The Philadelphia Eagles (3-6) will take on the Denver Broncos (5-4) Sunday in Week 10. Kickoff from Empower Field at Mile High is set for 4:25 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Eagles vs. Broncos player props, and make our best NFL picks and predictions.
Many thought the Broncos were just going to hang up their cleats for the season and look to next year after trading LB Von Miller. They did the opposite and walloped the Dallas Cowboys 30-16 in Week 9.
The Eagles are coming off 3-point loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. They’ve looked far more competent these last few weeks than they did to open the season, so this should be a highly competitive game.
Eagles at Broncos odds: Player prop bets
Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 10:15 a.m. ET.
Broncos QB Teddy Bridgewater UNDER 1.5 passing touchdowns (+110)
Denver has won two straight games, and Bridgewater, despite the team having a combined 47 points, had just one touchdown in each.
He’s never been a touchdown-heavy quarterback but more so a quality game manager, and he’s had just one or zero touchdowns in four of his last seven games.
Having struggled to get in the end zone throwing the ball, Bridgewater may not have much chance to get on the board against Philadelphia.
There’s no telling who it will be if the Broncos score, and it’s often not been Bridgewater these past few weeks. I’d bet the trend continues but I wouldn’t put a ton on it.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts OVER 47.5 rushing yards (-120)
Jalen Hurts is one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in the NFL. He’s been able to extend plays and get the Eagles critical first downs with his legs. Hurts getting rushing yards is certainly someone could bet on.
He’s rushed for 47 or more yards six times this season and has hit this mark the past three games.
Denver’s opponents average just over 23 rush attempts per game. If Hurts get five or six of those carries he could easily snag over 47 yards on the ground. He’s averaging just over 9 rush attempts per game.

Broncos RB Melvin Gordon OVER 14.5 receiving yards (-112)
The last player prop we have for you is Melvin Gordon’s receiving yards prop. Gordon has hit this six times this season, and he’s had at least two targets per game in every single game. The Broncos have often used him as a receiving threat despite him not typically being known for his receiving ability.
Philly allows the sixth most completions per game (25.7), so Bridgewater should have a field day dumping it underneath to Gordon,. He should hit 15 yards as a receiver.
