Bears vs 49ers Player Prop #1: D’Andre Swift Over 57.5 Rushing Yards

For my first prop, I’m going with the Chicago Bears’ bread and butter, and that’s running the football. The squad ranks third in the league (151.7 YPG), and D’Andre Swift has been a keg cog in their two-headed monster with Kyle Monangai.

Swift has rushed for at least 58 yards in four straight affairs, and eight of his last ten contests. On five of those occasions, he reached the 90 yard plateau. He faces a tough test in San Fran, who is eighth best in limiting the run, though they’ve allowed ten more yards in the last three games than their season average (102.9 YPG).

• D’Andre Swift Over 57.5 Rushing Yards (-113 at DraftKings)

CHI vs SF Prop Pick #2: Luther Burden III Over 3.5 Receptions

For my next prop I’m sticking with Chicago’s offense, but this time going with rookie wideout Luther Burden III snagging four or more receptions. That’s something he’s been able to accomplish in three straight outings.

Burden returns this week after missing last week’s grudge match against Green Bay. He’s been targeted 19 times in his last three games, snagging 14 passes. The Bears will continue to be without WR Rome Odunze, which allows more target share for Burden. SF has surrendered 229.3 passing yards per contest, which is ninth worst in the NFL, helping Burden in this scintillating clash.

John Hyslop has you covered for a Bears vs 49ers same-game parlay that features their QB Caleb Williams tossing for solid yardage, which dovetails with my pick of Burden grabbing four or more footballs.

• Luther Burden III Over 3.5 Receptions (-148 at DraftKings)

Bears vs 49ers Touchdown Scorer Props

Moving over to the Bears vs 49ers touchdown scorer props, Christian McCaffrey has the shortest odds to record a TD at -250. The player most likely to find the end zone for Chicago is D’Andre Swift at +130.

Bears vs 49ers Prop Pick #3: Christian McCaffrey First Touchdown Scorer

For a touchdown scorer prop, I have my sights set on the chalk selection to record a TD in Christian McCaffrey, but considering his -250 anytime touchdown scorer odds aren’t all that appealing, I’m going with first on the board at +400.

San Fran’s offense has been firing on all cylinders, and they’ve put a touchdown in the first frame in five straight duels, including McCaffrey, who has found pay dirt first in a pair of instances.

The Bears have been a bit slower to light up the scoreboard, failing to punch it in through two quarters on two of their last three occasions. I like McCaffrey to get it done first, particularly with teammate George Kittle (ankle) all but likely to miss out on this battle.

As always, make sure you scan our NFL betting apps to find the best odds.
