Best Player Props for Ravens-Bills

Sunday Night Football in ‘The Bank’ is always a spectacle. Especially when an undefeated foe such as the 3-0 Buffalo Bills come walking into the building. With the Ravens coming off their first win of the season, a 28-25 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, M&T Bank Stadium will sure be rocking. A win will bring the Ravens back to .500 with a division matchup in Cincinnati around the corner. We’re on the hunt for more wins in the player prop betting department as well, as we were able to go 3-2 last week on the back of Derrick Henry, bringing us to 11-4 on the season. Any time Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson take the field, points will be scored, meaning this is another great opportunity to cash in on some more player props.

Here are five player props to consider heading into Sunday Night Football. Let’s Stay Hot:

Derrick Henry O 69.5 Rushing Yards (-110 ESPN Bet)

After a game where Derrick Henry rushed for 151 yards on 25 carries, this prop did not move at all from last week. The Cowboys defensive line is certainly inferior to that of the Bills, but the Bills are still vulnerable against the run, surrendering 118.3 YPG through the first three weeks. This is a must win game for the Ravens, as a win against the undefeated Bills will without a doubt come into play during the home stretch when we are fighting for playoff seeding. With that in mind, we can anticipate the Ravens won’t overthink the gameplan and go right back to what got them their first win of the season. Feed The King.

Josh Allen O 224.5 Passing Yards (-140 ESPN Bet)

The Ravens are dead last in the NFL in pass defense, and Josh Allen is coming into this week as the MVP favorite through the first three weeks. Last week, Dak Prescott had his way with the Ravens secondary, throwing for 379 yards on 51 attempts. The Ravens offense has been efficient this season, forcing a lot of teams to throw the ball around to keep up. I expect that trend to continue, and Allen is good enough to reach this mark under that circumstance, even in a hostile environment.

Justice Hill 30+ Rushing + Receiving Yards (-140 ESPN Bet)

Its clear at this point that Ravens view Justice Hill as a key part of their offense in the absence of Keaton Mitchell. Hill has played 88% of the Ravens third downs this season (per NFL Insights) and has been explosive with the ball is in his hands, averaging 5.8 yards per carry and 8.3 yards per catch this season. Hill, who has eclipsed the 30+ rushing/receiving yards mark in every game, looked particularly explosive last week in Dallas. Expect the Ravens to turn to their change of pace back frequently throughout the game Sunday Night.

James Cook U 49.5 Rushing Yards (+110 ESPN Bet)

James Cook has looked great so far this season, averaging 63 rushing yards per game on 4.6 yards per carry. The Ravens rushing defense however has been even more impressive, ranking #1 in the NFL allowing only 50 rushing yards per game. Running backs alone have 43 carries for only 116 yards this season against the Ravens through the first 3 games, averaging 39 rushing yards a game on 2.7 yards per carry. If the Ravens offense continues to excel, the Bills will be forced into passing situations to keep up, further limiting Cooks rushing output. Fading opposing running backs has been profitable thus far, so were turning back to it this week.

Derrick Henry Anytime Touchdown Scorer (-160 ESPN Bet)

At this point, I would be remiss to leave this one out as long as the line stays around the -150/-180 mark. Henry has scored a touchdown in every game this season and is coming off his best game as a Raven, finding the end zone twice. The same explanation stands for including this prop: there will come a point in time where the Ravens will be in a goal to go situation, and they will give it to  Henry when that time comes. With the threat of Lamar pulling the ball, defenses do not have the ability to sell out to stop Henry. Lamar proved last week that he will punish you if you do that. I also like Henry 2+ touchdowns at +225 as the threat is always there for him to break a long one.
