The Los Angeles Rams (1-2) and Chicago Bears (1-2) are both aiming to get back to .500. They will have an opportunity on Sunday, September 29, at 1:00 PM ET when they meet at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois. Our Los Angeles Rams vs. Chicago Bears betting preview shows the Bears slightly favored with a point spread at -3.0 (-110).
The Rams landed their first win of the season in a big way, defeating the San Francisco 49ers 27-24. They were down 14-7 at the half and eventually clawed back with points, but they finished with a strong 13-point fourth quarter.
Matthew Stafford completed 16 of his 25 passes for 221 yards and a touchdown. Kyren Williams rushed 24 times and landed 89 yards and two touchdowns. Together, these two have many problems with the 49ers' defense.
Their stats, at least on paper, were not as appealing as the 49ers total yards and first downs. The Rams could force one turnover and simply made more of their scoring opportunities.
The Rams are accumulating 19.0 points a game and rank 20th for that output. On defense, they allow their opponents to average 30.3 points per game, ranking second to last in the league.
The Bears have lost two consecutive road games by six points or less. Their latest defeat was a 21-16 outing against the Indianapolis Colts.
Caleb Williams completed 33 of his 52 passes for 363 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. Rome Odunze had eight receptions for 112 yards and a touchdown, a reliable effort for Williams to throw to.
They should have won this game, as the Bears turned the ball thrice. They had more yards, first downs, and more possession of the ball but could not get it done. One of their turnovers led to the Colts scoring their first touchdown of the game.
The Bears' offense has provided 17.7 points a game, which ranks 22nd. Their defense has been solid in allowing opponents to score 19.0 points per game. If they can limit the turnovers, their offense will take another step forward.
