Good Afternoon!

Week 7 opens at Soldier Field with Chicago favored and the total up around 50. Caleb Williams went 30-for-36 on his return last Sunday without throwing an incompletion until his 13th pass, which is most of why Mark wants a Bears pass catcher to open the scoring. Howard is on the same offense and the opposite side of the ledger, fading the tight end against a Patriots defense that has smothered the position all year.

Mark Lammey
NFL FIRST TD PICK
|
Luther Burden (CHI)
First TD Scorer (+1200)
We cashed our first TD scorer for Monday Night Football with George Kittle, and we're going with another pass catcher for the home team. Caleb Williams looked awesome in his return from injury, not throwing an incompletion until his 13th pass and ended 30-for-36. A higher total of around 50 for this game plus the Bears being favored and Burden catching all eight targets for 95 yards last Sunday has us on the WR.

Howard Bender
NFL RECEIVING PROP
|
Colston Loveland (CHI)
Under 45.5 Receiving Yards
Only one tight end has had more than 33 receiving yards in any game against the Patriots this season. That was Brock Bowers, but he ran 87% of his routes either out wide or from the slot, as a receiver not as a tight end. Safety Kevin Byard has locked down opposing tight ends all season long. Take the under and run.

Mark's anytime TD board is above with the full game breakdown beside it, and the Week 7 start/sit and matchups chart are there for anyone already building toward Sunday. Caleb Williams is back and Chicago are running it better than anyone in the league, which is how the total got to 50. Both exclusives come out of that same Bears passing game pointing different ways: Mark wants Luther Burden to open the scoring at +1200, while Howard has Colston Loveland under 45.5 against a Patriots side that has held every tight end but one under 33 yards. The NBA best bets close things out. Good luck tonight.
