The Bears go on the road as a huge underdog against the Cowboys in Week 8. Dallas is an early -480 favorite on the moneyline and favored by 10 points on the spread.

Bears vs Cowboys Prediction Week 8

Early NFL predictions and picks are from ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI).
Bears: 11.6% to win
Cowboys: 88.3% to win

Oddsmakers are giving Dallas a huge edge ahead of the contest. ESPN's FPI also like the Cowboys, by a mile, and I'm in agreement. Dak Prescott is back leading the offense for Dallas while the defense has been outstanding this year. Meanwhile, the Bears look lost. This is a team that's lost three consecutive games and averages a mere 15.5 points per game.

I think Chicago will struggle to score even 10 points against a tough Dallas defense. That's enough to give me confidence in the huge spread and back the Cowboys -10 (-110).
