Week 8 picks: Who the experts are taking in Bears vs. Ravens

The Chicago Bears will battle the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, where Chicago is looking to extend its winning streak to five games.

The Bears are coming off a 26-14 win over the New Orleans Saints, where they had another complete team win despite some self-inflicted mistakes continuing. The run game had its best outing of the season, totaling 222 yards, the defense forced four more turnovers (bringing them to a league-best 16 this season) and Jake Moody was perfect in his relief of an injured Cairo Santos.

Meanwhile, the Ravens are coming off a much-needed bye week after a 1-5 start. Baltimore has battled a rash of injuries to key starters, including most notably quarterback Lamar Jackson, who suffered a hamstring injury vs. the Kansas City Chiefs on Sept. 28. We’ll see if the two-time NFL MVP will be able to suit up on Sunday. If not, that would be a huge break for Chicago.

The Bears are 7-point road underdog against the Ravens, according to BetMGM. But what do the experts think? Here’s a look:
