SUN NITE PREZIDENTIAL CLUB PUNISHER
(233) CHICAGO at (234) ATLANTA 8:20 PM
Atlanta may throw the ball downfield with success out of a 2-RB, 2-TE, and 1-WR set better than any other team in the league. Its passing attack was certainly on display last week in a 45-10 win beat-down of San Francisco.
Chicago enjoyed its off week last Sunday and comes into this Week 6 matchup with Atlanta on a 3-game winning streak. A fourth straight win would match the Bears’ longest streak since the Super Bowl season of ’06. This will be Chicago’s second appearance on NBC Sunday night already, but it won’t be easy, as HC Lovie Smith’s team lost in Atlanta in ’08, 22-20. Overall though, they are on a 5-2 SU & 5-1-1 ATS run vs. the Falcons. Under Smith, the Bears are 1-6 ATS when playing with two weeks or more of rest and 1-7 ATS when scoring 25+ points in back-to-back games. Atlanta won big at San Francisco, 45-10, and is one a 9-1 SU & 7-3 ATS run at home in Mike Smith’s short tenure. They face a difficult stretch of four road game in their next five following this one.
The Bears are 8-1 to the OVER against teams (Atlanta) that complete 64% or better over the last three seasons and are 8-1 to the OVER against good passing teams averaging 235 or more yards per game over the last 3 seasons. In both situations the average final score exceeded 55 points. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
