This is a 10* Week 1 NFLX SIDE OF THE YEAR on the Chicago Bears.

"Motivation" is a big factor to take into account when handicapping any game. For the most part teams use the preseason as a time to figure out what they need to work on and which people to keep and which to let go. Most week's games are completely meaningless in the preseason, but every now and then there comes along a situation where one side would be more motivated than the other and in our professional opinion, that's the case here!

Denver: The Broncos just won the Super Bowl and their future Hall Of Fame QB retired immediately after. Clearly Denver could care less if it wins today, it has so many issues to deal with and address, including a QB competition after backup Brock Osweiler also left the team in the offseason.

Chicago: Da Bears finished 6-10 last year despite QB Jay Cutler putting together one of his best seasons, posting a career-best 92.4 passer rating.

The bottom line: It was another dismal season for Chicago last year, but here's the perfect opponent to start the 2016/17 season off against. A win against the defending champions in front of the home town crowd will be something everyone in the organization will be hungry to accomplish. While both teams will be utilzing almost entirely backup and wannabe players, we think the motivation factor does indeed heavily favor the BEARS this evening.
