The Denver Broncos and Chicago Bears are both winless on the season, but one of these franchises will hope to get on the mend on Sunday on CBS and Paramount+. Both teams were embarrassed last week, with Denver losing 70-20 and giving up 726 yards of total offense against Miami, while the Bears were throttled 41-10 by the Chiefs.

Week 4 NFL picks for Broncos vs. Bears

Before tuning into Sunday's Bears vs. Broncos game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 4 of the 2023 NFL season on an incredible 167-117 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 21-9 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of last season.

The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick'em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

For Broncos vs. Bears, the model is going Over 47 total points. The 111 points these two teams combined to surrender in Week 3 make it clear how much these two defenses are struggling, but the yardage figures spell it out in even greater detail.

Denver was gutted for 726 yards of total offense, with 350 of those coming on the ground. The Dolphins were running simple concepts in four-minute offense for the entire second half hoping to grind out the clock and the Broncos just kept missing tackles, allowing De'Von Achane, Raheem Mostert and even Chris Brooks plenty of open space to run.

Meanwhile, the Bears gave up 456 yards to the Chiefs a week after giving up 437 yards to the Buccaneers. Chicago has one sack on the season, while Denver only has four. That inability to create pressure by either team is a major contributor to the model predicting that the Over hits in over 50% of simulations. You may be able to stream the game here.
