Bears @ Steelers More or Less Contest
Recommended Prop Pick:
Ben Roethlisberger less than 240.5 passing yards and Justin Fields more than 175.5 passing yards
Big Ben is certainly capable of going over this number, but he will likely not have to given how poor the Bears have played against running backs in recent weeks. This is a game with a total hovering around 40 points and should be a grind-it-out type game for the Steelers where they rely heavily on Najee Harris to get the job done. The Bears are also allowing an average of just 237 passing yards per game over the previous four weeks as well.
Justin Fields has hovered around this number in recent weeks as he has thrown for 174, 184, and 175 passing yards over the previous three weeks, respectively. He will have his hands full vs. a Steeler defense that has allowed an average of 240 passing yards over the previous three weeks, and the Bears may be able to find success on the ground in this one. The Steelers have allowed running backs to rush for an average of 108 rushing yards per game over their previous three games and the Bears have shown a propensity to run the ball with Khalil Herbert as he has at least 18 rushing attempts in each of the previous four games he has started. Look for the Bears to come out running the ball to the best of their ability and keep Fields under this number.

Bears @ Steelers Rush Hour Contest
Recommended Prop Pick:
Najee Harris and Khalil Herbert to rush for more than 186.5 rushing yards
Harris has been a workhorse for the Steelers lately as he has averaged 24 rushing attempts per game over his previous three games and has managed to rush for an average of 98 rushing yards per game over that span. He will be facing a Bears' defense that allowed an average of 126.5 rushing yards per game to the running back position over the previous four weeks, which ranks second-worst in the league. Add in the fact that the Steelers are seven-point favorites in this game and you could have a recipe for a strong performance from Harris.
Herbert is another guy that has seen a lot of work lately as he has averaged nearly 20 carries per game over the previous four weeks while also averaging 86 rushing yards per game. This Steelers' defense has allowed an average of 108 rushing yards per game to running backs over the previous three games and recently allowed Alex Collins of the Seahawks to rush for over 100 yards against them. This is a spot where the Bears may try to get the run game established early and Herbert would certainly benefit from that in this contest.
