BetAmerica has various prop bets on statistical leaders – both player and team – every Sunday of the NFL season. Here is a quick look at three markets in this category that offer props players some value.

Most passing yards

Patrick Mahomes (+500) is understandably the betting favorite here as the superstar Kansas City Chiefs signal caller faces the Denver Broncos at Arrowhead Stadium, but there appear to be other quarterbacks who draw easier matchups this Sunday.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr (+1800) is due for a bounce-back game after the Atlanta Falcons handed him his lunch in Week 12. He draws a soft matchup with the New York Jets’ secondary (284 passing yards allowed per game, third-most in the NFL) at MetLife Stadium this Sunday.

Longshot players could do worse than Baker Mayfield (+4000), whose Cleveland Browns visit the Tennessee Titans this Sunday in a game that profiles as a potential “track meet.”

NFL pick: Derek Carr (+1800)


Most team points

The Chiefs (+400) are favored in this market, but the Indianapolis Colts (+1200) look like a far better value bet.

The Colts have scored no fewer than 26 points in five of their last six games. They’ll match up with a Houston Texans defense that’s allowed the 10th most points per game (27) in the NFL this season.

NFL pick: Colts (+1200)


Least team points

It looks difficult to beat the chalk, the Cincinnati Bengals (+400), in this market.

Quarterback Brandon Allen did not inspire much confidence in his first start following a season-ending injury to No. 1 overall pick Joe Burrow, putting up just 136 passing yards and 17 points against the New York Giants.

Now he’ll lead the Bengals into battle at Hard Rock Stadium against the Miami Dolphins, who’ve allowed only 18.6 points per game in 2020, the second-lowest mark in the league.

NFL pick: Bengals (+400)
