Top NFL Week 7 Player Prop Bets

EDITOR NOTE: Jones popped up as questionable on the Packers’ injury list with a slightly strained calf, per reports.

Aaron Jones Over 78.5 (-115)

This is my favorite prop of Week 7 on PointBet, only because there are no TD props available as of publication.

Aaron Jones is facing a Texans run defense that has given up almost 1,000 rushing yards through six games this season, and I expect Jones to run wild on Sunday.

He’s already had at least 66 rush yards in four of five games, and for him to get to 79 against a team that is allowing an average of more than 161 rush yards per game looks like a gimme to me. -Paul Shapiro

Aaron Jones to get 100+ rushing yards (+150)

I am going out on a limb here, but I absolutely love Aaron Jones this week.

While he only went north of 100 rushing yards once this season, he exploited his best matchup for enemy running backs that he’s faced so far in the effort, popping off for 168 yards against the Lions back in Week 2.

Now, he will get his second-easiest matchup of the year on Sunday facing the Texans, who have allowed four different backs to eclipse the 100-yard rushing mark against them in six games. -Anthony Cervino

Matt Ryan & Matthew Stafford to combine for 600 passing yards (-125)

The Lions-Falcons matchup is a projected high-scoring affair between two of the league’s most potent offenses, and that means passing yards galore.

While the Lions defense is allowing the fourth-fewest passing yards this season, the Falcons are yielding the most by a wide margin. And with Kenny Golladay, Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, and the rest of the supporting cast on both sides healthy and in line to play, Matthew Stafford and Matt Ryan should easily combine for 600 yards on Sunday.

Although Stafford has thrown for fewer than 299 yards in every game this season, Ryan has thrown for at least 371 yards twice. Both signal-callers are poised to pop in Week 7. -AC

Mike Davis To Get 75+ Rushing Yards (+220)

Mike Davis has almost seamlessly taken over for Christian McCaffrey in the Panthers’ backfield since the All-Pro was injured in Week 2. Davis continues to get 20-plus touches each week.

This game should be no different, which is why I love this Over prop. Davis has topped 75 rushing yards twice in the past three weeks, and I expect him to do it again Sunday. -PS

Travis Kelce over 67.5 receiving yards (-115)

Travis Kelce has punished the Broncos throughout his likely Hall of Fame career. In 11 games facing the Broncos, Kelce has gone over the 67.5-receiving-yard total seven times, including in six of his past seven games.

While the Broncos have played enemy tight ends well this season, Kelce is matchup-proof, especially against a familiar in-division foe who he’s had this much-maintained success against since 2014. -AC

Alvin Kamara To Get 75+ Rushing Yards (+130)

On the other RB side of my Mike Davis bet, the odds aren’t nearly as good, but I’m taking the 75-plus rushing yards prop here.

Alvin Kamara is averaging 4.6 yards per carry leading into the Saints’ bye week, and he’s topped 75 rushing twice in the past four weeks.

He faces a Panthers rush defense that has allowed more than 100 rushing yards and a whopping 8 TDs to running backs in six games this season, so I love the plus odds on any Kamara prop this weekend. -PS
