Bears the worst team at covering the spread in 2019

It’s no secret that the Bears didn’t live up to the hype in 2019.

Fresh off of their first playoff appearance since 2010 and an NFC North divisional crown in 2018, many fans expected Chicago to see at least a similar degree of success last season. However, they failed to reach those expectations, finishing with an 8-8 record and placing third in their division.

Their inability to reach expectations not only provided for a disappointing season, but it also translated to the world of sports betting.

Despite avoiding placing below .500, the Bears were the worst team in the NFL in terms of covering the spread, going 4-12 in doing so according to this NFL betting page, and were ultimately the best team to bet againstu200bu200b when trying to cover.
