Thursday Night Football

The Buccaneers come into Thursday night dealing with cluster injuries at wide receiver with Chris Godwin and Justin Watson ruled out and with Mike Evans and Scotty Miller game-time decisions. Someone is going to have to catch the rock for Tom Brady this week so I’m looking at Gronk to finally start creating some noise for the first time since coming out of retirement. I’m looking at Rob Gronkowski over .5 TDs (130 pts) and Gronk over 35.5 receiving yards (105 pts) while also taking Mike Evans under 70.5 receiving yards (110 pts) as a correlated prop since I think he could struggle through his leg injury in a short week. Good luck and enjoy a much better Thursday night game compared to last week’s Broncos-Jets game! — Tom Brolley

This Tampa Bay defense has been fun to watch, but if they’re vulnerable in a particular area, it’s the slot. Sean Murphy-Bunting - who has been battling a groin injury - has allowed 17 receptions on 18 targets for 222 yards and 2 TDs so far. Nick Foles could look to his slot receiver often in this matchup, so I’m taking both Anthony Miller over 3.5 receptions (85 points) and over 41.5 receiving yards (100 points). — Justin Varnes

Sunday Games

George Kittle returned with a vengeance last week off of his knee injury as he caught all FIFTEEN of his targets for 183 yards and a touchdown against the Eagles. He’ll get starting QB Jimmy Garoppolo back this week, and all he needs to do is catch a third of his passes from last week to top his Thrive prop so give me George Kittle over 4.5 receptions. I’m expecting the Bengals to be fairly competitive with the Ravens this week so I’m looking at Tee Higgins over 41.5 receiving yards and Joe Burrow over 1.5 passing TDs. Baker Mayfield has yet to throw for 220 yards in a game this season and he’s reached 200+ passing yards just once this season. I’m expecting a bit of a low-scoring affair between a pair of 3-1 teams in the Browns and Colts so I’ll take Baker Mayfield under 241.5 passing yards. Good luck today! — Tom Brolley
