It’s Week 8 in the NFL, and we are starting to hit the midseason stretch. This Week 8 Thursday Night Football matchups sees the Buffalo Bill taking on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Here are my plays for this week’s Thursday Night Football game.
Check out the latest episodes of the JCPod for my full breakdowns. All odds are from FanDuel, DraftKings, and BetMGM.
Straights
Bucs +9 (-110)
Nine is a lot of points for NFL games, especially a prime time game. I feel as if the Buccaneers are a bit better than the average NFL fan will give them credit for. Baker has not played the worst this year at all either. The defensive line could also give the Bills issues. But, the run game for the Bucs has been an issue so far this season.
Along with that, the Bills need a win badly and are at home in this spot. I can see the Bills winning, but I feel as if the Bucs can keep it close, especially if Vita Vea and Baker can play.
Props
Mike Evans anytime TD (+185) (boosted to+278 with 50% boost)
Mike Evans has been doing his thing so far this season. With a Bills defense that is struggling and missing some guys, I like for Mike Evans to reach the endzone. He has scored in 4 of 6 games he has played so far this season, and I see him doing it again tonight.
Baker Mayfield over 9.5 rush yards (-113)
I love quarterback rush yards, especially when they are lower. Bake has run for 30+ yards two of the last three weeks. He is comin in with a banged up knee, but I still like for him to hit his rush over. Baker is a tough guy. If he sees a chance to scoot and it is needed, he will do it. Give me Bakers rush over.
Parnell’s Nasty Boy Parlay Play of the Day
When it comes to tonight’s Thursday Night Football game , we will not try to get too fancy. I got odds of +1463. We used the boost on Mike Evans, so these are the odds I’m riding. The nasty boy is:
- Baker Mayfield rushing over 9.5 (-113)
- James Cook over 51.5 rush yards (-113)
- Mike Evans over 59.5 receiving yards (-113)
- Josh Allen over 25+ rush yards (+102)
Let’s have a DAY! PLEASE GAMBLE RESPONSIBLY
