Monday Night Football will likely be a defensive battle between the Chicago Bears and New England Patriots. At this point, there’s a pattern developing of primetime games being low scoring, but we can still find a few player prop bets to make. I’ve picked out one rushing prop and one passing prop, so let’s get right into my favorite player prop bets for Monday Night Football.
Here’s our Bears vs Patriots preview
Rhamondre Stevenson over 63.5 rushing yards (-115)
Mac Jones is expected to make his return for Monday Night Football after missing three weeks with an ankle injury. Even with the Patriots starting QB coming back, I expect New England to rely on the running game. The Chicago defense has been terrible against the run this season as they rank 31st in rushing yards allowed and nearly the most rushing touchdowns as well. This is a perfect game for the Patriots to ease Jones back into the game by letting Stevenson take the brunt of the load on offense and getting around 20 touches. The opposing running back has cleared this line in 4 of Chicago's last 5 games, and I don't anticipate that changing as it's become clear the running game is how you beat the Bears.
