To wrap up Week 14 of the 2020 season, we have an AFC North divisional battle between the 7-5 Baltimore Ravens and 9-3 Cleveland Browns. Both teams need a win to solidify their playoff position. A win by the Browns would all but lock up a playoff spot while a loss for the Ravens could cost them a Wild Card spot. With so much on the line, expect a competitive game tonight.
The team’s fan base and fantasy football players will have their eyes glued to the game, watching every play with the utmost attention. For gamblers, their only rooting interest is whatever will lead to money in their pocket. However, which bets should they place? Here are my five favorite prop bets for tonight’s game.

Mark Andrews to Score an Anytime Touchdown (+140)
After missing the last two games because of Covid-19, Andrews will make his return tonight. That’s just in time as he takes on one of the worst teams in the league defending tight ends. The Browns have given up at least one receiving touchdown to tight ends in over half their games this season, including four straight. Meanwhile, Andrews has six touchdowns this season, including one when he last took the field in Week 11. Andrews had his best game of the year in the Week 1 matchup against the Browns, catching two touchdowns, so don’t be surprised if he has another two touchdown game tonight.
Jarvis Landry Over 4.5 Receptions (-124)
Over the last two weeks, Landry has been one of the best wide receivers in the league, totaling 16 receptions on 21 targets for 205 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Furthermore, Landry is averaging 4.5 receptions per game this season. Meanwhile, the Ravens have struggled to slow down wide receivers over the last two weeks, giving up an average of 23 receptions per game to the position. Landry had five receptions in the Week 1 matchup, and with limited weapons in the passing game for the Browns, Landry should hit the over on this prop before the start of the fourth quarter.
Lamar Jackson Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (+155)
Last week Jackson came off the Covid-19 list to throw two touchdown passes against the Dallas Cowboys despite missing Andrews and only 17 pass attempts. However, Jackson’s best game of the season came in Week 1 against the Browns, when he threw for a season-high 275 yards and three touchdowns. Meanwhile, the Browns have given up two or more passing touchdowns in 67 percent of their games, including three straight. Jackson had two or more passing touchdowns in three of his last five games and should easily throw two or more in this game.
Nick Chubb Over 78.5 Rushing Yards (-110)
Since returning from a knee injury, Chubb has been unstoppable, averaging 116 rushing yards per game, recording at least 80 in every contest. Furthermore, Chubb is averaging 100 rushing yards per game and has at least 80 in all but one game he has finished this season. Meanwhile, the Ravens have struggled to slow down running backs over the last four weeks, giving up an average of 113.5 rushing yards per game to the position. Over those four games, running backs have 99 or more rushing yards in three of them. The Browns’ offense flows through Chubb and the running game, and he should have no problem rushing for 80 or more yards for the fifth week in a row.
Mark Andrews Over 3.5 Receptions (-143)
This prop feels like taking candy from a baby. Andrews is averaging 3.5 receptions per game this season and has 12 over his last two games. Furthermore, Andrews caught five of his targets in the Week 1 matchup against the Browns. Meanwhile, the Browns have had no answer for tight ends this season, giving up an average of 5.8 receptions per game to the position. They have given up four or more receptions to tight ends in six straight games. Expect Andrews to have his second game this season with five or more receptions against the Browns.
