Pick: Washington -5.5 (-115)
Week number five of the 2023-24 National Football League season is here and the Chicago Bears will travel to Maryland to play the Washington Commanders. Both of these teams will be looking for a huge victory before heading into the middle of their season as they are both competing for a playoff spot in the NFC this season. Both of them will also be looking to find their footing after a rough start to the season as well. As Chicago will be searching for their first victory of the season, and Washington will be looking to get their record above .500.
It has been a less than impressive year for the Chicago Bears so far this season, as they have had problems both on the football field and off of the football field as well. They will be looking to grab a victory here on Thursday night against the Washington Commanders, as they look to pick up their first victory of the young season, and hopefully get things rolling in the right direction for them throughout the remainder of the year. Quarterback Justin Fields continues to blossom into one of the best young quarterbacks in the entire league, and he will be looking to keep the momentum rolling here on Thursday night against Washington.
As Chicago looks to pick up what feels like a must win victory in the opening game of week five of the season, if they want to remain competitive and in the playoff hunt throughout the remainder of the year. The Chicago Bears haven’t looked too great in their first four games of the season as they have had a problem stopping teams on the defensive side of the football and then a game like this where the other teams offensive also struggles this is a great opportunity for Chicago to pick up their first victory of the season.

Washington will be looking to continue adding to the Chicago Bears struggles here in week number five with a victory over Chicago here on Thursday night at home. Washington has been solid throughout the first four weeks of the season but they have been pretty inconsistent at times as well. They will be looking for a way to get Jahan Dotson involved in the office, and if they can do that, they would certainly ramp up their offense of production throughout the remainder of the season, and give themselves more opportunities to win games throughout the year as well.
Sam Howell will be looking to get the job done in this game against the Chicago Bears on Thursday night at home as Washington looks to grab their third victory of the year. The commanders will be looking to keep pace in the NFC division alongside the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys heading into the middle of the season and they can do that by grabbing a victory here on Thursday night to wrap up their week five early on and give themselves plenty of time off before heading into the next game. I expect the Washington Commanders to have a quality performance in this game and grab the victory as well as cover the spread in the process.
Betting trends to consider in this matchup:
- Washington is 2-2 “Against The Spread” this season
- Chicago is 0-2-1 “Against The Spread” after a loss
- Chicago is 0-2 “Against The Spread” on the road
I expect this game to be back-and-forth throughout the majority of the contest, but in the end I look for the Washington Commanders to pick up the victory at home here on Thursday night to open up week five of the season. As I look for Washington to pick up a much-needed victory to grab their third win of the season, and for them to cover the spread in the process against a very lackluster Chicago Bears team here on Thursday night at home.
