Obviously there is some uncertainty in this, the last week of the NFL regular season,as to who is going to play and for how long; who is going to have to sit out with COVID and who has cleared protocol. As a result,we didn’t get all the player props we were looking for by “press time.” For example, we would have liked to see some numbers on Chase Edmonds or James Conner of the Arizona Cardinals to score a touchdown, since Conner has 16 TD’s this season and the opposing Seattle Seahawks have given up – by far – more receiving yardage to running backs than anyone else in the NFL. But we don’t know at this time if either guy is going to play, as coach Kliff Kingsbury is mindful that they need to be healthy for the playoffs. Time: Sunday, January 9 @ 1 PM ET TD Scoring Odds: +120 to score “Anytime” Touchdown Okay, we are taking a bit of a shot here because the Steelers have given up only two touchdowns to tight ends. But Andrews has 99 catches for 1276 yards and nine TD’s overall. And with Tyler Huntley starting at QB in place of Lamar Jackson, one must take into account what these two have done in those games where Huntley was spending considerable playing time. Andrews has had the ball thrown to him 40 times, with 35 catches (87.5% rate) and three TD’s. So in this critical game, Huntley will seek out the most dependable guy he’s got at his disposal. Time: Sunday, January 9 @ 4:25 PM ET TD Scoring Odds: -143 to score “Anytime” Touchdown The spotlight will be clearly on Kupp this week. He needs only 136 yards to break the all-time one-season record for receiving yards, which is held by Calvin Johnson. With 171 yards, he will reach 2000. And with twelve receptions, he will break Michael Thomas’ record of 149. He’s got 15 TD’s. So yes, they’ll throw it to him. And the Niners will give him some extra attention. But hasn’t that been the case all season? And isn’t that a little more difficult now that Odell Beckham, a big-play receiver with five TD catches in six games, is in the fold? Time: Sunday, January 9 @ 1 PM ET TD Scoring Odds: +250 to score “Anytime” Touchdown Between this season and last, Tannehill has had 96 carries, with 14 rushing touchdowns. That’s a touchdown every 6.85 carries, which is impressive. And his ratio of rushing yards to rushing touchdowns is 38.4-to-1. Also impressive. That having been said, the Texans have given up five rushing touchdowns to quarterbacks. And Tannehill, a good athlete who was, for a time, a wide receiver at Texas A&M, averaging 10.5 yards per scramble, which is highest in the NFL. Time: Sunday, January 9 @ 8:20 PM ET TD Scoring Odds: -143 to score “Anytime” Touchdown Justin Herbert has plenty of guys who can throw the ball to, but the Raiders did a pretty good job against them the first time these teams met. Jalen Guyton has made some spectacular long plays, but he hasn’t done it enough. The Raiders have allowed 21 touchdowns to running backs – 15 of them on the ground and six through the air. And Ekeler is a consummate dual threat. In the first meeting, he had one TD rushing and one receiving,with 117 rushing yards. Time: Sunday, January 9 @ 4:25 PM ET TD Scoring Odds: -143 to score “Anytime” Touchdown The Jets have played with some spirit lately, but fundamentally, Robert Saleh hasn’t had the magic touch with the stop unit that some optimistic fans were expecting. New York has allowed the most rushing touchdowns to running backs (22), as well as the second most receiving yards to running backs. So they are kind of a double non-threat on that side of the ball. In his first 13 games, Singletary scored just two TD’s. But he’s been on a bit of a hot streak, with four touchdowns in his last three games. Time: Sunday, January 9 @ 4:25 PM ET TD Scoring Odds: +700 to score “Anytime” Touchdown It’s not just that Wilson runs pretty well (10.3 yards per scramble), and that he may have to do it to preserve his own safety. It’s that if the rookie from BYU could score on a two-yard quarterback sneak, this time sent in from the sidelines, they’d probably be celebrating all off-season long.Mark Andrews Prop Picks for Week 19
