NFL Player Props Week 5: NFL Predictions & Best NFL Picks This Weekend!

⭐ Joe Burrow Under 247.5 Passing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

Given Joe Burrow's struggles this season, we're going to continue to fade the Cincinnati quarterback until we see some production from him and the Bengals offense. 

We like Joe Burrow Under 247.5 Passing Yards (-114) at FanDuel. Burrow has the lowest passing yards per attempt in the entire league at 4.8 yards. Burrow has thrown for over 247 yards just once this season during a Week 3 win over the Los Angeles Rams when he converted 26 of 49 passes for 259 yards. In Burrow's other three games, he threw for just 82, 222 and 165 yards. 

Given how anemic the Bengals' passing offense has been, we are going to fade Burrow's passing yardage prop against the Cardinals. 

⭐ Best Betting Pick: Joe Burrow Under 247.5 Passing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

⭐ Derrick Henry Over 75.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

With the Indianapolis Colts recently struggling to top the run, we are going to target Derrick Henry's rushing prop. Henry remains one of the top running backs in the league, and given Tennessee's typical run-focused offense, we know he will get his carries against the Colts. 

We like Derrick Henry Over 75.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel. The Colts have allowed the 10th-most rushing yards in the league this year at 507 yards, giving up an average of 126.7 yards per contest. In the two recent games, the Colts allowed 164 rushing yards to the Rams and 186 to the Ravens. 

Henry is coming off one of his best games of the season with 122 yards on 22 carries and had one touchdown and a passing touchdown at the goal line. Henry also ranks second in the league in carries with 73, so he will have plenty of opportunities to clear this prop. 

⭐ Best Betting Pick: Derrick Henry Over 75.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

⭐ Christian McCaffrey Over 78.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

Christian McCaffrey has been one of the best offensive players in the NFL this season. It's clear he's fully flourishing with the San Francisco 49ers in his second year with the team. McCaffrey leads the league with 459 rushing yards, which is almost 100 more than second-place D'Andre Swift. 

We're going to back McCaffery for the Sunday night showdown against the Dallas Cowboys and take Christian McCaffrey Over 78.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel. He also leads the league in carries with 80, which is ideal when taking the over on a rushing yards prop. 

McCaffrey ranks eighth in the league in yards per attempt at 5.7 and has cleared 79 rushing yards in every game this season, including 152 yards against Pittsburgh, 116 versus the Rams, 85 yards against the Giants and 106 yards in a win over the Cardinals. Dallas has been susceptible to the run this season, giving up 98 yards to James Conner in the loss to the Cardinals. 

With how well McCaffrey has played this season, we expect him to roll.

⭐ Best Betting Pick: Christian McCaffrey Over 78.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

⭐ Matthew Stafford Over 38.5 Passing Attempts (-110) at bet365

The Rams are set to welcome back Cooper Kupp from the IR due to a hamstring injury, a move that promises to significantly elevate their passing game. Matthew Stafford, who had an impressive 55 passing attempts against the 49ers in Week 2, is expected to be just as aggressive against the Eagles. 

Given that the 49ers have one of the best run defenses in the league, a similar game plan is likely when the Rams face off against the Eagles. Therefore, one of my NFL Week 5 predictions is that Matthew Stafford will exceed 38.5 passing attempts, with odds of -110 at bet365.

⭐ Best Betting Pick: Matthew Stafford Over 38.5 Passing Attempts (-110) at bet365

⭐ Mac Jones Under 210.5 Passing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

Since his impressive 316-yard performance against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1, New England's Mac Jones has been struggling. Over the last three weeks, he's thrown more interceptions (three) than touchdowns (two) and has amassed just 582 passing yards. 

Given his recent form, including a dismal 150-yard, two-interception game against the Cowboys that led to his benching for Bailey Zappe, we're leaning towards Mac Jones Under 210.5 Passing Yards at FanDuel with odds of -114. The possibility of Jones being pulled early again adds another layer of confidence to this under bet on his passing yards. Whether due to poor performance or an early exit, there are multiple reasons to favor the under on Jones' passing yardage.

⭐ Best Betting Pick: Mac Jones Under 210.5 Passing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

⭐ Rhamondre Stevenson Under 51.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel

The New England Patriots are struggling with their ground game, ranking 23rd in the league in rushing yards with 374 and 28th in yards per carry at 3.4. Their inability to establish a consistent running game is evident. Given this, our pick is Rhamondre Stevenson Under 51.5 Rushing Yards at FanDuel, with odds of -114. 

Stevenson had 14 carries against the Cowboys but only managed 30 yards. He's also dealing with a thigh injury and has been limited in practice this week. Aside from a 59-yard performance against the Jets in Week 3, Stevenson's rushing totals have been 25, 50, and 30 yards in his other games. This lack of early-season productivity makes the under on his rushing yards a compelling choice.

⭐ Best Betting Pick: Rhamondre Stevenson Under 51.5 Rushing Yards (-114) at FanDuel
