In good Thursday Night Football form, the NFL has given us the gift of a primetime Commanders vs. Bears matchup to kick off Week 6.
It will (likely) be the second week in a row of low-scoring football following a snoozefest Broncos–Colts game that unfortunately went to overtime and ended 12-9.
Commanders -1 | Bears +1
This week’s matchup features two subpar offenses and has the lowest point total of the week of 38. The 2-3 Bears rank fifth-worst in points per game, fifth-worst in sacks allowed and have tallied the second-fewest offensive yards behind the hapless Panthers. The 1-4 Commanders have had their own struggles this season behind new quarterback Carson Wentz and sit in last place in the NFC East. Washington has allowed the third-most sacks through five games and is averaging just 0.8 points more per game than Chicago.
