Prop bet #1: Jordan Love Over 19.5 pass completions

-125 at FanDuel

The Chicago Bears have been vulnerable through the air, ranking 24th in pass defensive DVOA while allowing the eighth-highest completion percentage and ninth-highest dropback success rate.

As a result, I expect Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love to spread the ball around and complete 20+ passes with his full receiving corps back in action.

Love will have plenty of time to throw, as Chicago ranks 24th in pass rush win rate and 25th in PFF pass rush grade, generating pressure on the 11th-lowest percentage of dropbacks despite blitzing at the 11th-highest rate.

Prop bet #2: Jayden Reed Over 35.5 receiving yards

-114 at FanDuel

With Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed expected to play in Week 18 and carrying no injury designation, I anticipate he’ll be fully healthy and heavily involved on Saturday night.

Reed averaged 40.5 receiving yards per game from Weeks 14-17 and has caught 19 of 22 targets this season.

While Reed's yards after catch per reception has dropped to 4.5 this season, down from 7.1 in 2025, his aDOT remained steady at 8.3 this year compared to 8.6 last year.

Positive regression is on the horizon for the Michigan State man.

Prop bet #3: DJ Moore Over 26.5 receiving yards

-114 at FanDuel

Bears wide receiver DJ Moore has recorded 38+ receiving yards in 10 of 18 games this season, including a season-high 97 yards on five receptions against the Packers in Week 16.

He was a limited participant in Tuesday’s practice with a knee injury, but I expect the go-to wideout to be on the field and heavily involved on Saturday.

Moore led the Bears in snap percentage and ranked second in targets, receptions, and receiving yards. Simply put, this total is too low.

Neil Parker is, first and foremost, a sports fan. A huge supporter of the Cowboys, Cubs, and Maple Leafs, he has managed to parlay his passion into writing gigs at some of the top websites in the industry.

Neil takes a numbers-based approach to his handicapping and complements his in-depth statistical analysis with a keen eye on the markets to provide the best available odds. He loves to lean on his rolodex of idioms to offset his inner nerd. When it comes to wagering, he throws down on anything that catches his eye at bet365, Betway and BetVictor. He also keeps a close eye on CoolBet because the polar bear brand often has outlier NHL and NFL moneyline prices.

Neil graduated with honors from St. Thomas University in 2007 before completing his BEd at Acadia University in 2010. After teaching a myriad of courses and subjects, he found a groove delivering fun lessons to exceptional learners in non-traditional classroom environments. If his decade-plus teaching run taught him anything about sports betting, it’s to stay the course and use the summer – or offseason – to refresh and prepare to be better in the year to come.
