Cowboys at Ravens prop bet predictions

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 10:15 a.m. ET.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott UNDER 58.5 rushing yards (-112)

This season has been quite the struggle for Elliott. His rushing numbers have dropped significantly as well as his efficiency. It’s not going to get any easier this week without All-Pro G Zack Martin and against one of the league’s best rush defenses.

Elliott is averaging just 57.2 rushing yards over the last six games. Take the Under on rushing yards for Elliott in Week 13 as Baltimore should have no problem slowing down this run game.

Cowboys QB Andy Dalton OVER 1.5 touchdown passes (+155)

Dalton has been competent for the Cowboys this season despite playing in less-than-ideal circumstances. This is a tough matchup for the former Cincinnati Bengals signal-caller considering the opposing secondary he will face.

Still, there is a great chance he throws 40-50 passes in this game and winds up with a few passing touchdowns. Bet the Over on touchdown passes for Dalton in Week 13.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson OVER 50.5 rushing yards (-112)

The Cowboys have really struggled to stop the run over the past few months and that isn’t going to get any easier against the Ravens in Week 13. With Jackson back after missing last week due to COVID-19, look for him to dominate on the ground and rip off several long runs.

He should be considered a lock to rush for more than 50 yards in this contest.

Ravens WR Dez Bryant to score a touchdown (+350)

Bryant hasn’t scored a touchdown since the 2017 season, but this might just be his best chance. Playing against his former team in primetime, you know the Ravens are going to give Bryant a few looks in the red zone. Look for the former All-Pro receiver to convert at least once Tuesday night.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson + Cowboys QB Andy Dalton to throw 2+ passing touchdowns (+450)

If you are looking for a fun long-shot bet to keep your interest throughout the game, consider betting on Dalton and Jackson to each throw two touchdowns. While this game is unlikely to be a back-and-forth shootout, there certainly is some garbage time potential.

If the Cowboys are forced to throw 40-50 times, it’s not hard to envision Dalton throwing a few touchdowns.

NFL Prop Bets Payday: 5 Pittsburgh Steelers prop predictions for Week 13

Highlighting five Pittsburgh Steelers prop bets to make for their Week 13 home game with the Washington Football Team.

The Pittsburgh Steelers (11-0) will host the Washington Football Team (4-7) Monday of Week 13 for a 5 p.m. ET kickoff. Below, we give you five player/team prop bets to consider from the BetMGM game menu.

Pittsburgh Steelers Week 13 prop bet predictions

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 8 a.m. ET.

Steelers OVER 24.5 points (-115)

Pittsburgh’s offense struggled against the Baltimore Ravens last week and you would assume Washington’s defensive line could give them problems this week. Washington just doesn’t have the defensive backs to slow down the Steelers weapons on offense. Look for the defense to score or force a few turnovers in this game as well, allowing the over on points scored to hit in Washington.

Washington UNDER 13.5 points (+190)

While this piece focuses on Pittsburgh-specific prop bets, this one can fall into that category, as well. The Steelers currently have the No. 1 scoring defense in the NFL, allowing just over 17 points per game. They will face a Washington offense on Monday night that ranks 24th in scoring this season.

Washington’s offense has had their moments throughout the year, but they are just a terrible matchup against Pittsburgh. Look for Washington really struggle to move the ball in this one and to be held under 14 points.

WR Chase Claypool to score TD and Pittsburgh win (+137)

The Steelers are very likely to win this game given the difference in talent level on both sides of the ball. So the bet here is if Claypool will reach the end zone. He’s scored 10 touchdowns in 11 games this season and is the team’s go-to weapon when they get near the end zone. Look for him to see multiple red-zone targets in this game and to find the end zone at least once.

Steelers OVER 13.5 first-half points (+100)

After starting last week off slow, look for head coach Mike Tomlin’s team to come out firing to open this game. Can the Steelers score two touchdowns in the first half? Absolutely. If the defense dominates as we anticipate, they could get several chances on offense with good field position in the first 30 mins of this game.

