Week 7 begins with a battle between two 4-2 teams with Super Bowl aspirations as the Chicago Bears host the New England Patriots on Thursday Night Football!

Drake Maye and the Patriots are on a roll. After a rough 1-2 start to the season, New England has won three in a row, including a victory over fellow AFC East heavyweight Buffalo Bills. Week 6 wasn’t an easy day at the office for the Pats, winning a competitive 26-19 matchup against the New York Jets.

There’s reason for optimism in Chicago, too. Franchise quarterback Caleb Williams returned last week, leading the Bears to a 31-23 win against the Atlanta Falcons. Williams completed 30 of 36 passes for 305 yards, and D’Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson combined for 95 rushing yards and three touchdowns.
