Surprising Sharp Bet Emerges For Chicago Bears 2022-23 Season

Perhaps the 2022 Chicago Bears aren’t completely doomed after all.

When Vegas sports books opened their line at 6.5 wins for the Bears next season, many in the public rushed to take the under. But a new report reveals that the real sharps are hammering the over on the bet, with more than 98% of the money coming in on the over.

The Chicago Bears appear to be in a bit of a transition year in 2022.

They lost veterans Khalil Mack, Akiem Hicks and Allen Robinson in the offseason. But have added a few offensive weapons to center around sophomore quarterback Justin Fields.

Chicago also replaced head coach Matt Nagy with defensive-minded Matt Eberflus for the upcoming season.

Given the state of Chicago sports, they’ll take just about anything they can get right now. And perhaps betting sharps have provided them with a little bit of hope for their beloved Bears.
