Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri had connected on all eight of his field goal attempts this season, including a 53-yarder. Connor Barth is a disappointing two-for-four for the Bears thus far. Chicago’s coverage teams on kickoffs has been fairly decent, and the same could’ve been said about their punt coverage unit, until they surrendered an 85-yard punt return for a touchdown late in their Week 4 game. One could make an argument that the Bears’ special teams unit is their weakest phase.

Advantage: Colts
