Baltimore Ravens vs Chicago Bears Prediction & Picks - NFL

For the first time since the 2018 season, the Chicago Bears are riding a four-game winning streak — a remarkable turnaround after beginning the year 0-2. Under rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, Chicago has flipped the early narrative entirely. The team's defense, reminiscent of the old "Monsters of the Midway,” has rediscovered its edge.

Over the last four games, the Bears have forced an eye-popping 15 turnovers, ranking among the league's best in takeaways during that span. Their ability to pressure opposing quarterbacks, combined with a rejuvenated secondary that thrives on opportunistic plays, has transformed them into one of the NFL's hottest teams. Now sitting at 4-2, Chicago heads into Baltimore with momentum and swagger on their side.

The same can't be said for the Ravens, who have gone from preseason AFC favorites to a disappointing 1-5 start. Once viewed as legitimate Super Bowl contenders, Baltimore's season has spiraled amid injuries and inconsistency. Their bye week offered a brief reprieve, but it's unlikely to solve their biggest problem — Lamar Jackson's lingering hamstring injury. Reports early this week confirmed that Jackson still hasn't practiced, and the outlook for his return remains bleak. If he misses a third straight game, the Ravens' offense faces another uphill battle.
