Mayfield at 211.5 isn't a big number, but -111 on the under is roughly 52.6 percent implied, and a defense that shuts down third downs ends drives before the yards stack up. Trailing teams do throw late, so this isn't free money. I still like the price. Under.

The Sharp Desk: Week 9 picks
Bucky Irving under 65.5 rushing yards at -115 implies about 53.5%, roughly a coin flip after removing the margin. A 3-5 road underdog priced near 29% to win is more likely to be trailing late and throwing, which trims rushing volume, so I have the under near 55%. It is a thin gap built on game script rather than any player-level data, so my confidence is modest.
Watch the backfield touches. Ben Johnson was asked whether Kyle Monangai is playing, and while his status is only reported, any limit on him funnels more carries to D'Andre Swift. A 6-2 team protecting a lead at home leans on the run in the second half, and at -111 a 62.5 line is a fair price if Swift is carrying the bigger share of the load.
Lou wants Baker Mayfield under 211.5, and the whole room has bought the story that Chicago's defense shuts everything down. If the Bucs are trailing a 6-2 home favourite in primetime, Mayfield is throwing, and a modest 211.5 line at even money is cheap exposure to that game script. The crowd's scared of the Bears defense; I'm just pricing the scoreboard.
