1* Free Pick on Bears/Seahawks: under 46½
Seattle's elite home defense sets up a heavy low-scoring environment on Monday night when the Seahawks host the Bears at Lumen Field. Seattle enters Week 8 featuring a top-two unit in overall defensive efficiency, excelling at shutting down explosive plays and forcing opponents into long third downs.
Chicago brings a 5-2 record into Seattle built on a formula of tough defensive play and controlled ground work. Traveling into one of the league's toughest road venues forces the Bears into a conservative game plan focused on ball security and keeping their own defense fresh.
That style fits right into how Seattle wants to play football. The Seahawks rely on winning trench battles and managing time of possession, which keeps overall snap counts lower than average.
Prime-time games between two physical teams with playoff aspirations naturally turn into field-position grinds. Neither coaching staff has an incentive to turn this contest into a high-risk shootout.
When game flow dictates slow clock execution and heavy defensive line dominance, this number offers real value on the total.
Take the Under 46.5 (-110) in the Bears at Seahawks game.

Monday Night Football Perfect System Side is up along with an Opening College Hoops Game 1 Blowout system. NHL Comp play below
The NHL Comp play is on the over 6 goals in the Vegas at Boston game at 7:10 eastern. This has been a high scoring series with 5 straight going over. The Bruins are on a 4-1 over run at home. The game fits a solid scoring system for home teams with a total of 6 or higher that scored 5 or more as a home favorite vs an opponent that scored 2 or less in home loss if both teams are over .500. Look for this game to play over GL Rob V-

My selection is on Indiana State plus the points over Charlotte at 7 pm et on Monday.
Charlotte rolled to a 92-76 win in last year's season-opener against Indiana State. I look for the Sycamores to exact their revenge at home on Monday. Charlotte has a rebuilt roster under first year head coach Wes Miller. That's not necessarily a bad thing as the 49ers have brought in a lot of talent from power conference teams. I do question whether they come roaring out of the gates with so many new faces, however. It does figure to take some time for everything to come together. Indiana State is led by head coach Matthew Graves who is entering his third season at the helm. There's really nowhere to go but up for the Sycamores off an 11-21 season. It is worth noting that they did manage to go 8-7 at home. While the new additions to the team may not be as high-profile as those of Charlotte, there's an influx of talent from lesser-known schools with a point to prove here in 2026-27. Of note, Indiana State lost by only seven points against Butler in a preseason tune-up game. Take Indiana State (8*).
