Bears vs. Rams Week 1

Point spread: Rams -7.5

Point total: 43.5

Moneyline: Rams -350, Bears +275

The Rams are the biggest Week 1 favorite, with the line being set by over a touchdown. With the addition of quarterback Matthew Stafford this offseason, the oddsmakers fully expect a quick start from the Rams' offense.

However, Stafford has yet to receive a snap under center, being sidelined for the entire preseason as a result of coach Sean McVay resting his starters. 

The Bears will run out veteran quarterback Andy Dalton but also have Justin Fields in their back pocket — who looked promising in limited preseason play — if things don’t look encouraging for Dalton's Bears debut.

Kickoff for this primetime showing is set for 5:20 p.m. PT on NBC.
