The Bears closed as a 6.5-point home favorite on Sunday after Lions QB Matt Stafford was [ruled out with](https://www.betchicago.com/lions-bears-point-spread-jeff-driskel-matt-stafford) a back injury. Despite a slow start that had fans booing once again, Chicago was able to secure its third cover of the season in a 20-13 win. Lions backup QB Jeff Driskel, who has made just nine appearances in the NFL, out-played Mitch Trubisky early as the Lions took a 6-0 lead deep into the second quarter, but the first of three Trubisky touchdowns put the Bears up for good with just 25 seconds left in the first half. <a href="https://twitter.com/ChicagoBears/status/1193611531096854528" class="embedly-card" data-card-width="100%" data-card-controls="0">Embedded content: https://twitter.com/ChicagoBears/status/1193611531096854528</a> The Lions made things interesting late, driving 65 yards with under two minutes left in the game, but an incomplete pass from Driskel with seven seconds left secured the Bears win. The total stayed UNDER the closing line of 38, which dropped significantly after Stafford was ruled out. UNDER is now 6-3 for the Bears on the season. Chicago's ending was a good sweat for public bettors, but the same couldn't be said for the Chiefs. ## Botched FGs lead to Titans win The Chiefs (-5.5) were the most popular bet of the week at several sportsbooks in the country and things were looking good in Tennessee until a botched field goal attempt with 1:27 left that would have put KC up 35-27. Kansas City was in position to cover had the field goal gone through, but at least they would still earn the cash for [moneyline bettors](https://twitter.com/Covers_Vegas/status/1193548143515721731), right? Nope. Titans QB Ryan Tannehill led a 4-play, 61-yard touchdown drive to give the home team a 35-32 lead with 23 seconds left. Not be outdone, Patrick Mahomes got KC down to the Titans' 34-yard line in two plays, giving Chiefs bettors the slim chance of a cover in overtime. Instead, kicker Ryan Succop had a game-tying 52-yard FG blocked to end the game. <a href="https://twitter.com/NFL/status/1193638004885090304" class="embedly-card" data-card-width="100%" data-card-controls="0">Embedded content: https://twitter.com/NFL/status/1193638004885090304</a> ## Missed FG also costs Bills The Browns were the target of several [sharp players](https://www.betchicago.com/nfl-week-10-sharp-action-big-bets-browns) this past week at less than a field goal favorite and the bets cashed for the pros thanks to a missed kick from Bills' Stephen Hauschka that would have forced overtime. Like the Titans' results, the Browns' 19-16 win was great for the books who need the Bills by a large margin despite sharp action on Cleveland. The Bills has a 91.5% chance of winning with under six minutes left, but Baker Mayfield led the Browns on a 10-play, 82-yard drive in under four minutes to take the 3-point lead. ## Falcons bust popular parlays Those of the betting public that didn't have the Chiefs in their moneyline parlays this week likely had the Saints, who were a 13.5-point home favorite against the Falcons. It was New Orleans that looked like the 1-7 SU team instead of its division rivals as Drew Brees was sacked six times and the offense was held without a touchdown at the Superdome the second time this season. Fixable mistakes cost the Saints, including a turnover and 12 penalties for 90 yards, which often extended Atlanta drives on third and fourth down. The loss marked the Saints' first non-cover in seven games, while Atlanta moved to 3-6 ATS on the year. ## Dolphins cover fifth straight in upset of Colts Don't look now, but Miami is one of the hottest bets in the NFL. Closing as an 11-point underdog, the Dolphins pulled their second outright upset, beating the Colts 16-12 in Indianapolis. The Colts were down to backup QB Brian Hoyer and were without wide receiver with T.Y. Hilton (calf), but [oddsmakers thought](https://www.betchicago.com/jacoby-brissett-injury-update-colts-line-dolphins-betting-odds) the dropoff from Jacoby Brissett to Hoyer wouldn't matter much to the outcome of the game. Hoyer threw three interceptions against a defense that entered ranked last in DVOA (Defense-adjusted Value Over Average) for total defense and was unable to convert on fourth-and-10 from the Dolphins' 16-yard line with 38 seconds left in the game. The loss marked the Colts' second embarrassing home defeat as the Dolphins joined the Raiders as teams to upset Indy at Lucas Oil Stadium. The Colts' loss drops them to 5-4 SU and 4-4-1 ATS on the season. Kicking concerns remain as Adam Vinatieri missed an extra point that would have given Indy a chance to force overtime with another field goal instead of coming up short on fourth down at the end of the game. But, who is to say Vinatieri would have made the clutch field goal anyhow considering he missed a game-winner last week against the Steelers. ## Panthers also come up short Christian McCaffrey came up just inches shy of a last-second touchdown in the snow that would have had drastic implications on both the side and total for Panthers-Packers bettors. On the final play of an 18-play, 88-yard drive, Carolina handed the ball off to its MVP candidate hoping to bring the Panthers within a 2-point conversion of tying the game at 24 and breathing new life into the total of 49. Instead, replay review showed the running back was shy of the goal line and with the Panthers out of timeouts, the game was over. <a href="https://twitter.com/VersaceBoyEnt3/status/1193691870662148096?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1193691870662148096&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fbetindiananews.com%2Fweek-10-bad-beats-upsets-crazy-finishes-bears-lions%2F" class="embedly-card" data-card-width="100%" data-card-controls="0">Embedded content: https://twitter.com/VersaceBoyEnt3/status/1193691870662148096?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1193691870662148096&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fbetindiananews.com%2Fweek-10-bad-beats-upsets-crazy-finishes-bears-lions%2F</a> With the win and cover (-5.5), the Packers move to 8-2 SU and 7-3 ATS. Green Bay has a bye week before playing at the currently undefeated 49ers. *This article will be updated throughout Sunday's games*
