Best Player Prop Bets for Ravens-Bears

The Ravens welcome the Bears to Baltimore as they come off the bye desperately looking for a win to give themselves some positive momentum in an effort to turn their season around. Lamar Jackson practiced fully on Friday, giving him the inside track to suit up Sunday against a Bears team entering this game winners of four straight. The Ravens are relying on Lamar to be the spark this team needs, and if he comes into Sunday and provides that, there is money to be won as there are some favorable lines being offered.

Here are the props I’ll be taking in the Ravens must win Week 8 matchup vs. the Bears.

Derrick Henry Over 18.5 Rushing Attempts (+100 Bet365)

The Ravens should come into this game and look to feed their star running back as Lamar Jackson settles in after missing the last two games. The Ravens gave a tough Rams defense a heavy dose of Derrick Henry last time out with The King handling a season high 24 carries. Henry was extremely efficient with those carries, racking up 122 rushing yards on 5.1 yards per carry; a welcome sight for Ravens fans after a few down weeks. In an effort to be cautious around the health of Jackson, I expect the Ravens to go right back to the run game early and often Sunday vs. the Bears.

Derrick Henry Over 90.5 Rushing Yards (-110 Bet365)

Henry (and the rest of Baltimore) will be extremely happy to see #8 alongside him in the backfield this week. Per NFL pro, he has produced 5.9 yards per carry and 2.3 yards before contact per carry with Jackson in the backfield, as opposed to 3.9 yards per carry and 0.4 yards before contact without Lamar. If the Ravens do indeed feed Derrick Henry the way they should, 90.5 yards should be a very gettable number for a running back who traditionally heats up as the season rolls along.

Isaiah Likely Over 21.5 Receiving Yards (-110 Bet365)

Isaiah Likely’s season has yet to get going, and we can put the majority of the blame on that on the absence of Jackson. We alluded to the heavy workload we expect Henry to get above, and if he gets going, that will open up a play-action game for the Ravens that has been extremely efficient with Jackson behind center. Per NFL Pro, Lamar has completed a league-high 91.7% of his pass attempts featuring play action while averaging 14.8 yards per attempt. Conversely, the Bears have averaged a league high 80.8% completion percentage against play-action passes this season. That is a matchup Todd Monken needs to utilize, and if he does, Isaiah Likely should be a beneficiary of that. 21.5 receiving yards is a line that will only get higher for a player of Likely’s caliber who is a focal point of this offense when healthy.

Rashod Bateman Over 24.5 Receiving Yards (-110 Bet365)

Rashod Bateman has yet to show the explosiveness he carried with him down the stretch of last season. There were, however, some positive signs moving forward for Bateman before Lamar Jackson went down and took the whole offense with him. In Lamar’s last full game, Bateman had 5 catches on 7 targets for 71 yards vs the Lions. Similar to the logic we used for Likely, 24.5 yards is an extremely low mark for a player we expect to be capable of exceeding in every game.

D’Andre Swift Over 50.5 Rushing Yards (-110 Bet365)

Roquan Smith is back, which should provide a boost to a Ravens run defense that hasn’t been able to find its footing in the absence of Nnamdi Madubuike. They did, however, head into the bye with some positive momentum in that department, limiting Kyren Williams to only 50 yards on 3.8 yards per carry. The Bears running game has been trending upwards, as D’Andre Swift is coming into this week off back-to-back 100-yard rushing games on 7.1 yards per carry. Swift has earned himself enough touches moving forward to be able to cover line on Sunday.
