Best NFL Sunday Night Football Player Prop Picks

Commanders rookie QB Jayden Daniels has been making waves since the start of the season, but perhaps his most stellar performance came just this past Sunday. En route to a comeback 36-33 win over the Philadelphia Eagles, the LSU product threw for five touchdowns!

On the flip side, but at the same position, we’ll see another rookie QB with the Falcons now starting Michael Penix after benching former starting QB Kirk Cousins. That sets us up for quite an interesting matchup, and with a potential playoff matchup, NFL SNF player prop picks may be the way to go instead. With that in mind, let’s take you through the two spots we found to attack for this NFC clash.

 

 

 

Falcons vs. Commanders Player Props: Michael Penix Under 200.5 Passing Yards (-115 at BetMGM Sportsbook)

Let’s get our Falcons vs. Commanders player props started with the Atlanta side of the matchup. We’ve already noted the rookie QB showdown, so it’s only fitting that we begin things there.

Penix Jr. got his first career start last weekend in what was an absolutely dominant 34-7 victory. Of course, it was largely carried by the defense, which scored multiple touchdowns themselves. That’s not too surprised given that the Giants are sitting at just 2-13 on the season and currently hold the #1 overall draft pick.

In other words, this is a massive step up in class for Penix Jr. So, this is not about us picking on a rookie, but more so relying on the Commanders defense. Specifically, Washington’s pass defense.

That unit has been among the biggest year-to-year turnarounds that most fans wouldn’t even think about. After allowing the absolute most passing yards per game just last season, they are now allowing the fourth-fewest! We’ll admit that they haven’t faced gunslingers week after week, but that’s not Penix Jr.’s calling card anyway.

Like Daniels for Washington, he’s known as a dual threat. That factor, along with the rest of the above, we’re kicking off our NFL SNF player prop picks with Michael Penix under 200.5 passing yards (-115 at BetMGM Sportsbook).

 

 

 

Falcons vs. Commanders Player Prop Bets: Zach Ertz Anytime TD Scorer (+190 at BetMGM Sportsbook)

Flipping to the Washington side of the matchup allows us to provide you with some incredible value for our NFL SNF player prop picks. We’re grabbing some plus-money odds by targeting Commanders TE Zach Ertz to find the end zone.

He’s primed and ready to do so after Daniels has said that he relies on the veteran, and after battling through some injuries, this is a get-right game for the former Eagle. Prior to these last two weeks in which he’s had some off games, Ertz had scored in three straight games.

Two of those came agaisnt the Tennessee Titans and his former team in Philly; those are the top two pass defenses in the NFL. Although the Falcons have had the luxury of facing the Giants and Las Vegas Raiders in their last two games, let’s not forget that they allowed FIVE touchdown passes just before that to the Minnesota Vikings.

In other words, Atlanta still has their struggles when facing playoff-caliber competition. Let’s also not forget that Daniels just threw five touchdown passes himself last week against the Eagles, which is again, a top-two pass defense in the NFL.

As fantastic as WR Terry McLaurin has been, we’re adding to our NFL SNF player prop picks with Zach Ertz to score an anytime touchdown (+XXX at BetMGM Sportsbook).
