This is a 5* play on NO@CHI to go OVER the total.

The New Orleans Saints have not been able to find any consistency, and just a week after upsetting the Steelers in Pittsburgh, they lost at home to Carolina by a score of 41-10. The good news for the Saints is, they are playing a Chicago team that has been consistently terrible, and the playoffs are still within reach.

The Bears are coming off a 41-28 loss to the Cowboys, and only the Atlanta Falcons rank worse in pass defense. Drew Brees will try to cut into a Bears secondary that has allowed an average of 265.5 yards passing per game. The Saints defense ranks just ahead of Chicago allowing 265.2 yards passing per game, but New Orleans has been even worse against the run.

These teams have seen the total go over in five of the last six meetings in Chicago, and the Saints have been a good bet to go over all year, with 10 of their 13 games going over the number.

Take OVER.
