Week 12 of the NFL started with an interesting, snowy matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cleveland Browns. While many anticipated the Steelers to run away with this one, it was the Browns who came out on top.
This put the Steelers in a rough place as it pertains to their standing in the AFC North, and it certainly brought madness to the start of the week! With any luck, the rest of the week will provide more fun, exciting games for fans to tune into.
We’re going to dive into a few key matchups, giving our favorite player props from each one. Let’s get to it!
We don’t usually bet on interceptions, but this one seems inevitable. Tommy DeVito and the New York Giants are taking on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, a game that many expect will be a blowout.
DeVito is making his first start of the season given Daniel Jones’ benching and release, and it just so happens to be against a tough defense.
We all remember DeVito’s magic from last year, and while we’d love to see it again in this game, there’s a good chance that he’ll be rusty from the bench and throw at least one pick.
Player | Prop | Price |
---|---|---|
Justin Jefferson | Over 6.5 Receptions | |
Justin Jefferson | Under 6.5 Receptions |
Justin Jefferson has had several dominant games against the Chicago Bears, and that was when they had a strong secondary. The Bears defense isn’t what it once was, giving Jefferson and Sam Darnold a prime opportunity to put up some big numbers.
He’s had over seven catches against the Bears in three games thus far and would love nothing more than to put together another big game. Look for Jefferson to flex on a divisional rival and rack up at least seven receptions in this one.
The Kansas City Chiefs are fresh off their first loss of the season, which came at the hands of the Buffalo Bills. The Bills are among their biggest competitors in the AFC, and while it was a frustrating loss, it was explainable.
Now that the Chiefs are facing off against the Carolina Panthers this week, it could be a great opportunity for their offense to find their way against an inferior opponent.
Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are starting to get in sync, but an opponent like this could be what the doctor ordered to help them stay on track for the back half of the season.
