Steelers vs. Bears Player Props: Best Bets & TD Picks for NFL Week 12

My Steelers vs. Bears player props envision the slow build for rookie Luther Burden III’s opportunities to continue, manifesting in a strong performance in a plus-matchup. Wide receivers also thrive against Chicago, which could mean a chance for DK Metcalf to break out of his scoring slump.

The action for Steelers vs. Bears kicks off from Soldier Field in Chicago, Sunday at 1 p.m. ET (CBS). The Bears are 2.5-point betting favorites as part of our NFL Week 12 predictions.

💰 Best Steelers vs. Bears player props

⬆️ Luther Burden III player prop: Over 33.5 receiving yards (-110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Steelers allow the most passing yards per game in the NFL (261.7 yards per game), with 71% of those yards being distributed to the wide receiver position (186.0 per game, also most in the NFL). This feels like a matchup where Luther Burden could shine, in conjunction with the recent uptick for his role.

Burden has exceeded a 40% snap share in consecutive weeks, the first two times of the season in which that has happened for the talented rookie. He logged three receptions in both games; with a 13.1 yards per reception average on the campaign, similar volume on Sunday should get LB3 up and over this line.

BetMGM lists Burden's receiving line at 33.5 yards with -110 odds on Over. The implied probability at those odds is 52.38% and a winning $10 wager on this prop would profit $9.09.

⬆️Darnell Washington player prop: Over 2.5 receptions (+126) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Darnell Washington has been a steady drumbeat as a target for Aaron Rodgers for the majority of the season. After getting held without a catch through his first three games of the year, Washington has secured three or more receptions in five of the past seven games.

The Bears are a particularly favorable matchup for tight end receptions, allowing 64 receptions to the tight end position on the season. The 6.4 receptions per game permitted by Chicago to opposing tight ends is tied for the fourth-most in the NFL.

The +126 odds on Over 2.5 receptions from DraftKings equate to an implied probability of 44.25%. A winning $10 wager on this prop would profit $12.60.

6️⃣ Best Steelers vs. Bears touchdown scorer bet

🔥 DK Metcalf TD pick: anytime TD scorer (+170) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

DK Metcalf is in the midst of a three-game TD dry spell, but overall, he's been a solid touchdown producer on the year, scoring five times in 10 games played (50%).

Though Aaron Rodgers is dealing with a wrist injury, it's difficult to imagine the longtime ceremonial owner of the Bears not suiting up to face Chicago.

The Bears have permitted 14 receiving touchdowns to wide receivers this season, second-most of all NFL teams. DraftKings lists Metcalf's anytime TD scorer odds at +170. The implied probability at those odds is 37.04%. A winning $10 wager on this prop would profit $17.00.
