Bears vs. Vikings props, odds, NFL bets, AI predictions, MNF picks: Justin Fields over 51.5 rushing yards

The Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears will meet on Monday Night Football to close out a supersized Week 12 NFL schedule. The Vikings enter this NFC North battle ranked 28th in rushing yards per game (93.8). Vikings running back Alexander Mattison is averaging just 3.7 yards per carry and has yet to record a rushing touchdown this season, but should you consider including him in Monday Night Football NFL player props? Mattison’s over-under for rushing yards is only 42.5 in the latest NFL prop bets.

Mattison is coming off an effective performance in Minnesota’s loss against the Lions, rushing 18 times for 81 yards. However, Chicago’s defense is giving up just 79.5 rushing yards per game this season, the second-fewest in the league. Before locking in any NFL props for Monday Night Football in Week 12 or entering selections on sites like PrizePicks, you need to see the Bears vs. Vikings NFL prop predictions from the SportsLine AI PickBot.

Built using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques by SportsLine’s Data Science team, AI Predictions and AI Ratings are generated for each player prop. The AI predictions are determined by statistically learning from each player’s historical data then quantitatively evaluating the strength of the opponents defense by assigning a numeric value out of 100 called a matchup score. 

Once a prediction is formulated, the AI rating is generated using the prediction, the matchup score, and the odds of the market. For example, you could see a 5-star rating on an over bet if a player is facing a poor defense, their prediction differs from the line and there are favorable odds.

In addition, SportsLine AI is the first fully automated predictive model at SportsLine. It continuously refreshes on the most recent available data and can help you spot the biggest discrepancies in the lines.

Top NFL player prop bets for Bears vs. Vikings

After analyzing Bears vs. Vikings and examining the dozens of NFL player props, the AI PickBot says Bears quarterback Justin Fields goes over 51.5 rushing yards. Fields looked sharp in his return to the lineup after missing four games due to a thumb injury. Chicago’s dual-threat quarterback completed 16-of-23 passes for 169 yards and a touchdown. He was even more effective with his legs, finishing with 104 rushing yards on 18 carries.

Fields has now rushed for more than 200 yards in his last three games and he’s recorded at least 11 carries in three of his last five contests. His speed, vision, and agility are a big reason why Chicago’s signal caller is averaging 5.2 yards per carry.

The Bears welcomed back Khalil Herbert to the backfield last Sunday at Detroit, but now D’Onta Foreman is dealing with an injury that could keep him sidelined on Monday Night Football. That means Fields will likely be used often in the run game, a key reason why the model is projecting Fields to record 86.5 rushing yards, safely placing him above the current prop total of 51.5. See more NFL props here.
