Cohen can Score Regardless of Game-Script

Despite conventional wisdom suggesting that Tarik Cohen might thrive when the Bears are expected to be behind, he's been more effective when Vegas favors Chicago.

His rushing volume takes a slight hit, but he makes up for it with efficiency in the passing game. Cohen averages 20.9 more receiving yards (13.1 yards from scrimmage after the rushing decrease) and 0.4 more receptions when the Bears are favorites.

Cohen has also historically scored two more fantasy points as a favorite. He isn't the typical back that runs out the clock with a positive game script, but his game-breaking speed gives him upside no matter the score.
