NE @ CHIThu 10/22Final: NE 24, CHI 30CHI −3CHI −3 WIN 5/5 NE has ~3/4 of the tickets and money, yet Chicago moved from 1.5 to 3. Vrabel hinted three injured O-line starters likely sit Thursday.CHI −3 WIN 3/5 Chicago's offense is humming at home behind Caleb Williams, and the NE defense on a short week will struggle to get off the field.CHI −3 WIN 3/5 Patriots' OL injuries and short-week travel tilt it to the home Bears.NE +3 LOSS 2/5 NE can keep it within a FG, but losing both starting guards and CB Carlton Davis makes it tougher on the road.—
PIT @ NOSun 10/25NO +3.5NO +3.5 4/5 Neutral field, hook past 3.

TB @ CARSun 10/25CAR −3TB +3 2/5 The line flipped 4.5 points off Bucs −1.5, mostly on Mayfield's thumb.

Mike Evans (Achilles) and Deebo Samuel (hamstring) are out.SF −3 3/5 Coaching and efficiency edge in high-leverage situations.SF −3 3/5 Undefeated talent outweighs the road trip and the receiver injuries.SF −3 3/5 Stronger overall profile, though road favorite limits confidence.ATL +3 Best Bet

Vector sides are every game on a week that publishes a full side map, and Best Bets plus Leans on earlier weeks. Best-bet units use the stated size, or flat 1U when none is stated. Pick 5 counts when Vector published one.
