Pick via Gambling Analyst Sam Panayotovich:

Good luck to Chicago’s defense up front.

If the Bears aren’t getting home with a pass rush – Robert Quinn and Roquan Smith are no longer running through that door – those speedy, skillful Dolphin receivers should eat all afternoon at Soldier Field. Chicago’s D was absolutely shredded against Dallas, and Miami has more weapons.

Also, Chicago’s offense has been surprisingly effective over the last couple of weeks. Luke Getsy is finally starting to call more run plays for quarterback Justin Fields, making the entire attack more dynamic and harder to stop. Let’s not ignore the Bears scoring 62 points in their last two contests.

Don’t be surprised when Miami puts up 30, which leaves only a pair of touchdowns for Chicago to get this thing "Over" the number.
