After winning their first game of the season, the Bears started to look like their same old selves, dropping back-to-back games with a couple of lackluster performances, especially on offense. However, that changed last Sunday, as Caleb Williams started to look a little comfortable against the Los Angeles Rams. Williams threw his touchdown NFL pass in a 24-18 win, leading all four scoring drives for the Bears. It certainly helped that Chicago's defense held firm, keeping their opponent to less than 20 points for the third time this season.

Another team that has seen great struggles over the last couple of years, especially with their young quarterback, Bryce Young, is the Carolina Panthers. After a couple of disappointing outings to start the new season, the team elected to bench Young for veteran Andy Dalton. The move has seemed to have paid off, as Dalton led Carolina to a win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3, before hanging in there with the Cincinnati Bengals last Sunday, ultimately losing 34-24. With Dalton taking the snaps, the Panthers have a renewed sense of confidence and have a good chance to win in Chi-Town.

The Bears are 8-4 against the Panthers, all-time, including a 16-13 win over Chicago.

MY PICK: Bears win, 20-17
