The point spread for Titans vs. Bears in Week 1 is Bears -3.5. The Bears finished the 2023 slightly better than the Titans, going 7-10 to Tennessee's 6-11.

Tennessee Titans Chances to Win vs. Chicago Bears

The Titans have a 38.35% chance to beat the Bears. Their chances are calculated using implied probability based on odds from DraftKings. Here is how it is calculated for each team using +150 odds for the Titans and -180 odds for the Bears:

Titans chances: 100 รท (150 + 100) * 100 = 40%
Bears chances: 180 รท (180 + 100) * 100 = 64.29%

However, the above percentages add up to 104.29%. This is due to the vig, which is the house edge for the sportsbook which allows them to profit off the bet. To remove the vig, we simply divide each team's chance by 104.29.

Titans chances (after vig): 40 รท 104.29 = 38.35%
Bears chances (after vig): 64.29 รท 104.29 = 61.65%

Note that both of the final team chances above finally equal 100%. Hence, the 38.35% chance to win for the Titans. You can bet on the Titans' chances to beat the Bears on live Tennessee sports betting apps.

How Tennessee Wins vs. Chicago

It's still early to predict this game since the NFL season hasn't begun. However, it's probably save to say that much of this game will hinge on the performance of second-year Titans quarterback Will Levis. He has a few more weapons this year like receivers Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd and running back Tony Pollard, so he should be more set up for success in 2024.
