Dolphins vs. Bears is a game with a wide spread and a big over/under.

The Dolphins are one of two teams with a negative point differential. Miami's last three losses were by a combined 43 points. The Bears have found new ways to get the most out of quarterback Justin Fields. They have had three straight games with 200-plus rushing yards for the first time since 1968. The Dolphins have won four of their last five games by six or fewer points, but they are a different team on the road.

Dolphins and Bears are playing in a game that is over-hyped. Chicago traded away two of its best defenders, Roquan Smith and Robert Quinn. Miami's defense was bolstered with the acquisition of Bradley Chubb. The Dolphins allowed 27 first-half points to Detroit last week.

Fields has been a nightmare for opposing defenses lately. He has had 34 rushing attempts in the last three weeks, with 17 of them being designed runs. Fields anytime touchdown scorer (+170) is a good bet.
