Best bet: Swift over 77.5 rushing\/receiving yards (-112)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98273<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three straight wins was just what Swift and the Bears needed, and now we’ll see if they can take their show on the road. I’m betting they can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chicago has scored 95 points over its past three matchups, and Swift was a central figure in all of that offensive production. He finished with 115-plus scrimmage yards and a touchdown in each of those games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swift has averaged a career-low yards per rush (3.6), but he’s offsetting that with respectable numbers in the receiving game. He has 20-plus receiving yards in five consecutive weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wouldn’t quite categorize Swift as a bell-cow running back, but he’s steadily in the RB1 role. Swift has seen more than 60.0% of snaps in five of six games, per Football Guys, and his 110 touches are more than three times that of any other Chicago receiver or tailback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As long as the volume remains high \u2014 and there’s no reason to assume otherwise \u2014 Swift’s yardage floor should be high, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washington is a team that Swift should be able to churn yards against. The Commanders’ defence ranks 25th in EPA per play, according to RBSDM.com, and 27th in yards per rush (4.7).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key stat<\/strong>: Swift has 15-plus touches in five consecutive games and has averaged 97.6 scrimmage yards per game in that span.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cooper over 53.5 receiving yards (-117):<\/strong> Cooper only played 19 offensive snaps in his Buffalo debut last week, but he turned that into a tidy four catches (five targets) for 66 yards and a score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98267<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’ll definitely be on the field more often on Sunday, which makes this yardage line look like a steal to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooper was in shackles in Cleveland. He had 53 targets in six games, but only 34 were catchable, according to Rotowire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 2018-23, Cooper averaged 70.0 yards per game and made the Pro Bowl three times. Now that he’s playing alongside a talented quarterback like Josh Allen, I don’t expect Cooper’s line to be this low very often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Williams over 63.5 rushing yards (-114):<\/strong> In Week 7, Williams looked like a guy reclaiming his backfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98266<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fourth-year RB scampered for a season-high 88 yards in a road matchup against the New Orleans Saints. That’s particularly impressive given that Denver’s other three running backs saw the field and Bo Nix called his own number 10 times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Up next is the dreadful Carolina Panthers, who’ve allowed the most rushing yards per game to their opponents (162.1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Williams has rushed for 5.1 yards per carry over his past four games and should enter Sunday’s matchup with plenty of confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
