Pick via Gambling Analyst Sam Panayotovich:

This total is so low it kills me.

It’s probably going to be a sweat with these two offenses – and these two quarterbacks – but there’s literally zero margin for error with a total in the high 30s. One pick-six or punt return could blow the entire thing wide open.

Chicago and Houston played a game totaled at 39.5 three weeks ago at Soldier Field and it crept "Over" with a 23-20 final. Washington’s pass rush will create opportunities for Justin Fields to make plays with his legs, and Chicago’s run defense is the worst in the league.

Also, there’s a decent possibility that Fields or Carson Wentz commits a miserable turnover that leads to instantaneous points the other way.

Let’s go "Over" a disrespectful total on Thursday night.

PICK: Over 37.5 points scored by both teams combined at FOX Bet
