Gross Bombs: NFL Props for Week 16
Josh Gross
The New Orleans Saints will travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Buccaneers. This is a game that has huge divisional and playoff implications.
Both teams are below .500, but the winner of this game will remain in NFL South contention.
Tom Brady Under 267.5 Passing Yards
(-110, DraftKings)
Tom Brady has had a very up-and-down year both on and off the football field. Last week, the Bucs lost to the Cleveland Browns in overtime. Brady had multiple chances to drive the ball down the field but could not take advantage of it and ultimately lost in overtime. The New Orleans Saints are getting healthier every week and expect to have Marshon Lattimore and Pete Werner back for the game this Monday night. Additionally, the Buccaneers will be without all-pro tackle Triston Wirfs. This will be a huge loss, and it will be tough for Brady to activate the pocket with Wirfs. Tampa Bay will need to run the ball to have any chance to put up points against a solid Saints defense.
Chris Olave Over 4.5 Receptions
(-145, DraftKings)
Chris Olave is quickly becoming the No. 1 wideout on this team and showing the league why he was an early draft pick. He has had five receptions in each of the last two games, and I fully expect that to continue tonight. Andy Dalton is looking for Olave on a consistent basis.
Even in a 13-0 loss to the 49ers, Olave was targeted nine times and caught five of them. This shows even if the offense struggles, Olave will still be getting targets during the game. On the year, Olave is averaging over five receptions per game, so the value at 4.5 receptions is certainly there.
