It is that time again for another Sunday of NFL Football, this time in Week Three. There are some pretty good games on this slate, and there are some massive implications for teams who might lose this week.
Here are my plays for NFL Sunday Football Week Three.
Check out the latest episodes of the JCPod for my full breakdowns and analysis. All odds are a mix/the best number from Fanatics, BetMGM, FanDuel, and DraftKings.
Straights
Buccaneers money line (+106)
This just feels as desperate of a must win as a game gets. If the Buccaneers don’t win this game and fall to 0-3, it is gonna get really really loud down there in Tampa. The Vikings are for sure talented enough and good enough to win this game, I just feel as if the Buccaneers will be the more desperate team in this game. If the Buccaneers lose this game, you will most likely not see me give them out as a bet for the rest of the season.
Colts +1.5 (-105)
This will be a massive game in the AFC South. Both of these teams desperately need to win to get their season back on the right track, so this should be one of the more fun games of the day. I’m going to take the Colts to get the job done at home, as I feel they should be able to pull out a close win against the Texans. I will not be shocked at all the Texans win this game, but I just like that the Colts are the home team and I liked how their offense has been rolling. This game will just come down to can the Colts defense get one or two key stops. If they don’t, good chance the Texans can come in and steal one in Lucas Oil. 
Chiefs -10.5 (-112)
For the time being, I am going to be taking the spread of any team that is favored by anything under 14 points over the Miami Dolphins. The Miami Dolphins so far have separated themselves as one of the worst teams in the NFL. They are also facing the Chiefs, who have become an explosive offense again with the help of Kenneth Walker and Emmett Johnson in the rushing attack. 
Panthers -2.5 (-108)
I am a tad nervous to take the Panthers on the road against the Cleveland Browns, but this offense has been humming so good for me not to. If the Panthers offense can keep rolling like they have been, they should be able to score enough to outscore and beat the Browns.
Player Props
Darius Slayton over 12.5 receiving yards (-114)
I believe Darius Slayton should be getting anywhere from 2 to 4 receptions in this game. If that’s the case, he should be able to easily hit this over. 
Jonathan Taylor Rush over 80.5 (-125)
Jonathan Taylor usually has pretty good success when he plays against the Houston Texans. Due to that, I will be taking his rushing over in this game, expecting for him to have a massive game again. 
James Cook over 79.5 rush yards (-114)
The Chargers are really struggling this year, so I expect the Bills should have no issue putting up points in this game. Due to those factors, James Cook should probably be in store for another big rushing game as well. 
Parker Washington over 60+ receiving yards (-128)
Parker Washington has just been the go to guy for the Jaguars. Due to how reliable it is, I expect for him to be able to get about six or seven receptions in this game to help us hit this over. 
Emmett Johnson over 28.5 (-114) rush yards & Kenneth Walker over 82.5 (-114) rush yards
I’m going to be taking the rushing over for both of the Kansas City Chiefs running backs this week. I expect for the Chiefs to win this game big, so Kenneth Walker shouldn’t get a full game. That leaves Johnson the chance to get hopefully I go out of work in the fourth quarter to help hit this over. 
As for anytime touchdown scorers, I like: Josh Allen (-140), Kenneth Walker (-210), Emmett Johnson (+360), Travis Kelce (+135), Cam Skattebo (+100), Bhayshul Tuten (+150), Amon-Ra St. Brown (-125), Chubba Hubbard (-125), Jaxson Smith-Njigba (+100), Jonathan Taylor (-155), Christian McCaffrey (-270), Bucky Irving (+130), &
Parnell’s Nasty Boy Parlay Play of the Day
I went against my gut and put in the Kaleb Johnson rushing over instead of a Christian Watson touchdown on Thursday, and boy does that upset me. No second guessing this time.
I was able to get odds of +1784 boosted to +2141 with a 20% boost:
- Josh Allen anytime touchdown scorer (-140)
- Emmett Johnson anytime touchdown scorer (+360)
- Jonathan Taylor anytime touchdown scorer (-155)
- Christian McCaffrey anytime touchdown scorer (-270)
Let’s have a DAY! PLEASE GAMBLE RESPONSIBLY!
