The last time these two teams met, there were 71 total points scored in a wild back-and-forth game that went to overtime. Based on the weather and slight defensive improvements, I’m not expecting this game to reach the 70 point mark, or 60 point mark for that matter. It feels like a contrarian play, but I lean the under, which currently sits at 56.5 points. I expect this game to be close, and it may come down to whoever has the ball and scores last.
Thursday Night Football Best Bet: UNDER 56.5 for a half unit bet.
Player Props: Russell Wilson under 315.5 passing yards.
First Touchdown Prop: there’s no shortage of options, as both teams have a lot of offensive firepower. DraftKings has better odds on the first touchdown scorer for this particular game. I like sprinkling smaller bets on any or all of the following:
- D.K. Metcalf +700
- Kyler Murray +650
- DeAndre Hopkins +1100 (odds boosted)
- Tyler Lockett +750
- Carlos Hyde +1200
- Christian Kirk +1500
