 66.5 yards. We are now 13-2 in primetime picks in the newsletter this season.
Week 6 begins on Thursday night with a battle of 4-2 teams at Soldier Field between the Patriots and Bears, which we have covered below. We also update our Futures portfolio and check out the rest of the sports landscape, which includes an NBA game on its second Opening Night, and a pick for the King of the Night.

New England Patriots at Chicago Bears (-3, 50.5)
- The Bears are just a different offense with a healthy Caleb Williams. The Bears have played six games this season, three with Williams and three without.
- In the three games with Williams, the Bears are averaging 31.0 points and 405.7 yards per game, compared to 19 PPG and 371.0 yards without. And that includes one game against Minnesota, where the Vikings shut down everything, holding Chicago to 3 points and 297 yards.
- Against the Falcons in Week 5, Williams completed 30 of 36 passes overall, including a perfect 24-for-24 for 248 yards in a clean pocket.
- Williams also has the league's best backfield behind him as the Bears average 160.7 rush yards per game.
- I still have my questions about the Patriots' ability to beat anyone good not named Buffalo. They did outlast the Bills in a shootout, as they did last year, but the other wins this year are vs. the Jets, Raiders, and a sloppy win vs. the Steelers.
