Williams 60+ rushing yards<\/strong><\/strong> <strong>(-121):<\/strong> Even with NFL MVP candidate Matthew Stafford under centre, I think this is a good time for the Rams to pound the rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The weather in Chicago on Sunday is expected to include wind gusts in the range of 40-50 km\/hour, which The Weather Network identifies as &#8220;strong enough to break umbrellas and move large tree branches.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blake Corum is siphoning quite a few touches from Williams these days, but the floor is significantly higher for Williams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider this: Williams is averaging 15.1 carries, accruing at least 12 carries in every game this season; Corum, meanwhile, has never had more than 14 carries in any game (and he only hit that mark once).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Bet on the NFL divisional round<\/a>!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Williams has 60+ rushing yards in 14 of 18 games this year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In four career playoff games, he has 61 carries for 300 yards (75.0 yards\/game).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bears allow the sixth-highest rushing success rate in the NFL (44.0%), according to RBSDM.com.

For context, Josh Allen averaged 197.1 air yards during the regular season.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Air yards don&#8217;t necessarily convert to realized yardage, but they do demonstrate how a quarterback creates opportunities. And a few chunk plays would go a long way to helping Williams hit this milestone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Go to full NFL player prop markets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aforementioned wind gusts won&#8217;t make it easy for Williams to air it out, but maybe he won&#8217;t need to. Williams is consistently throwing at a high volume, averaging 35.9 pass attempts over his past 12 games (only Bo Nix averaged more over the full season).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far this year, Williams has 200+ passing yards in 14 of 18 games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"us_only\"><a href=\"cacheembed:122861\">Embed: #122861<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SGP prediction: NFL ATS pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong><strong>Bears +7.5<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> (-215):<\/strong> It&#8217;s impossible to decipher what the exact clutch vs. luck breakdown is for this Chicago team.
