NFL Week 3 Monday Night Football Best SGP Picks —Eagles At Bears

Find out why Case Keenum's over 0.5 interceptions and receiving overs for DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks are a compelling three-leg SGP for Monday Night Football.

NFL Week 3 Monday Night Football Best SGP Picks —Eagles At Bears

The Chicago Bears are set to host the Philadelphia Eagles in Monday Night Football for Week 3 of the NFL season. Unfortunately, the Bears are without their starting quarterback, Caleb Williams, and are 3.5-point underdogs. Case Keenum will take over as the Bears' starting QB for the game, with Tyson Bagent as a backup option.

The slight spread in the game could bode well for the Eagles' receiving involvement and betting expectations. Philadelphia's top wide receivers, DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks, are the other two legs in a three-leg same-game parlay (SGP) for this matchup.

In the SGP, Case Keenum is listed Over 0.5 Interceptions at -133 odds. DeVonta Smith is listed Over 71.5 Receiving Yards at -112 odds, and Dontayvion Wicks is listed Over 40.5 Receiving Yards at -114 odds. Current odds at DraftKings Sportsbook favor Keenum at +490.

Case Keenum, a 38-year-old veteran, has had a rocky start to his career. He threw 7.5% turnover-worthy passes in 2023, which is the highest among 57 quarterbacks with at least 50 dropbacks that season. However, he has shown potential to bounce back, as he racked up 170 receiving yards in Week 2 after struggling in Week 1.

On the other side, Philadelphia's receivers are expected to gun for the Chicago Bears' secondary. DeVonta Smith has shown flashes of brilliance this season, with 170 receiving yards so far. He has performed exceptionally well against man coverage and single-high coverage since 2024, with impressive statistics in those situations. Similarly, Dontayvion Wicks has been on fire with the Eagles, accumulating 147 receiving yards and 2.72 yards per route run (Y/RR) this year.
