A futures bet is worth making only when you rate the chance higher than the price does. We make no futures pick: our method is built for single games, and it says nothing about a whole season.
The NFC North race
| Team | Record | Division price |
|---|---|---|
| Minnesota Vikings | 3-0 | +144 |
| Detroit Lions | 2-1 | +160 |
| Chicago Bears | 2-1 | +390 |
| Green Bay Packers | 1-2 | +960 |
At the same record as Detroit, Chicago is priced well behind it. Chicago has already lost one division game, 9-3 at home to Minnesota in Week 2, and has five more to play. The Bears go to Green Bay on October 11 and Detroit on Thanksgiving, then host Green Bay on Christmas Day and Detroit on January 3, and close at Minnesota.
Results: 2026 so far, and last season
- Week 1: won 59-37 at Carolina.
- Week 2: lost 9-3 at home to Minnesota.
- Week 3: beat Philadelphia 27-7 at home on Monday night, September 28.
Three games have produced two opposite pictures of this offense: 59 points in the opener and 3 the following week. Treat any season-long number built on three weeks with that range in mind.
The 2025 Bears went 11-6, won the NFC North and entered the playoffs as the No. 2 seed. They beat Green Bay 31-27 at home, then lost 20-17 at home to the Los Angeles Rams.
What comes next
The Bears host the New York Jets on Sunday, October 4; our Jets at Bears prediction has the call and the numbers behind it. The bye is in Week 10.
