Denver Broncos Week 14 prop bet predictions
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 9:15 a.m. ET.
QB Drew Lock OVER 236.5 passing yards (-105)
Lock is coming off a tough Week 13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs where he threw for only 151 yards and 2 interceptions. Denver tried to use the running game to keep Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes off the field and it nearly worked.
This week, look for Denver to air it out more and for Lock to go over 236.5 yards. In the five games before Week 13, Lock was averaging 268.4 passing yards per game. Don’t be surprised if we see that version of Lock on Sunday.
WR Jerry Jeudy OVER 41.5 receiving yards (-115)
Through 12 games, Jeudy has 594 yards. Over the last two weeks, he has caught just one pass for five yards. Given his frustrations in the offense, don’t be surprised if Denver forces him the ball a ton against a pretty weak secondary.

Lock OVER 1.5 passing touchdowns (+115)
Can Lock have a big passing game on Sunday? We think so as we picked him to go over 236.5 passing yards. Can he throw multiple passing touchdowns? Against this Carolina defense, that might not be all that hard. At +115, those odds are pretty good for a secondary with so much youth.
RB Melvin Gordon OVER 71.5 total yards (-105)
Gordon totaled 142 yards on 16 touches against the Chiefs and is coming off his best game of the season. It’s clear the Broncos believe he is their lead back and would be wise to continue to use him more in the run game. The projection of 71.5 total yards might be tough to clear, but his home-run speed makes this a reasonable line. Take the Over, hoping Gordon sees close to 20 touches.
Jeudy to score 2 or more touchdowns (+1400)
Jeudy has just two touchdowns on the season. The quarterback play has been inconsistent and that has led to up-and-down production for the rookie receiver. This sets up as a huge game for Jeudy and it wouldn’t be a surprise if he got into the end zone multiple times in this game. At 14-1 odds, these are too good to pass up.
