NFL Week 4 First Touchdown Scorer Picks & Predictions: Bears vs. Giants (2022)

Chicago Bears @ New York Giants

Justin Fields

Odds: +800 via Caesars Sportsbook

Justin Fields and Khalil Herbert lead the Bears in red zone touches. They both have eight attempts, but Herbert has two more TDs than Fields. He probably has more because he has five rush attempts inside the five compared to Fields’ two carries. If David Montgomery misses this game, which is the expectation, the Bears’ game plan may feature Fields’ ability to use his legs. The Giants allow 5.3 yards per rush attempt, and the Bears want to run the ball. Fields has a great chance of scoring the first TD and has better odds than Herbert.

What is Betting Against the Spread?

Betting “against the spread” refers to the act of choosing the winning team based on a numeric handicap placed on the team that oddsmakers believe is superior, rather than picking the outright winner. For example, if the Rams face the Bengals, and oddsmakers set the spread at Rams -3.5, you would need Los Angeles to win by 4 or more points in order to cash your Rams bet.

What is an Over/Under Bet?

Over/Under is a wager based on how many points you think will be scored in a specific game. Oddsmakers set the total, and bettors decide whether the final score will be higher or lower than that number. If an Over/Under is set at 44.5 points and you bet Over, you will need the combined score of both teams to be 45 points or higher to win your bet.

What is a Moneyline Bet?

A moneyline bet involves choosing which team you believe will win a specific matchup. The moneyline favorite carries a minus designation, like -130. This means that you need to wager $130 to earn a $100 profit. Conversely, the underdog carries a plus designation, like +110. This means that you win $110 in profit on a $100 bet.
