Bears @ 49ers
2025-12-29T01:20Z | Levi's Stadium | NBC, Peacock
Why is everyone acting like this is a coin flip when one team's been grinding road wins all year and the other just lost their identity?
That 73% road record for Chicago isn't some fluke - this Bears team actually travels better than they play at home. They've got that nasty defense that doesn't care about crowd noise and an offense that's learned to steal games in hostile environments.
Meanwhile, San Francisco's getting three and a half points for what exactly? Their home field advantage dried up weeks ago. Levi's Stadium has all the intimidation factor of a suburban mall, and this 49ers squad is limping toward the playoffs hoping nobody notices they're not the same team from October.
The market's giving you free money here because of name recognition and geographical bias. Chicago's been the better road team, they're hungrier, and they're getting spotted points against a home favorite that's been coasting on reputation.
**Take the points with Chicago +3.5.** This spread should be a pick'em at worst.
