Bears vs. Cardinals Player Prop
The rushing yards prop for D’Onta Foreman against the Cardinals is at 39.5. A bet on the over has a payout of -114 compared to the under at -118. The implied odds for the over are 53%.
D’Onta Foreman is currently 36th among running backs in rushing attempts this season, accumulating 425 yards so far. As he enters this week’s game, his average yards per carry stands at 3. Facing the Cardinals’ rush defense, I like the value of taking the over on Foreman’s rushing yards prop of 39.5 yards.
- The Prop: D’Onta Foreman Over 39.5 Rushing Yards (-114)
Bears VS. Cardinals Predictions
Chicago initially opened as 2.5 point favorites on their home turf. The lines have shifted in their favor, now standing at -4.
Chicago’s passing game struggled in their recent matchup against Cleveland. I don’t anticipate a sudden improvement, which is why I’m favoring Arizona as a 4-point underdog.
