The New England Patriots found a spark when Bailey Zappe stepped in for their injured starting quarterback Mac Jones during their 27-24 loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 4. Now, with Zappe going back to the bench with Jones healthy, they hope to keep the same inspired play going when they host the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football from Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass.

After surprising the NFL with a 2-1 start, the Bears have dropped three straight games, all of which were single possession games for Chicago to start the 4th quarter. Meanwhile, after New England began the season 1-3, they're now back at .500 following two straight wins.

There's plenty of betting options on the board for tonight, including our BetSided team's favorite spread bets, props, anytime touchdown plays and more. So why not combine some of our best plays into one single game parlay for a shot at a big payday?

Here's what we've cooked up:

Best Monday Night Football Same Game Parlay (Bears vs. Patriots)

  • Rhamondre Stevenson Anytime Touchdown Scorer
  • Khalil Herbert OVER 32.5 Rushing Yards
  • Jakobi Meyers OVER 40.5 Receiving Yards
  • OVER 33.5 (alternate total)

Rhamondre Stevenson Anytime Touchdown

The Patriots have Damien Harris returning into the mix, but even Bill Belichick is smart enough to recognize that someone running the ball as effectively as Stevenson should not be taken out of the ballgame when they're close to scoring.

Over the last two weeks, Stevenson has doubled his red-zone touches for New England, and had eight total touches in the red zone last week vs. the Browns with a few receptions.

He is my top candidate to score a touchdown against a Bears rushing defense that ranks fifth-worst in the NFL via Football Outsiders Run DVOA Defense metrics.

Khalil Herbert OVER 32.5 Rushing Yards

I also wrote up Herbert to find the end zone as a value play against this Patriots team that actually ranks just ahead of the Bears in Run DVOA Defense metrics at Football Outsiders (26th).

With David Montgomery back as the primary ball carrier, Herbert's touches have dropped, but he's still making the most of his opportunity. Despite half of Montgomery's touches last week, Herbert ran for 75 yards on just seven rushes in a game where Chicago could not maximize their opportunities in the red zone.

Jakobi Meyers OVER 40.5 Receiving Yards

Meyers is by far and away the most targeted Patriots receiver this season, and gets a plus-matchup vs. Bears slot corner (and rookie draft pick) Kyler Gordon tonight.

Despite missing two games this year, Meyers remains an elite level option for New England vs. a mediocre Bears' pass defense outside of Jaylon Johnson. He's also cleared this prop number by more than 15 yards in every game this year.

OVER 33.5 (alternate total)

Primetime unders have a chance to go 15-7 through the first seven weeks of the NFL season, and with the number hovering around 40.5, there's not a lot to feel good about for both teams offensively.

However, both teams run the ball very effectively, and neither defense has done much to stop it, which could lead to a sneakier amount of points in New England than most might expect.

Even if the Bears are down significantly, the Patriots can still run the ball and churn the clock, but if Chicago can't stop the run, the points should continue to come. That's why I've moved the total down past key numbers of 37 and 34 in the process.

The Bears can't keep Justin Fields protected, and Mac Jones is returning from injury. Why put both of these offenses in spots that could further harm their future quarterbacks?
