We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which today are from DraftKings Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook. We’ll discuss whether or not they are worth playing.

Tom Brady to record 350+ passing yards – Boosted from +330 to +380 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs Tom Brady to have a huge performance against a solid Rams defense. It needs the Tampa Bay quarterback to throw for at least 350 yards, something he has done in 7 games this year. He is averaging 312.7 passing yards per game and had the most passing yards in the NFL this season. However, there is reason to be weary of backing this prop. This mainly has to do with the injuries the Bucs are dealing with. Some of their top wide receivers are sidelined and several of their offensive linemen are banged up. Despite the win last week against the Eagles, Brady’s timing seemed off, so avoiding this prop looks to be the best option.

Josh Allen to record 3+ passing touchdowns – Boosted from +220 to +250 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs Buffalo QB Josh Allen to record at least 3 passing touchdowns tonight against the Kansas City Chiefs. Allen had 36 passing touchdowns this season, an average of 2.1 per game. He threw for 3 or more touchdowns in 6 regular-season games. He also had a near-perfect performance last week against the Patriots, throwing for 5 passing touchdowns. In the regular season meeting with the Chiefs, Allen threw for 3 touchdowns, so backing this prop looks to be worth a play.

Stephen Curry & Klay Thompson to combine for 10+ threes– Boosted from +400 to +475 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs Golden State’s Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson to combine for at least 10 3-pointers tonight against the Utah Jazz. Curry is averaging 4.9 3-pointers per game, while Thompson is averaging only 2.2. Since returning from a long-term injury, Thompson really has not shot the 3 that well, which includes going 0 for 7 behind the arc in his most recent game. The Jazz tend to be pretty good defensively, so they are likely to have a game plan to run Curry and Thompson off the 3-point line. For that reason, this prop looks best avoided.

Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford to each have 1+ passing touchdowns in each half – Boosted from +270 to +350 with FanDuel Sportsbook

This prop focuses on Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford and needs each quarterback to record at least 1 passing touchdown in each half. Both offenses are likely going to have success move the ball in this game and in terms of yards, they were both in the top 3 in the NFL. They are were 1st and 2nd in terms of touchdown passes this season, the Rams have plenty of options at wide receiver, and even though Brady’s wide receiver corps is depleted, he will make plays with the guys available. For that reason, this prop looks to be worth a small play.
