Best NFL Player Props for Bears vs. Eagles
Here are my top player prop bets, with kickoff scheduled for 3:00 PM ET on Friday, November 28th:
- Saquon Barkley Over/Under 77.5 Rushing Yards
- Dallas Goedert Over/Under 34.5 Receiving Yards
- A.J. Brown Over/Under 60.5 Receiving Yards
Saquon Barkley OVER 77.5 Rushing Yards (-114, FanDuel)
FANDUELThe Bears will be without their top four linebackers, with Tremaine Edmunds, T.J. Edwards, Noah Sewell, and Ruben Hyppolite all ruled out. In Week 12, Pittsburgh exploited this vulnerability with ease, running for 186 yards. Kenneth Gainwell and Jaylen Warren combined to average 5.7 yards per carry.
Barkley has mostly struggled to date this season, averaging a pedestrian 3.7 yards per carry, but it’s difficult to find a better get-right spot for him and this Philadelphia ground attack than today’s matchup against Chicago’s injury-depleted defense.
Dallas Goedert OVER 34.5 Receiving Yards (-110, BetMGM)
BETMGMIn weeks that LB T.J. Edwards has been unavailable, Chicago’s defense has been shredded by tight ends. Notably, they have allowed 82 receiving yards to Jake Ferguson, 46 receiving yards to Brock Bowers, and 75 receiving yards to Theo Johnson. T.J. Hockenson could have had a bigger day against the Bears in Week 11, if not for J.J. McCarthy badly missing him on a few targets – still, he ended the game with 39 receiving yards. In Week 12, Pittsburgh’s tight ends combined for 8 receptions and 62 receiving yards.
Goedert hasn’t been heavily involved in the Philadelphia passing attack the last 2 games, but that could change in this game given the matchup. This is a low number that he could potentially clear with only 2 or 3 receptions.
A.J. Brown UNDER 60.5 Receiving Yards (-115, BetMGM)
BETMGMBrown has been force-fed targets against the Lions and Cowboys in the last 2 games, which resulted in 7 receptions and 8 receptions, respectively. We could see some negative regression for him against Chicago though, with star CB Jaylon Johnson scheduled to return.
Brown is also much better against man coverage than zone coverage – the Bears have played 2 of their 3 lowest rates of man coverage in their last couple of games. If Philadelphia is playing from in front, it’s also possible that they take a ground-and-pound approach, limiting Brown’s opportunities through the air.
There are a number of ways in which Brown could stay under this number.
