This Sunday’s NFL games start with the Philadelphia Eagles tackling the New York Giants in an NFC East Division rivalry and the New York Jets taking on the Buffalo Bills in an AFC East Division battle. The Eagles are seven-point road favorites and Buffalo are a nine-point favorite at home.
The Minnesota Vikings meet the Detroit Lions in an early afternoon NFC North match-up. The Loins are two-point home favorites and the total line is set at 52.5 points. The late afternoon games are the Kansas City Chiefs at the Denver Broncos and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the San Francisco 49ers. Kansas City (-9 points) and San Francisco (-3 points) are favorites in their match-ups.
Here are the best NFL player props picks for week 14:
Jalen Hurts Over 282.5 Passing and Rushing Yards (-115)
As a running quarterback, Jalen Hurts can pile up the yards in front of the opposing team fast. He has passed the ball for 2940 yards in 12 games and he has rushed the ball 924 yards on 132 carries.
Hurts is averaging 8.2 yards per pass completion and another 4.6 yards per rushing attempt. The Giants are allowing 359.8 total yards per game, which is ranked 23rd in the league.
Josh Allen Over 1.5 Passing TD’s (-150)
Buffalo’s 20-17 loss to the Jets on Nov. 6 as a 10.5-point road favorite may have some weight in this game. Josh Allen could be at his best throwing the ball as quarterback on the Bills offense.
He has thrown 25 touchdown passes through 12 games this season, including a combined four TD passes in his last two games. Allen could clear this mark (1.5+ passing TD’s) sometime in the third quarter.
Jared Goff Over 266.5 Passing Yards (-115)
Minnesota opened as a three-point road favorite, but the Lions are favored by two points at home. Detroit quarterback Jared Goff has something to do with that change. He is coming off a loss to Buffalo and a win against Jacksonville having completed a combined 54 passes for 580 yards.
The Vikings defense is giving up 283.6 passing yards a game, which is ranked 32nd in the NFL. Minnesota is counting on scoring more points than Detroit in this division game.
Patrick Mahones Over 272.5 Passing Yards (-115)
Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahones leads the NFL this season in passing yards with 3808 yards in 12 games. He has exceeded 300+ passing in six of his last seven games. This past Sunday, Mahones only came up with 223 passing yards in a 27-24 loss to Cincinnati.
Denver’s defense is only giving up 184.5 passing yards a game, but the quality of quarterbacks have a say in that as well. Mahones averages 317.3 yards per game passing so 272.5+ yards in this game is within reason.
Christian McCaffrey Over 95.5 Rushing and Receiving Yards (-120)
San Francisco quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is out for this game, so running back Christian McCaffrey will assume a bigger role in rushing and receiving the ball. He has 75 attempts caring the ball for 307 yards and he has 33 receptions for 283 passing yards in six games with the 49ers.
McCaffrey should be featured as the go-to player when the 49ers first touch the ball. His running and receiving should also add up to 95.5+ yards before the final quarter of this game.
