Week 17 Thursday Night Football: Patriots rooting guide, game picks, open thread

Needing a win to keep their small playoff hopes alive, the Seattle Seahawks head to Soldier Field to take on Caleb Williams and the struggling Chicago Bears, losers of nine straight.

Check down below to see Pats Pulpit's picks tonight and head to the comment section to further discussion tonight's Thursday night action.

Go Seahawks! A Bears loss will have a positive impact on the Patriots strength of schedule -- the tiebreaker when it comes to the draft order. | 8:15 p.m. ET, Amazon

Oliver Thomas: Atop the NFC West not long ago, the Seahawks no longer have their playoff destiny in hand after losing to the Packers and Vikings in consecutive weeks. But Geno Smith is toughing it out down the stretch and will have to continue to do so without Kenneth Walker III behind him. And in a must-win against a Bears team that has lost nine straight, Mike Macdonald's defense should spin the dial on No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams. | Seahawks 24, Bears 17

Brian Hines: It has been a struggle for Caleb Williams in his rookie year who now have to try and decipher Mike Macdonald's defensive scheme. Seattle's offense, however, has not been able to get any momentum on the ground averaging the third lowest rushing yards in the league. Without Kenneth Walker, they will likely keep the ball in the air. | Seahawks 27, Bears 20
