You have 0 recent meetings in this checked window, covering the 2024, 2025 and completed 2026 schedules. Tampa Bay Buccaneers went 0-0-0 in those rows. This is a recent slice of the series, not the all-time record. The result and points columns always use Tampa Bay Buccaneers’s side of the score.
Our Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction uses those games as context. Ask what still carries over. Is the same quarterback leading the attack? Are the key blockers and defenders available? An old result can point you toward a matchup to study. It can’t do the whole job for you. The NFL background gives you wider league context, while this pick rests on the current teams.

| Defensive interceptions | 12 | 4 |
| Field-goal success, % | 100.0 | 73.3 |
| Net punt average | 39.8 | 45.5 |
The scoring-margin comparison is 3.4 per game for Tampa Bay Buccaneers and 5.3 for Chicago Bears. It’s a useful first check because it includes both ends of the scoreboard. But it isn’t a full rating. A short field, a return touchdown or a late score can change the number without showing you how the usual drive worked.
Here’s how we calculate the two added passing measures. Sack rate is sacks divided by pass attempts plus sacks. Adjusted net yards per dropback takes passing yards, subtracts sack yards, adds 20 yards for each touchdown pass and subtracts 45 for each interception. Then it divides by attempts plus sacks. You can follow the math from the counts. We aren’t calling it EPA or a private tracking grade.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: where you can place these teams in the NFL picture
| Current measure | Tampa Bay Buccaneers value | NFL rank | Chicago Bears value | NFL rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Points scored per game | 22.3 | 20 | 25.7 | 8 |

| Net passing yards per game | 131.4 | 32 | 236.4 | 13 |

| Field-goal success, % | 100.0 | 1 | 73.3 | 26 |
| Net punt average | 39.8 | 31 | 45.5 | 7 |
Rank 1 is the better direction for that measure. Fewer points allowed is better; more points scored is better. Ties share a rank. All 32 teams are in the same checked snapshot. Keep games played in view when you compare totals such as sacks. A team with an extra game has had more chances to add to that count.

Check the injury section alongside it.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers have taken 23 sacks and lost 129 yards on them. The calculated sack rate is 10.0%. Chicago Bears have recorded 19 defensive sacks.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: how our pick gets the win
Caleb Williams gives Chicago a productive passing route if the protection holds up. The Bears can help him by keeping the run involved and avoiding a sequence of long-yardage dropbacks. Tampa Bay’s defense makes those details important. Chicago needs complete drives, not a plan built around hoping Williams can escape every broken play.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: how the other side can beat the pick
Baker Mayfield’s Buccaneers have found a different way to win in their latest games. Tampa Bay didn’t complete a pass in its win over Atlanta, so don’t use that victory as proof that the passing attack is fixed. The run game and defense carried the result. The next question is whether that combination travels against Chicago.
Chicago’s Monday game can still change the injury picture and the short-week workload. Tampa Bay also brings a defense that can keep this close even if the Bears move the ball. The home selection is modest. If Chicago’s protection or availability takes a hit in Seattle, you’ll need to revisit the strongest part of the pick.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: field position, flags and the kicking game
Tampa Bay Buccaneers have 55 penalties for 404 yards. The field-goal line is 19 made from 19 attempts, or 100.0%. The net punt average is 39.8 yards. These jobs can change a close game without producing a huge offensive box score. A flag that extends a drive can hurt more than its raw yardage suggests.
Chicago Bears have 53 penalties for 411 yards. The field-goal line is 11 made from 15 attempts, or 73.3%. The net punt average is 45.5 yards. These jobs can change a close game without producing a huge offensive box score. A flag that extends a drive can hurt more than its raw yardage suggests.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: the full team and opponent stats
You can check both teams and their opponents side by side here. Keep totals, averages and percentages separate. A passing sack is one taken; a defensive sack is one made.
You can check the season pages for Tampa Bay Buccaneers statistics and Chicago Bears statistics as the week develops. Passing yards and receiving yards overlap on completed passes. Don’t add them together as extra offense. The same caution applies to other connected categories.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: your final checks before kickoff
There’s a useful study of football scores and statistical models if you want more background on score-based analysis. You can study a pattern without calling it certain. The comparisons here are open to inspection. They don’t claim a fitted win probability or a private model that the tables can’t support.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: quick betting questions
Do you need a certain winning margin?
No. We’re picking Chicago Bears to win. You don’t need a spread cover for that opinion to be right. Our moneyline guide explains the difference. Check how the market handles an NFL tie before you place a wager.
Are those player totals predictions?
No. They show work already recorded. The depth table shows listed roles, and the injury table shows dated status reports. None of them guarantees a future target count, carry total or starting assignment. You get a better picture when you read those three pieces together.
Why can the record and scoring margin disagree?
A team can win several close games and lose a few by larger margins. That leaves a good record with a weaker scoring balance. The reverse can happen too. Wins set the standings. Scoring margin helps you ask how those wins happened. You need both before you call one team clearly better.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears Betting Prediction: our Week 9 winner pick