Steelers first to 20 points (-162)

As previously mentioned, we have our doubts Washington is going to do much scoring this week. That is why the Steelers are a safe bet to be the first team to score 20 or more points in this game. While the odds are a bit chalky, this is a relatively safe bet if you are looking for a low-risk bet to root for Monday.

NFL Prop Bets Payday: 5 New York Jets prop predictions for Week 13

Highlighting five prop bets to make on the New York Jets for their Week 13 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.

The New York Jets (0-11) host the Las Vegas Raiders (6-5) for a 1 p.m. ET kickoff at MetLife Stadium. Below, we give you five player/team prop bet predictions for the Jets to consider from the BetMGM game menu in Week 13.

New York Jets Week 13 prop bet predictions

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 9:25 a.m. ET.

Jets OVER 20.5 points (+130)

Betting on the Jets to score three touchdowns is always tricky, but they will face a Raiders team that just allowed 43 points to the Atlanta Falcons last week.

Without several key defenders, this could be a game in which New York finds some success through the air. Don’t be surprised if they get into the mid-20s in this game.

QB Sam Darnold OVER 225.5 (-135)

As previously mentioned, the Raiders are a little banged up on defense. Starting safety Johnathan Abram was ruled out due to a knee injury and it’s possible the team could be without two other key defensive backs in Trayvon Mullen and Isaiah Johnson. Don’t be surprised if Darnold hits a few big plays down the field against this rough pass defense.

WR Breshad Perriman OVER 55.5 receiving yards (-110)

After signing with New York this offseason, Perriman is starting to heat up. In his last three games, he has caught 11 passes for 234 yards and three touchdowns. He eclipsed 50 yards in each game and will have his easiest opponent this week in the Raiders.

Look for Perriman to get his usual 7-8 targets and hit a few big plays down the field. He should smash the Over 55.5 receiving yards in this game.

QB Sam Darnold to throw OVER 1.5 touchdowns (+130)

It’s been a rough season for Darnold and the Jets this year as he has yet to have a game in which he has thrown more than one touchdown. This could be the week due to all of the injuries on the Las Vegas defense.

At +130, don’t be surprised if Darnold throws multiple touchdowns for the first time this season in what should be a relatively competitive game at MetLife Stadium.

WR Denzel Mims to score a touchdown (+225)

Mims has shown a lot of promise over the last five games, catching 17 passes for 284 yards; however, he has yet to reach the end zone yet in his NFL career. Expect that to change Sunday as Mims should see multiple end zone targets against this soft pass defense of the Raiders.

NFL Prop Bets Payday: 5 New York Jets prop predictions for Week 12

Highlighting five prop bet predictions for the New York Jets’ Week 12 game against the Miami Dolphins.

The New York Jets (0-10) host the Miami Dolphins (6-4) for a 1 p.m. ET kickoff at MetLife Stadium. Below, we give you five player/team prop bet predictions for the Jets to consider from the BetMGM game menu in Week 12.

New York Jets Week 12 prop bet predictions

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 9:20 a.m. ET.

Jets OVER 20.5 points (+130)

With QB Sam Darnold back in the lineup, he finally has his full assortment of weapons at wide receiver. Rookie WR Denzel Mims is starting to get hot, catching 13 passes for 217 yards over the last four games. While the Jets aren’t going to be mistaken for the Kansas City Chiefs, look for them to score 21 or more points against Miami Sunday.

WR Denzel Mims to score a TD (+200)

Speaking of Mims, he has yet to score a touchdown in his NFL career. He has been close a few times, but he just hasn’t been able to reach the end zone. Look for him to do so in Week 12 as the team gets Darnold back onto the field.

QB Sam Darnold OVER 228.5 passing yards (-112)

On paper, you would think the Dolphins would be a better pass defense. With their outstanding secondary, they should be able to limit passing yards but that hasn’t been the case as they have allowed 246.4 passing yards per game. Look for Darnold to hit the Over at 228.5, even if a lot of those passing yards come in the second half.

RB Frank Gore UNDER 67.5 total yards (-110)

Gore is coming off his best game of the season in Week 11, as he totaled 71 yards on 17 touches. That came against a bad Los Angeles Chargers defense in a game in which the Jets hung around far too long. Don’t expect him to have the same success here in Week 12 and take the Under on total yards at 67.5.

