Chicago Bears +3
Justin Fields Over 53.5 Rushing Yards
TJ Hockenson Over 6.5 Receptions
DJ Moore Over 4.5 Receptions
DJ Moore Over 59.5 Receiving Yards

This week’s Monday Night Football is an NFC North Matchup between the Justin Fields-led Chicago Bears and Joshua Dobbs’ Minnesota Vikings.

The Vikings currently occupy the final NFC playoff spot and will be looking to solidify that place but they will meet an improved Chicago Bears team with Number 1 back under center. We’ve got the best bets for you on Monday night.

Chicago Bears +3

The Bears pushed the Lions all the way last weekend and only for some questionable coaching calls, should’ve had their fourth win of the season. A lot of the recent improvement in the Bears play has been down to their defence.

With their secondary getting healthy along with the addition of Montez Sweat on the D-Line has made this a solid unit. I feel Josh Dobbs will be under significant pressure on Monday night.

Then it’ll be up to Justin Fields to get the job done and he has all the capabilities of such. The handicap is +3 which gives us the hook and I’ll gladly take it.

Justin Fields Over 53.5 Rushing Yards

With Justin Fieldsback, the Bears have returned to basics with their QB after he was sidelined for more than a month. Last week, JF1 had 18 carries for 104 yards and a touchdown on the ground against the Lions.

Now he might not get 100 yards again this week but a line of 52 yards is very appealing for the dual threat QB.

TJ Hockenson Over 6.5 Receptions

Since Joshua Dobbs has come to the Vikings the Iowa tight-end has been his go to man. The Bears are very stout on run defence but they struggle with the pass especially to tight-ends.

The Bears defence is tied with the third-most receptions allowed to tight ends. I’d expect TJ to go over on Monday.

DJ Moore Over 4.5 Receptions

Like Dobbs, Fields has a go-to target and that’s DJ Moore. Acquired in their trade package with the Panthers for the number 1 overall pick, DJ Moore has proven to be the unquestioned WR1 in the Windy City.

Fields and Moore have proven they can show out in Primetime too when he went eight catches, 230 yards and three Touchdowns v the Commanders. He had seven catches last week for 96 yards against the Lions so I love his line of Over 4.5 this week.

DJ Moore Over 59.5 Receiving Yards

His line of 4.5 receptions appealed but so does his yardage of Over 59.5 yards. He has hit this on five of his eight games and he averages 80 yards this season.

DJ has a team high of 889 yards and is their main target in the passing game. Once more in Primetime, JF will look for his guy.
