Mooney trends:
Mooney has seen an increase in both his receptions and targets since the opening two weeks, but still only has one game over 3.5 receptions.
Mooney has gone over 48.5 receiving yards just once, but it did come last week.
Through four games, Mooney has yet to score a touchdown.
Boosts available:
Caesars is running a boost where if Mooney and Adam Thielen each record a reception over 24.5 yards, you win at a +420 boost.
Illinois bettors can play our boosted parlay for Bears at Vikings in NFL Week 5
Mooney has become more involved as of late, catching four passes for 94 yards in last week’s 20-12 loss to the New York Giants. He has yet to score a touchdown, but I could see him getting behind the Vikings secondary for a big play on Sunday
Pick: Darnell Mooney to score a TD (+225)
HOME TEAM in CAPS
Teaser, Green Bay -2 over NY Giants (in London) and MINNESOTA -1 over Chicago
WHEN: Green Bay-NY Giants at 8:30 a.m.; Minnesota-Chicago at noon. THE BET: $36 to win $30.
Teaser explanation: At most books, a bettor can parlay two teams in a “teaser” and get 6 points of cushion for each bet. However, it costs -120 to play and – like a parlay – both legs must hit to cash the ticket.
Last week, we won our big teaser and a few of those we didn’t list in this column, mostly because we involved Tennessee in all of them, and they not only covered the teaser, but covered their spread by winning outright at Indianapolis.
In Week 5, I am looking to put Green Bay in several teaser plays. I don’t quite understand why they are only an eight-point favorite against a Giants team that might not only be a little overrated in power points, but is likely down to their third-string quarterback, Davis Webb, as Daniel Jones (ankle) and Tyrod Taylor (concussion protocol) almost surely will be missing in London.
The best combo with the Packers seems to be the Vikings, who we would have liked at -7 had they not had just been coming from London following an emotional finish with the Saints. That being said, getting them in a teaser means they simply have to win, and against this incredibly limited offense for the Bears, we’ll go that route.
SCORE PREDICTION: Packers (-8) 29, Giants 19. (Over 41.)
Spencer Urqhart likes a prop from Bears-Vikings:
Rushing top play: Dalvin Cook OVER 77.5 yards (-127) vs. Bears
This one feels like a no-brainer considering the Bears are currently the worst run defense in the NFL, so Cook should easily go over as long as his shoulder holds up.
