While Week 7 doesn’t have the heavyweight fight like last week at Arrowhead, there are still plenty of juicy player props to comb through and find good NFL betting value.
Ahead of kickoff, I’m taking a look at a tight end in an excellent matchup (and a little revenge spot) plus a middling tailback set to benefit from Washington’s outright incompetence.
Check out my favorite NFL prop picks for Week 7 from around the league.

Joe Burrow’s wrist injury seemed like the end of the road for Cincinnati Bengals player props this year, but some dynamic offensive performances in December have put Ja’Marr Chase & Co. back on the NFL props radar.
With Jake Browning growing into the starting role and the Cincinnati playmakers stepping up, the Bengals enter Saturday’s matchup against the Minnesota Vikings in the thick of the AFC playoff picture, even if the latest NFL odds still view them as a longer shot.
Whether or not they reach the postseason may come down to what Chase does over the next four games. While the hosts have scored 34 points in back-to-back games in part because of a well-balanced passing game, he’s the man who can take this offense to another level…
The Atlanta Falcons have made a few splashy moves in recent days, but can they overcome a Baltimore Ravens team that’s been historically impressive during exhibition matchups?
Even without Lamar Jackson, our Falcons vs. Ravens predictions see the home side being too strong for the Falcons. Don’t miss our NFL picks for today’s preseason action.
Falcons vs Ravens prediction
My best betRavens -1 (-110 at bet365)
My analysisThe Baltimore Ravens have been inexplicably good during the preseason under John Harbaugh. Since he took over as head coach in 2008, Baltimore has won 74.6% of its preseason games.
However, they’ve dropped three straight preseason games dating back to last season and while they aren’t…
Throughout her long and occasionally controversial career with the United States women s soccer team, Hope Solo has developed a reputation for not holding back with her opinions.
Whether discussing coaching decisions or Zika, sharing her forthright views has often put Solo in the crosshairs of public opinion, and she added another talking point for her detractors on Friday after the USA suffered a shock loss to Sweden at Rio 2016.
In the aftermath of the defending champions quarter-final penalty shootout loss, Solo said she believed the best team had failed to win and that Sweden played like cowards .
We came back from a goal down. I m very proud of this team, she said. But I also think we played a bunch of cowards. The best team did not win today. I strongly…
The Uefa European Championships are underway at last and the first two games have been and gone. All in all it wasn’t a bad start to a tournament and the quality on show pointed towards the likelihood of Euro 2008 being an exciting and entertaining competition.
After a particularly dull but mercifully short opening ceremony the host nation Switzerland opened the tournament with a tough test against those perennial ‘outside bets’ the Czech Republic.
The first half wasn’t great as neither side took control of the game but the best chances fell to the Swiss. Chelsea keeper Petr Cech needed to be alert on more than one occasion to foil the Swiss captain Alexander Frei, who was looking lively.
However,…
Gareth Southgate has explained a lack of goal involvements and regular football led to the respective omissions of Jesse Lingard and Dele Alli from his latest England squad.
Lingard and Alli were two of the stars of England s run to the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup but have struggled for their best form of late.
The Manchester United attacker is without a goal or an assist in the Premier League in 2019, while Alli has been a relatively peripheral figure for Tottenham after recovering from a hamstring injury.
Liverpool s Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain has been similarly left out, with Southgate unable to ignore the claims of James Maddison and Mason Mount.
I think Jesse s had a difficult period. He s aware of that, the England manager told a Wembley news co…
While the fixture itself remains eagerly anticipated, the Derby della Madonnina on Sunday serves as another reminder that AC Milan and Inter are no longer among European football s dominant forces.
Milan were in danger of missing out on continental football until Gennaro Gattuso masterminded an eight-game unbeaten streak to put them back in the frame in seventh, while the ailing Inter have slipped from first to fourth after a run of two wins in 11 league fixtures.
It is a far cry from the 2010-11 season, when the clubs last finished as the top two in Serie A the Rossoneri beating their rivals, Champions League winners the previous campaign, to the Scudetto by four points.
To illustrate their decline, we take a look at how a combined XI from that campaign compares…

Coming out of the bye, the San Francisco 49ers are healthy and looking to play with all of their offensive pieces for the first time when they host the Los Angeles Chargers as 7-point favorites Sunday night.
The prop markets opened late on this game but there are still plenty of places to find some value, including the Chargers’ receivers, an Under on a San Francisco pass-catcher, and the best price of the season on a heavy-usage running back.
Here are my best player prop bets for Sunday Night Football, and check out our Chargers vs. 49ers picks and predictions for more.

The Detroit Lions will attempt to bounce back from a loss as they return to Ford Field to host the Denver Broncos tonight.
Despite coming off an upset defeat in Chicago, Detroit sits atop the NFC North with a 9-4 record heading into Week 15. Meanwhile, Denver won six of its last seven games to climb above .500 and won’t be a pushover here.
NFL odds have the Lions installed as 5-point home favorites for this Week 15 showdown with the Over/Under at 47.5. Here are my best free NFL picks for the Broncos vs. Lions on Saturday, December 16.
