Chicago Bears: Justin Fields
The Prop: Justin Fields Rushing Yards vs. Baltimore Ravens
The Odds: Over 34.5 (-115)/Under 34.5 (-115)
The Bears offense has gone through quite the transformation over the last few weeks, but I think one thing is very much real. Justin Fields is running the ball more on both scrambles and bootlegs in the passing game, and with designed runs and the offense looks WAY better with designed runs.

That means that I expect the Bears to keep doing it, and I think that it is nowhere near a coincidence. Mike Vick is even on record as reaching out to Fields a few weeks ago to tell him to run more, which happened right before Fields started to run more.
Fields can break a 36 yard run on one play, never mind getting there throughout a game. Last week, he only played one half of football, and he still got easily over this number, and his athleticism makes getting over this number easy.
Dallas Cowboys: CeeDee Lamb
The Prop: CeeDee Lamb Receptions vs. Kansas City Chiefs
The Odds: Over 5.5 (-115)/Under 5.5 (-115)
CeeDee Lamb is in a great matchup this week after going off in a short game last week, and I think he is being undersold this week. With Michael Gallup back, Lamb should see a limited workload. Wrong, and I believe that this will eventually be well-known, but we’re not there yet.
Lamb has been great with or without Gallup, but he gets the best role in the NFL with Gallup in the lineup and becoming the WR3 in this offense. We have seen Lamb crush with Gallup in the game in a limited sample size this season, but why exactly is that?
Lamb is being treated like Michael Thomas or Devante Adams in this version of the offense when it comes to his alignment, where he gets three-WR snaps in the slot, which is almost always the best for a stud WR. Still, he transitions to the outside in 2-WR snaps, meaning that he is constantly on the field and constantly moving into the ideal spot on the field for WR targets. I expect Lamb to smash for the rest of the season.
Cleveland Browns: Donovan Peoples-Jones
The Prop: Donovan Peoples-Jones Receptions vs. Detroit Lions
The Odds: Over 2.5 (-115)/Under 2.5 (-115)
I am a big fan of the talent from Donovan Peoples-Jones, and this is a great spot to have a breakout game against a horrible Lions defense on Sunday afternoon. DPJ saw five targets last week and his talent, while limited at times, is immense, and I want to be along for the ride of him becoming a bigger part of this offense. His receiving yards prop is 42.5, which tells you just how explosive he can be downfield, but I think he should also become a larger part of the intermediate game.
Whether or not Nick Chubb returns to the lineup, DPJ is one of the best NFL Player Props for Week 11
