Only diehard fans and bettors will be watching “Thursday Night Football” when the Bears host the Panthers. Chicago is a 4-point favorite at Caesars Sportsbook, while Carolina is +162 on the money line. The total is 39. The Panthers are 1-6-1 against the spread this season and have lost all four road games. The Bears are 2-7 straight up but could see Justin Fields return at quarterback against the Panthers after he missed the past three games with a dislocated thumb.
