Scotty Miller Over 46.5 Receiving Yards (-112)
Once again, the Buccaneers will be without Chris Godwin this week, forcing Miller to step up as the number two wide receiver in Tampa Bay. However, this number is too low. Miller has 73 or more receiving yards in more than half his games this season, averaging 52.1 yards per game. Meanwhile, the Giants have struggled to slow down wide receivers, giving up an average of 172.7 yards per game to the position. Furthermore, James Bradberry will spend a lot of the game covering Mike Evans, opening up even more targets to go Millers’ way on tonight.
Daniel Jones Over 0.5 Interceptions (-195)
While this is a heavy price to pay, it is well worth it. Jones has played better over the last two weeks, throwing for three touchdowns and rushing for 166 yards. However, he is still a turnover machine. He is averaging one interception per game this season and has at least one in six of his seven games. Meanwhile, the Buccaneers’ defense has been a quarterback’s worst nightmare. They are averaging 3.8 sacks and 1.3 interceptions per game this season. Furthermore, the Buccaneers have at least one interception in each of their last six games. Expect Jones to throw at least one, if not two, interceptions against the Buccaneers.
Leonard Fournette Over 45.5 Rushing Yards (-112)
After missing the last three games with an injury, Fournette returned last week against the Las Vegas Raiders, rushing 11 times for 50 yards. Furthermore, he played on 56 percent of the snaps compared to 43 percent for Ronald Jones. Meanwhile, the Giants have given up at least 59 rushing yards to running backs in every game this season. With the game expected to be a blowout, look for the Buccaneers to give both Fournette and Jones plenty of carries against a weak Giants run defense.
Wayne Gallman Over 2.5 Receptions (+125)
Devonta Freeman will miss tonight’s game with an ankle injury, giving Gallman the featured role at running back. Last week, against the Philadelphia Eagles, Gallman caught all five of his targets for 20 yards. The Buccaneers have one of the best defenses in the league and should have no trouble getting pressure on Jones, especially with the Giants’ struggling offensive line. With pressure in his face all night long, expect Gallman to see plenty of screen and dump off passes come his way.
Tom Brady Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (-177)
Even with Godwin out this week, Brady has plenty of weapons in the passing game between Evans, Miller, and Rob Gronkowski. Despite dealing with injuries to his receiving core all season long, Brady has at least two passing touchdowns in five of seven games this season. Furthermore, Brady is averaging three passing touchdowns per game over his last four outings. Meanwhile, the Giants have given up at least two passing touchdowns in more than half their games this season. Don’t be surprised if Brady hits the over on this prop before halftime.
