Justin Fields Over 32.5 pass attempts (-115)

"The Bears probably don't want Fields throwing the ball this much, but I don't think they have a choice. The Buccaneers have seen more pass attempts against them than any other defense as opponents try to keep up with Tom Brady and avoid Tampa's excellent rush defense, and that's led to an average of about 42 pass attempts per game from Buccaneers opponents. Fields did see a leap in pass attempts to 27 last week against Aaron Rodgers in a game that was closer than this one will probably be, and that workload could continue to increase as he gets more comfortable running the offense."

Darnell Mooney Over 4.5 receptions (+105)

"Mooney has been the preferred option to Allen Robinson over the last three games, seeing 20 targets to Robinson's 15 and hitting five catches twice in that span while Robinson has been capped at four. With the latter questionable for this week but expected to play, Mooney could be leaned on even more to pick up first downs, and he has a great matchup against a depleted secondary. Since I'm projecting Fields to see a passing workload higher than he ever has, it makes sense to correlate a bigger day than expected from his favorite target."

Mike Evans Anytime TD (+100) and Two or more TDs (+575)

"Evans has had two multi-touchdown games this year, and I like his chances to get a third in this matchup. Tom Brady will be missing two players (Rob Gronkowski, Antonio Brown) who have caught eight of his 17 touchdowns this year, and with his TD prop number set at 2.5, clearly the oddsmakers aren't expecting him to just hand off all day and take an easy win as a double-digit favorite. Only six teams have surrendered more receiving TDs to WRs than the Bears this season, and if Tampa Bay is going to win by double digits as the market expects, we could be in for a rerun of Week 1 where Matthew Stafford threw three touchdowns to wide receivers against the Bears. Count on Evans hauling in at least one score but don't be afraid to sprinkle a little on another multi-TD game for the talented wideout."
