Denver Broncos Week 10 prop bet predictions
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 8:30 a.m. ET.
Broncos OVER 20.5 points (-162)
We start with one of the best values on this game’s board as Denver’s implied team total in the contest is 23.5 points.
Overall, the Broncos rank only 27th in the league in scoring but are still averaging 21.8 points per contest, and have put up 31 and 27 points in the last two weeks.
The Raiders defense, meanwhile, ranks 24th with an average of 28.6 points allowed per contest, and they’ve permitted at least 24 in seven of eight games this season. The only exception was the six points they allowed in the nasty weather conditions in Cleveland in Week 8.
No such worries inside here in Vegas, so go big on the Over, and consider getting down on the Broncos Over 23.5 points at a more favorable -106 as well.
Phillip Lindsay OVER 37.5 rushing yards (-118)
The explosive, hard-running Lindsay has played only four full games this season and rushed for at least 79 in three of them, with the only exception being the 23 yards on eight carries a week ago in Atlanta.
Lindsay also ranks sixth among qualified running backs with an average of 5.85 yards per carry, and he’s averaging 10.6 rushes per outing.
Las Vegas’ mediocre run defense, allowing 118.5 yards per game (16th) and 4.5 yards per carry (20th), is far from formidable, and in four career contests against the Raiders, Lindsay has posted rushing totals of 107, 46, 43 and 53 yards, averaging 4.7 per attempt.

Jerry Jeudy OVER 58.5 receiving yards (-110)
The rookie first-rounder has finished with 55 or more receiving yards in six of eight games this season.
In his last two outings, he has hit career highs with 73 and 125 yards, catching 11 of 24 targets as he’s led all league wideouts in air yards during that span.
For the season, Jeudy leads the Broncos in targets with 61 — 15 more than anyone else — and is averaging 16.1 yards per reception, which ranks fifth among NFL wideouts with at least 30 catches.
Again, the Raiders defense doesn’t scare anyone in surrendering the 14th-most yards (170.3) on average to opposing wide receivers.
Ride the hot hands with Jeudy and take the over.
Broncos and Raiders OVER 3.5 made field goals combined (-112)
The Denver (54.5%) and Las Vegas (58.6%) offenses both rank in the bottom third in red-zone touchdown percentage, setting the table for an ample number of field-goal attempts.
And sure enough, PKs Brandon McManus and Daniel Carlson are averaging at least two made field goals per game to rank among the league’s top 10, and both are connecting at a 90% clip.
Best long shot: Noah Fant to score Broncos’ first TD (+650)
Fant is second on the team in targets (46) and tops in receptions (32). He also is getting healthier, and his status as the Broncos’ best tight end receiving threat has been solidified with last Sunday’s season-ending knee injury suffered by rookie Albert Okwuegbunam.
Fant caught a TD pass in each of his first two games but hasn’t scored in five contests since, meaning he’s certainly due as a reasonable long-shot play here.
