Best Player Prop Bets for NFL Week 13
Hello all! We hope you had a great week, heading into an exciting sports weekend, particularly with NFL action. There might be several teams on bye this week, but there are a lot of key matchups that we are excited about, none more so than the game between the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles.
We decided to take two player props from that game when studying the Sunday slate, given its magnitude and overall hype. We also selected our favorite prop from the Denver-Houston game based on one key factor we’ll get into shortly.
With this in mind, let’s review our three favorite player props for Sunday’s action, all of which can be found on Underdog!
This might seem like an unorthodox play in this game, especially with the number of talented receivers that C.J. Stroud has at his disposal. However, this play of Brevin Jordan’s over on receptions is solely based on one thing.
The Broncos defense stinks against tight ends. They have allowed 6.4 receptions to opposing tight ends this season and routinely give up big plays to the position. We love Jordan’s over in this regard, but we’re also excited about a potentially increased role in the offense moving forward.
Dalton Schultz will be out of this contest due to injury, opening the door for Jordan to have a big game. This might be bold, but we’re projecting Jordan to hit this over by halftime. Let’s get it!
Brandon Aiyuk OVER 63.5 Receiving Yards
This is the first of two props for the 49ers-Eagles game. While the Eagles are routinely touted as having one of the NFL’s best defenses, their secondary is leaky at best. They have allowed 196 yards per game to opposing wide receivers this season, the third-worst in the league.
This is excellent news for the 49ers, who want to come out of the gates hot, hoping to stun the Eagles. Look for Brandon Aiyuk to be involved early and often in this game, soaring over his projected yardage total.
He has had at least 64 yards in five games this season, but his big games have resulted in 100+ yards. This Eagles secondary presents an excellent chance for him to have another big game, hopefully cashing this total quickly!
A.J. Brown OVER 6 Receptions
We’re buying into the narrative for this game. A.J. Brown was tweeting during the Dallas Cowboys-Seattle Seahawks game, indicating potential frustration with his usage in the Eagles’ passing game.
For this reason, we believe Jalen Hurts will pepper him with targets throughout the game, hoping to get back into his good graces.
We wouldn’t be surprised if he eclipsed six receptions by the end of the third quarter, making this a sweat-free cash!
