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. Let’s dive in.

Dak Prescott to record 300+ passing yards – Boosted from +150 to +175 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop focuses on this afternoon’s NFL game as the Cowboys will take on the Raiders. Dak Prescott will need to throw for 300+ passing yards. He has managed to throw for more than 300 yards in only 3 of the 9 games this season, but against a Raiders team that is reeling, he should be able to have a big game. For that reason, backing this prop looks to be worth a play.

Stefon Diggs to record 100+ receiving yards – Boosted from +165 to +200 with DraftKings Sportsbook

Going to the NFL game tonight, this prop needs Stefon Diggs to record 100+ receiving yards against the Saints. This looks to be a bounce-back spot for the Bills and with the Saints’ offense missing plenty of players, their defense is likely going to be on the field for most of the night. Diggs is still one of Josh Allen’s top targets, so backing this prop is worth a shot.

70+ total points in Ole Miss vs Mississippi State – Boosted from +145 to +165 with DraftKings Sportsbook

The Egg Bowl tonight looks to be a good one as both teams have proven to have potent offenses for much of the season. Neither defense is great, however our experts expect there to be fewer points than might be predicted. For that reason, this prop is probably best stayed away from.

Ezekiel Elliott to score a touchdown & the Cowboys to win – Boosted from -105 to +150 with FanDuel Sportsbook

Going back to the Cowboys vs Raiders game, here we will need Ezekiel Elliot to score a touchdown and for the Cowboys to win the game. Elliot is generally heavily involved in the offense, so a touchdown should come for him naturally. We also like the Cowboys to cover, so backing this prop is worth a shot.

Josh Allen to throw for 300+ passing yards & score a rushing touchdown – Boosted from +500 to +600 with FanDuel Sportsbook

Going back to tonight’s game between the Bills and Saints and we will need Josh Allen to throw for 300+ passing yards and to have a rushing touchdown. Given how the Bills have been playing recently, this does not look worth a play. Allen might bounce back in a big way, but adding in the rushing touchdown makes this prop easy to stay away from.

Bills to cover -3.5 vs Saints – Boosted from -180 to +100 with FanDuel Sportsbook

One final prop for tonight’s game and here we just need the Bills to cover -3.5 against the Saints. Our experts actually like the Saints to cover the normal spread of +6, but a Bills win in the range of 24-20 seems reasonable, so backing this prop looks to be worth a small play.
