We were finally graced with an exciting Thursday Night Football game last week between the Jaguars and the Saints, and fingers crossed we can roll that into Week 8 when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the Buffalo Bills. Josh Allen and company are coming off an upset loss to the New England Patriots, while the Bucs are coming off 2 straight losses and desperately need a win to keep this from spiraling.

We’re on a 12-7 run on NFL player prop bets over the past 2 weeks, so let’s keep that going and cash another winner on TNF!

Dalton Kincaid, TE, BUF 25+ Receiving Yards & James Cook, RB, BUF 40+ Rushing Yards (+116)

Same Game Parlay available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing

My first Same Game Parlay of the year! James Cook is averaging 4.97 yards per carry this season and even though the Tampa Bay rush defense has looked dominant at times, the Bills pose a certain threat through the air and ground that not many teams can replicate. Philadelphia is one of those teams and D’Andre Swift had the best game of his career (in primetime) against the Buccaneers. Cook would need 8-9 carries to hit this mark, which he’s done in 6 of 7 games.  He’s also gone for 40+ yards in 5 of those 7. As for Dalton Kincaid, he is coming off the best game of his young career and Dawson Knox’s absence should solidify his target share. Tampa Bay allows the 6th-most targets per game to opposing tight ends, so even Kincaid’s low ADOT make 25+ achievable in 3 catches. 1U

Mike Evans, WR, TB, Over 4.5 receptions (-105)

Line available on DraftKings Sportsbook at the time of publishing

Evans has hit this mark in 4 of 6 games and has seen 8+ targets in 5 of 6. The Bills’ defense on paper is still being propped up from performances in Weeks 1 through 3, but since injuries have decimated that side of the ball it has actually looked grim. They have allowed 13+ receptions in 4 straight games to wide receivers alone and even managed to make New England QB Mac Jones look competent for the first time all season. If this game gets ugly, the negative game script will force Baker Mayfield into a pass-heavy approach. If the Bucs want any chance at being competitive, Evans will need to be involved; he has gone over this line in 2 of 3 wins and in the one miss he left early due to injury but still managed 3 catches on 37% of snaps. 1U.
