The Minnesota Vikings trek to Soldier Field to face the Chicago Bears in the Week 1 capper on Monday Night Football.
My same-game parlay for MNF targets several top receiving options between both teams, including Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson.
Check out my MNF SGP and Vikings vs. Bears predictions for Monday, September 8.
Our best Vikings vs Bears SGP for Week 1
Both J.J. McCarthy and Caleb Williams can rack up the yards through the air on Monday night, and Justin Jefferson will be even more of the Minnesota Vikings' focal point with no Jordan Addison.
T.J. Hockenson will also be McCarthy's safety net in his first start, and for a team that passes a lot in the red zone, the tight end could easily be his preferred target.
I know there is no McCarthy Over 1.5 pass TDs in this SGP, which seems like the obvious play, but that market seems to water down the odds. If I added the McCarthy Over 1.5 TDs instead of Hockenson, this SGP would only be +440, as opposed to +825.
But the Vikings aren't the only team with worthwhile receivers. DJ Moore was Williams' favorite option in 2024, leading the Chicago Bears in receiving yards and targets.
His best game of the season also came against the Vikings at Soldier Field, where he hauled in seven receptions for 106 yards.
