The Washington Commanders (-6)
(2-2) host the Chicago Bears (+6) (0-4) to start Week 5 on Thursday Night Football. After their first third-quarter drive, the Bears took a 28-7 lead over the hapless Denver Broncos (-2.5) on Sunday. Chicago proceeded to surrender 24 consecutive points to the Broncos, resulting in Chicago’s fourth loss of the season.
Justin Fields, the much-maligned Bears’ quarterback, threw for 335 yards and four touchdowns in the game, but Chicago’s first win remains elusive. Washington went toe-to-toe with the defending NFC Champion Eagles in Week 4.
Washington forced overtime after tying the game on a Jahan Dotson touchdown with zero seconds on the clock.