WR Denzel Mims OVER 46.5 receiving yards (-112)

Despite a tough matchup against Dolphins CB Byron Jones, Mims should be able to find a way to be productive in this game. The Jets can use him on the outside or in the slot and his big catch radius allows him the chance to be open, even when a defender is tied to him. Look for Mims to see 8 or 9 targets in this game and to go over 46.5 yards as he is developing into the team’s No. 1 receiver.

Jets OVER 18.5 points (-110)

Can the Jets score 20 points in this game? Why not? They are coming off their best game of the season against the New England Patriots and their offense is starting to get healthier. While they aren’t going to get into a shootout, it wouldn’t be a surprise if they scored 21-24 points. Take the over 18.5 points as the Jets should be able to score at least 10 points in each half.

Jets OVER 0.5 first-quarter points (-125)

While we like the Jets to go over 18.5 points, it’s likely going to take them all four quarters to get there, and we like them to score at some point in the first quarter. Coming off the bye week, look for head coach Adam Gase to design an offensive gameplan that will help this team get off to a hot start. Look for the Jets to score on their opening drive, whether it’s a field goal or a touchdown.

Jets WR Denzel Mims OVER 47.5 receiving yards (-106)

Mims has played just two games this season, but he has impressed in both. After taking two weeks to rest up and learn more of the offense, expect Mims to be an even bigger part of the gameplan this week. He caught 4 passes for 62 yards against New England and that should be his floor each week. Mims should be a lock to go over 47.5 yards.

Jets WR Denzel Mims first NYJ TD scorer (+1000)

If you want a long-shot bet to take, consider betting on Mims to score the Jets’ first touchdown. He has the size and ball skills to win in the red zone and it’s clear he’s becoming a bigger part of the offense. At 10-1 odds, Mims is a good bet to be the team’s first touchdown scorer.

Steelers OVER 28.5 points (-106)

The Steelers have one of the best and most consistent offenses in the NFL. With the Jaguars devoid of talent on defense, they will have a hard time holding Pittsburgh under four touchdowns. Look for the Steelers to move the ball up and down the field on the Jaguars and win this game with ease.

Steelers -6 in the first half (-106)

With Jaguars QB Jake Luton getting another start for Jacksonville, it’s tough to believe the Jaguars will put up many points. That is especially true in the first half as the Steelers defense could easily outscore the Jaguars offense. That is why I love the bet of Pittsburgh -6 in the first half. The Steelers should hold a double-digit lead by halftime as Jacksonville struggles to move the ball.

Steelers WR Chase Claypool OVER 48.5 receiving yards (-115)

Over the last few weeks, we’ve seen the Steelers use more of Claypool down the field. While he and QB Ben Roethlisberger have yet to find a lot of success on these deep passes, their time is coming. Look for Week 11 to be another big game for Claypool as he should see 7 or 8 targets against one of the league’s worst secondaries. Over 48.5 yards feels like a lock in this one.

Steelers WR Chase Claypool (-125) to score a TD

Despite being a rookie, Claypool is a -125 favorite to score a touchdown. That shouldn’t be surprising considering he has scored eight touchdowns in his last six games and nine all together this season. When the Steelers gets in the red zone, they use their big, athletic star to get into the end zone.

Steelers WR James Washington to score and PIT win (+350)

The Steelers are -500 to win this game and Washington is a +333 underdog to catch a touchdown in this game. If you want to pair these two bets together into one, you can improve the odds to +350. Washington is the fourth receiver in this offense, but he does have three touchdowns on the season and sees a lot of work in the red zone. At 3.5-1 odds, Washington is a good bet to get into the end zone this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers Week 10 prop bet predictions

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 8:50 a.m. ET.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger OVER 278.5 yards (-110)

After a three-game road stretch, the Steelers return to Pittsburgh and will face one of the league’s worst secondaries. The Bengals have a ton of injuries and players out with COVID-19 in their cornerback room. Look for Roethlisberger to expose those absences. This should be an easy day at the office for Roethlisberger and company.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson OVER 51.5 yards (-106)

Whenever Johnson is healthy, he has been Roethlisberger’s favorite receiver. Despite missing some time with various injuries, Johnson already has four games this season in which he has seen double-digit targets. With all of the problems in Cincinnatti’s secondary, look for Johnson to have a monster game in Week 10.

