NFL week 13 prop bet picks and predictions

Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Saturday at 8:10 a.m. ET.

Bears QB Justin Fields SCORES A RUSHING/RECEIVING TOUCHDOWN (+140)

– Host Packers, Sunday 1 p.m. ET (FOX)

Since the Bears decided to allow Fields to run, he has scored at least 1 rushing touchdown in his last 5 games. In his first 6 games, he only scored 1 rushing TD, which came against the Packers.

It seems like everyone in the NFC North is sensing a swift and pronounced changing of the guard. The Vikings and Lions both got the Packers off their back. If the Bears are going to make it a trifecta, Fields will likely need to take 1 in with his legs.

He has proclaimed himself healthy. That’s good enough for me.

Vikings WR Justin Jefferson OVER 83.5 receiving yards (-115)

– Host Jets, Sunday 1 p.m. ET (CBS)

Jefferson and Jets CB Sauce Gardner will be in a matchup a lot of people are talking about Sunday. Sauce has earned his respect. Jefferson has taken it and dominated.

The Jets will leave Gardner one-on-one with Jefferson for numerous plays. The Vikings have the confidence in Jefferson to simply put up 50/50 balls and let him go get it because he has won enough 20/80 balls to garner that trust.

The way J.J. piles up yards, they will only have to hit on 2 deep shots and cover the rest with slants and bubble screens.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes UNDER 308.5 passing yards (-115)

– At Bengals, Sunday 4:25 p.m. ET (CBS)

I always take pause when I see a passing number over 300 yards on the O/U board. Although it’s near Mahomes’ career average, it’s asking a lot against a team with a solid pass defense.

If I thought Kansas City was going to lose this game, I would be all over the Over. I think the Chiefs are going to exorcise the demons of January’s 2 losses to the Bengals and play much more of a ball-control game mixing the run and pass and forcing Cincinnati to be off-balance.

I never like betting against Mahomes, but I don’t think he needs this number to win the game.

Browns RB Nick Chubb OVER 94.5 rushing yards (-115)

– At Texans, Sunday 1 p.m. ET (CBS)

Chubb will be secondary in the lead-up to this game. It’s all Deshaun Watson all the time on his return to Houston.

Watson will get his, but the Browns are going to be primed to obliterate the Texans, who own Cleveland’s draft for the short-term future.

Chubb may have to play sidekick early as the Browns let Watson throw early and often to make a statement. But there are few scenarios that don’t have Cleveland running Chubb 20 or more times.

It’s a big number, but if you’re anticipating a significant number of carries like I am, you don’t need to pop too many to hit it.

Eagles WR A.J. Brown OVER 77.5 receiving yards (-115)

– Host Titans, Sunday 1 p.m. ET (FOX)

There are scenarios that will have both teams running the ball and bleeding the clock, but Brown and Eagles QB Jalen Hurts are like brothers, and Brown is facing the team that shipped him out of Nashville.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Brown targeted 3 or 4 times in the first drive alone just to make a point. Even if the Eagles can run easily on the Titans – far from a certainty – Brown is going to get his chances.

Expect 10 or more targets. I like my odds on his getting 78 yards if that happens.

NFL Player Prop Bets Picks: 3 best value bets of Week 13

Analyzing the Week 13 matchups and offering up expert picks and predictions on the top player prop bets.

With several key, playoff-implicating matchups this week, NFL fans should be glued to their seats for 9 hours of football on Sunday. Below, we look at the NFL Week 13 player prop bets odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

After a Thursday Night Football game that featured America’s team, the Dallas Cowboys, on the road against the New Orleans Saints, fans should be primed for a game with actual flow. The Cowboys ran away with the 27-17 win.

That said, fans will be treated to Bengals-Chargers, Ravens-Steelers and Bills-Patriots in Week 13. The latter two are respectively going to be Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football.

For those wanting a little more spicy in their day, let’s dive into 3 player props with great value.

Week 13 prop bets picks

Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Saturday at 10 a.m. ET.

Vikings RB Alexander Mattison UNDER 82.5 rushing yards (-103)

After beating the winless Lions by two earlier in the season, the two sides will now face off in Michigan. At Ford Field, Detroit will look to slow down a Dalvin Cook-less Vikings.

Mattison has been the main backup for the Vikings.

The 23-year-old has topped 100 yards in each of his starts this season; however, this should be different. Mattison might have had a few breakout games, but he’s only averaging 3.6 yards per carry.

Despite Detroit having a weak rush defense, I expect them to stay competitive, and that means slowing the run. Mattison has played well, but getting 26 carries, like he did in his before two starts, doesn’t seem likely.

49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo OVER 229.5 passing yards (-114)

The Seattle Seahawks’ secondary has been absolutely atrocious this season. It’s crazy to think Seattle has been this bad, but the Jamal Adams-led secondary has been far from what they once were.

Seattle is giving up over 274 passing yards per game.

With Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk having been heating up lately, Jimmy G should be able to abuse the Seahawks secondary. Garoppolo has topped this number five times this season.

He should do it again Sunday.

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor OVER 107.5 rushing yards (-114)

Jonathan Taylor has been on an absolutely dominant stretch lately, and he’s doing it without that many carries either. His workload has drastically increased though, and he’s clearly the lead back in Indy.

The Colts will be facing the Texans this week, a team they throttled earlier in the season. In the Colts’ 31-3 victory, Taylor ran for 145 yards on 14 carries. He averaged over 10 yards per carry.

Houston has the second-worst opponent’s rushing yards per game. They allow, on average, over 130. They’ve just been horrendous at stopping the run, and I bet that poor play continues into Week 13.

Bet on another huge week from the league’s rushing leader.
