That opened the door for yours truly, and I didn't squander the opportunity. Jahmyr Gibbs, Joe MIxon, and Jerome Ford provided me with the RB trifecta, pushing me back to six above .500 for the season. The Nicks both had strong weeks, although Brinkerhoff was rolling his eyes over Justin Fields coming just two yards short of his rushing yards OVER (60.5). Still, Brinks struck gold with Jake Ferguson and Deebo Samuel, both of whom eviscerated their opponentstheir projections.Muse cashed in on the OVER for both Cooper Kupp and Jaylen Waddle, but fell short with Davante Adams in the Vikings-Raiders' three-point snoozer.

Let's get to it. Below we will detail our 12 favorite SuperDraft player props for this weekend's NFL games, with our highest-confidence picks listed first. Good luck, happy holidays, and enjoy what should be an entertaining and lucrative Week 15! MORE: Jahmyr Gibbs, RB, Lions vs. Broncos OVER 53.5 rushing yards OVER 85.5 rushing + receiving yards () This is our second straight week choosing Gibbs as one of our player prop locks. Dan Campbell and the Lions have clearly figured out by now that the rookie gives Detroit its best chance to succeed, as Gibbs finally out-snapped and out-carried David Montgomery. The snap count was the most glaring, with the rook seeing 41 offensive snaps compared to the vet's 23. Gibbs ended up with 79 all-purpose yards and a TD in a losing effort to the Bears. Newsflash (in case you have been living under a rock the past 14 weeks): Denver sucks at stopping the run. No team has surrendered more rushing yards to RBs (124.7 per game), and only five teams have given up more than the Broncos' 40.5 opposing RB receiving yards per game. The Broncos have improved mightily since earlier this season, but that's not saying much when you consider Raheem Mostert, De'Von Achane, and the 'Fins put 70 on them three months ago. For the Lions to win games, theyestablish the run and get Gibbs involved in the pa sing game early and often. This could serve as a get-right game for Campbell's squad, which desperately wants to reharne s the momentum it felt earlier in the season. Go with Gibbs for the win! MORE WEEK 15 BETTING: | | Ru sell Wilson, QB, Broncos at Lions OVER 27.5 rushing yards() The Lions struggle with giving up rushing yards to mobile quarterbacks. They also erase the traditional running game well. Wilson tends to run more in shootouts or negative game scripts and Detroits downfield defensive scheming will create some space for him to take off and run well multiple times. He should do this in about 5 attempts throughout the game, from mostly scrambles but maybe one or two designed runs. Cooper Kupp, WR, Rams vs. Commanders OVER 75.5 receiving yards () Fresh off an eight-catch, 115-yard, one-TD showing in the Rams overtime lo s in Baltimore, Kupp has started looking like his normal self again and at a very opportune time for fantasy owners and player prop bettors. The Stafford-to-Kupp connection shouldn't suffer many hiccups against a lackluster Commanders pa s defense ranked 32nd in drop-back EPA (0.211). If Kupp sees close to his season average of nearly eight targets per game, hes in a position to go OVER his receiving yardage prop for a second straight week. Jake Ferguson, TE, Cowboys @ Bills OVER 42.5 receiving yards() The Cowboys are taking their show on the road, a place that hasnt been too kind to them in 2023. Their home dominance is well-documented, with a 7-0 record and per-game average of 39.9 points at AT&T Stadium. But on the road, Dallas has seen its record drop to 3-3 and its average scoring output plummet to just 23.7 PPG. Dak Prescott and the Boys love to air it out, but a rainy December Sunday in Buffalo could complicate matters. That leaves Ferguson to roam underneath and over the middle, an area that the Bills have struggled to defend since losing Matt Milano for the year. The weather could further hinder Dak and his explosive wideouts, meaning Fergie should see even more opportunities than usual. The breakout tight end should easily go over a number that hes bested by almost 30 yards in two consecutive weeks. MORE: T.J. Hockenson, TE, Vikings at Bengals OVER 53.5 receiving yards (Piva) Hockenson remains one of the main focal points of the Vikings' offensive attack, with or without Justin Jefferson (all signs point to J-Jettas playing). With Alexander Mattison banged up and set to mi s this one with an ankle injury, the stud tight end might be even more busy than usual (he has seen 116 targets in 13 games, good for 8.9 per game). Even better, the Bengals have been abysmal against opposing tight ends all season, surrendering 71.9 yards Jonah Jackson Jersey per game to the position. Just look at the damage TEs have inflicted on Cincy since Week 8: Wk (Opp) Player Catches - Yards 8 (SF) George Kittle 9 -149 9 (BUF) Dalton Kincaid 10 - 81 10 (HOU) Dalton Schultz 4 - 71 11 (BAL) Mark Andrews (hurt) 2 - 23 12 (PIT) Pat Freiermuth 9 - 120 13 (JAX) Evan Engram 9 - 82 14 (IND) Will Mallory 5 - 46 AVG Seven players: 6.8 RPG - 81.7 YPG That's some mouth-watering stuff if you're a Hockenson owner in fantasy or a Hock investor in the prop market. We're all-in on the burly tight end this weekend in what should be a more fortuitous weekend now that the Josh Dobbs experiment has ended. Nick Mullens looked Hock's way plenty once he replaced Dobbs against Vegas, and the Vikes ended up with a W. Here's hoping their connection continues and they nab us a W on Saturday! DAndre Swift, RB, Eagles at Seahawks OVER 58.5 rushing yards (Iyer) Were marrying a different Swift and a different Kelce this week (sorry, Tony Romo). Eagles fans will get their wish of the team running the ball in an either even or positive game script in Seattle against a run defense thats been absolutely reeling since midseason. Swift doesnt catch many pa ses, so he needs to get it done on the ground and he can get there, boosted by a few nice chunk runs living up to Levi Onwuzurike Jersey his last name. Bijan Robinson, RB, Falcons @ Panthers OVER 62.5 rushing yards (Musial) Bijans coming off two games in which he averaged fewer than 3.5 yards per carry on 28 rushes, but his efficiency should spike against a porous Panthers run defense. Carolina has been the least efficient run D by a wide margin relative to its rush EPA numbers, and a potential positive game script gives Bijan a strong chance for 15-plus carries. Although he totaled just 10 carries in Atlantas Week 1 win over Carolina, Bijan averaged 5.6 yards per rush a good sign for his odds of reaching 63-plus rushing yards this time around. Puka Nacua, WR, Rams vs. Commanders OVER 66.5 receiving yards (Brinkerhoff) Despite the return of Cooper Kupp, the rookie Nacua isnt going anywhere in this Rams pa sing attack. Since Matthew Stafford took over in 2021, Kupp averaged around 11.1 targets a game through the first two seasons. That number has ticked down to around 7.6 this year, indicating that Nacuas emergence has signaled almost a changing of the guard. The rookie is still seeing 8.3 targets a game and has gone over this number in three of the Rams' past four games. Against a weak Commanders defense that continues to get shredded by WRs allowing the most yards to the position (198.5) Nacuas Hollywood story should continue in a big way. DK Metcalf, WR, Seahawks vs. Eagles OVER 62.5 receiving yards (Piva) Over the past five weeks, Metcalf has finally looked healthy again. Despite Seattle having to pivot from the banged-up Geno Smith to Drew Lock multiple times, D.K. has dominated like only D.K. can dominate. During his sizzling five-game stretch, Metcalf has averaged 4.5 catches, 82 receiving yards, and one TD per game. Now he draws a home game against an Eagles squad that has surrendered the most per-game catches (15.8) and receiving yards (193.8) to wideouts on the season. Lock this in and fade the oft-inconsistent Tyler Lockett while you're at it. David Montgomery, RB, Lions vs. Broncos OVER 65.5 rushing yards (Iyer) This number seems far too low based on Montgomery and Jahmyr being able to smash the best matchup for running backs in fantasy. The Broncos have given up an average of 144 rushing yards per game, easily the worst mark in the league. Monty and Gibbs will take turns getting bursts and they should split the workload close to 50-50 as Detroit recommits to the run and takes pre sure off Jared Goff in a tough must-win matchup. Dak Prescott, QB, Cowboys @ Bills UNDER 279.5 pa sing yards (Musial) Daks pa sing yards OVERs have been money this season, as the MVP candidate has gone OVER in nine of 13 games. However, relatively speaking, were expecting a down game from the Cowboys' offense in Buffalo this week. On top of going against a stout Bills defensive line, the forecasts in Buffalo on Sunday call for rain, which likely hinders Rayne Dakotas chances of reaching 280-plus pa sing yards. Brandon Aiyuk, WR, 49ers @ Cardinals OVER 66.5 receiving yards (Brinkerhoff) Aiyuk can be a hit-or-mi s receiver in what is a deep San Francisco offense. But the matchup this week is one that hes already knocked out of the park once, collecting six catches for 148 yards against the Cardinals way back in Week 4. Plenty has changed since then, but Aiyuks combination of speed and route-running remains a constant. This is a leaky Arizona secondary that has been susceptible to big plays. The Niners have their sights set on the No. 1 seed in the NFC, and this red-hot pa sing attack isnt slowing down anytime soon. Aiyuk should be heavily involved once again.