Steelers PK Chris Boswell OVER 2.5 made extra points (-106)

Considering how bad the Bengals have been on defense this season, the Steelers are likely to score at least three touchdowns, if not several more. That’s why I like =Boswell to make over 2.5 extra points this week. While he did have one blocked and another miss in Week 9, he has been one of the league’s best kickers. Look for him to get back on track and make three or more extra points.

Steelers WR Chase Claypool to score TD and win (+137)

When the Steelers get into the red zone, Roethlisberger likes to find the rookie Claypool. Pittsburgh does a great job of using him in the run game, as well as in the passing game, as he might be the most athletic player on offense. Look for the Steelers to give the second-round pick from Notre Dame plenty of chances to score.

Steelers OVER 31.5 points (+210)

As we have been alluding to in this entire piece, Pittsburgh should have a huge day on offense against Cincinnati. The Steelers have scored at least 24 points in every game this season and their offense is one of the most explosive in the NFL. At +210, they are a good bet to score 32 or more points Sunday as the Bengals just don’t have the defensive personnel to matchup with the Steelers.

Highlighting five New York Jets prop bet predictions ahead of their Week 9 matchup against the New England Patriots.

The New York Jets (0-8) will host the New England Patriots (2-5) on Monday Night Football. Both teams are struggling to start the season and would love to get a divisional win. Below, we give you five player/team prop bets to consider from the BetMGM game menu in Week 9.

New York Jets Week 9 prop bet predictions

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Monday at 2:40 p.m. ET.

Jets UNDER 7.5 points in the first half (-167)

If you are going to make any bet on Monday Night Football, strongly consider betting on the Jets UNDER 7.5 points in the first half. With QB Joe Flacco under center in replacement of QB Sam Darnold, New York just doesn’t have many ways to score. It’s tough to envision the Jets scoring once, let alone twice in the opening quarter of the game and at -167, this is a relatively good payout for a likely “win.”

Jets UNDER 19.5 points (-223)

If you believe the Jets are going to struggle to score on offense (and why wouldn’t you), take them to score UNDER 19.5 points in Week 9. The Jets are averaging just 11.75 points per game this season and they have historically struggled to move the ball against a Bill Belichick-led defense. While the odds aren’t fantastic, take this easy win on Monday Night Football.

Jets WR Breshad Perriman OVER 29.5 receiving yards (-121)

If there is one thing Flacco does well, it’s throwing the deep ball. Perriman is the top speed option on the Jets roster, and he was with Flacco and the Baltimore Ravens earlier in his career. With a receiving yardage total set under 30 yards and no CB Stephon Gilmore for the Patriots in this matchup, look for Perriman to catch a few long passes and easily hit the Over.

Jets RB Frank Gore OVER 38.5 rushing yards (-112)

It hasn’t been a fantastic season for Gore. He’s averaging only 3.5 yards per carry and has yet to score a touchdown this season. With no other reliable options for New York, Gore should see a big workload again in Week 9. Look for the former All-Pro running back to go over 38.5 rushing yards and be the team’s focal point on offense tonight.

Jets WR Breshad Perriman to score 2 or more touchdowns (+3300)

If you are looking for a fun long-shot bet to root for on Monday Night Football, consider taking Perriman to score 2 or more touchdowns against the Patriots. He’s yet to score this season, but his speed and ball-skills always make him dangerous. Flacco should give him plenty of chances down the field in this game against a not-very-good Patriots defense.

NFL Prop Bets Payday: 5 Pittsburgh Steelers prop bet predictions for Week 9

Highlighting five Pittsburgh Steelers prop bet predictions ahead of their Week 9 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Pittsburgh Steelers (7-0) will face the Dallas Cowboys (2-6) Sunday of Week 9 for a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. Below, we give you five player/team prop bets to consider from the BetMGM game menu.

