Colts vs. Bears odds, picks, spread, how to watch, live stream: Model reveals NFL predictions for Week 3 2024

Caleb Williams is still looking to throw his first NFL touchdown and will get the opportunity when the Chicago Bears (1-1) visit the Indianapolis Colts (0-2) in Week 3 of NFL action on CBS and Paramount+. Chicago has done well despite losing to the Houston Texans in Week 2, but needs more from its offense to get back on track. The Bears will face a Colts team that has also struggled to get positive results from its offense to start the season.

NFL Picks for Week 3 for Bears vs. Colts

Before you tune in to Sunday's Colts vs. Bears game, you need to check out the NFL picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, has gained well over $7,000 in top-rated NFL picks for $100 players since its inception. The model enters Week 3 of the 2024 NFL season with an incredible 187-130 run in top-rated NFL picks dating back to the 2017 season. It also has a 41-22 run in top-rated NFL betting picks since Week 7 2022.

For Colts vs. Bears, the model chooses Chicago to cover the spread. While both teams have young quarterbacks who struggle on offense, the Bears have a defense that can help keep games close. Indy's defense ranks 31st in the league, giving Williams room to finally throw his first NFL touchdown. The Colts are particularly bad rushing, so Bears running back D'Andre Swift could also get into the end zone on Sunday. The Bears may not win this game, but the model is confident they will cover the spread. You may be able to stream the game here.
