AP staff Thursday Night Football predictions and discussion for Week 6

The Chiefs play the Bills on Sunday — but the weekend action opens with the Commanders and Bears on TNF.

Chicago Bears v Minnesota Vikings

Week 6 of the NFL season kicks off with the Chicago Bears (2-3) hosting the Washington Commanders (1-4) on Thursday Night Football.

We’ll see an interesting contrast in approaches — as the Commanders try to get another solid season out of 30-year-old veteran Carson Wentz, while the Bears continue trying to develop second-year quarterback Justin Fields.

According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Commanders are favored by one point.

Here are our picks for Thursday night’s game. Be sure to cast your vote, too — and discuss the game in the comments!
