We are back with 3 props to consider playing this week as the Bears head to Atlanta to take on the Falcons. Last week we had an unfortunate 1-2 record, which dropped our season record to 7-8. Certainly not taking names like we have the last two years, but we still have plenty of time to turn this one around.
Caleb Williams is set to return, which should be a boost to the offense, but the Bears defense is banged up, which could open the door for some big gains on the Falcons side of the ball. Here
are this week’s plays. As always, odds courtesy of FanDuel.
Bijan Robinson OVER 90.5 Rushing Yards -114
I hate putting this one in the article, but how can I not? The Bears’ run defense hasn’t been overly stout this year. Even when the defense was playing better, now we have a situation where Montez Sweat, TJ Edwards, and Dayo Odeyingbo are going to miss this game. The Bears’ front seven is definitely hurting, and it just feels like Robinson is destined to have a big game.
Colston Loveland OVER 36.5 Receiving Yards -114
The Colston Loveland breakout game has to be coming, so why not have it come against the Falcons? After having only 3 receiving yards in his first two games. It’s not like Loveland has been on fire, but he does have 107 yards over his last three games, which averages out to 35.8 yards per game. With Caleb Williams getting back behind center, it feels like this is where Loveland could break out and put some bigger numbers on the board. I’m not sure if he’s cracking 100 yards or anything, but I feel like he should easily get north of 50 or 60 yards this week, and there’s a good chance he finds the endzone.
Kalif Raymond OVER 24.5 Receiving Yards -114
When Kalif Raymond played with Caleb Williams and Case Keenum, he had games of 90, 84, and 40 yards. When he played with Tyson Bagent, he had two games where he had a total of 5 catches for 12 yards. For whatever reason, Bagent couldn’t work the ball to Raymond. But Caleb Williams should be back, and if he is, how can you not like Caleb working the ball back to Raymond? I’m not saying Raymond has a massive game, but it feels like he can comfortably go over 40 or 50 yards this week.
