Justin Fields will start for the Bears and play 6-10 snaps. Trevor Siemien should close out the first half and may also start the second, with Nathan Peterman closing out the game.

Drew Lock was expected to start tonight’s game, but will miss it tonight due to COVID-19 protocols. Geno Smith will start and could end up playing the entire first half. Due to Lock’s absence, we will likely see Jacob Eason play for most, if not all of the second half.

The Seahawks have the edge for tonight’s game and the 3.5-point spread seems right. The 39.5 total also seems spot on, especially with both teams potentially playing starters for 1-2 quarters.

However, I will be looking to bet the under in the second half (ideally if it’s 17.5 or higher), which will likely be Peterman vs. Eason.