Pittsburgh Steelers Week 9 prop bet predictions

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 9:20 a.m. ET.

Steelers -3 (-110) in first quarter

The Cowboys are a team that always defers the football until the second half, meaning Pittsburgh should see multiple possessions in the first quarter. Considering Dallas has the league’s worst defense, the Steelers are a pretty good bet to score early and often in this game. Take Pittsburgh -3 in the first quarter and look for them to score multiple times.

Steelers RB James Conner OVER 78.5 rushing yards (-106)

The Steelers didn’t have much success running the ball against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8, but that shouldn’t be a problem Sunday as they face the league’s worst run defense. The Cowboys have allowed 170.9 rushing yards per game this season and Conner is firmly entrenched as the team’s workhorse back. Don’t be surprised if Conner comes close to the Over by halftime as Dallas just doesn’t have the front seven to slow him down.

Terms and conditions apply. Bet now!

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger OVER 1.5 passing touchdowns (-200)

While the odds aren’t great, consider taking Roethlisberger to throw 2 or more touchdowns against the Cowboys. Dallas’ secondary is ravished by injuries and is allowing the most points in the NFL. Pittsburgh has scored at least 26 points in every game this season and this feels like a “get right” game for Roethlisberger and the rest of the Steelers offense. Look for Big Ben to have a monster day in Week 9.

Will there be a safety in the game (YES at +750)

If you are searching for a fun long-shot prop bet in this game, consider wagering on a safety to be scored at +750. Dallas’ offensive line and new quarterback situation sets up for a sloppy game and Pittsburgh has one of the league’s best defenses. Don’t be surprised if there are multiple opportunities for a safety judging by how much the Dallas offense has struggled without QB Dak Prescott.

Steelers TE Eric Ebron to score first Pittsburgh touchdown (+900)

The Steelers haven’t used Ebron a ton in the red zone this season, but this feels like a matchup in which Pittsburgh might utilize their big tight end. Dallas has the league’s worst safety pairing and has struggled to stop tight ends in the red zone all season long. Look for Ebron to get a red-zone target early in this game and to potentially be the team’s first touchdown scorer.

5 Pittsburgh Steelers prop bet predictions for Week 8

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 8:45 a.m. ET.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger OVER 1.5 passing touchdowns (-121)

For Pittsburgh to upset Baltimore, it’s going to need a vintage Roethlisberger performance. Luckily, he has the weapons in the passing game to do so. Baltimore can be exposed some in the passing game as its linebackers and safeties are better against the run than against the pass. Look for Roethlisberger to clear 40 passing attempts in this game and wind up with two or more touchdowns.

Steelers RB James Conner UNDER 86.5 yards from scrimmage (-115)

Baltimore has one of the best front sevens in all of the NFL and teams are struggling to run the ball against them. While Conner has been fantastic this season, don’t expect him to be all that effective against Baltimore. Take the Under 86.5 yards.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson UNDER 53.5 receiving yards (-115)

After missing Week 6 due to an injury, Johnson saw a team-leading 15 targets in Week 7; however, he was forced to leave that game due to injury. Johnson is back in the lineup this week, but he is a shaky play right now considering his health issues. Expect him to see a few targets, but for the Under to hit as Roethlisberger spreads the ball around to multiple receivers

Steelers WR Chase Claypool UNDER 4.5 receptions (-143)

Claypool has had a fascinating rookie season. In Weeks 5-6, he saw 16 touches and turned them into 197 yards and five touchdowns. In Week 7, he received just one target as he was a non-factor against the Tennessee Titans. Expect him to be more involved in this game, but take the Under of 4.5 receptions as he has cleared that mark just once in his NFL career.

Steelers FB Derek Watt to score and Steelers win (+3300)

Looking for a real long-shot bet? Consider betting on Watt to score and for the Steelers to win. Watt is back in the lineup after missing time with an injury and the team will need him to play smash-mouth football. Don’t be surprised if he gets a red-zone carry or two or if Roethlisberger finds him on a play-action pass for an easy score. At 33-1, the odds are just too good to pass up.
