NFL Player Props - Week 8

Chuba Hubbard Over Anytime TD (+150)

We have talked about Hubbard before and he has continued to deliver in 2024. He has a touchdown in four of his first seven games this year and remains the lone bright spot of a horrid Panthers offense. On top of that, he ranks fifth in rushing yards. Rookie Jonathan Brooks is ramping up to play and will surely take work from Hubbard but he looks to be a few weeks out from taking meaningful volume. Since week two, Chuba has seen nearly 20 touches a week and with that trend continuing, its great value with positive odds that he finds his way to the endzone once again. Even on one of the worst offenses in the league, someone still has to score. 

Davante Adams Over 58.5 Rec Yards (-115)

Adams saw nine targets in his first action reunited with Aaron Rodgers last week. He only converted those into 30 yards however. On a short week, Adams played 96% of the snaps against the Steelers. Expect that number to remain high and Rodgers to feed Adams against the Patriots 24th ranked passing defense in week 8. During their last season in Green Bay, Adams and Rodgers connected for an average of 97 yards per game. A full week in the offense and some renewed chemistry should get the Jets offense back on track and Adams over his yardage total. 

Geno Smith Over 246.5 Passing Yards (-115) 

The league's passing yardage leader gets a home bout against the Bills this week in a possible shootout (O/U 47). Yes Geno is leading the NFL in passing yards averaging 284 yards per game. New OC Ryan Grubb has taken Smith’s QB play to a level we have not seen from the veteran. Buffalo ranks fifth in total points which will demand a high scoring game from Seattle. DK Metcalf is questionable to play but Tyler Lockett and Jaxson Smith-Njigba are more than capable to carry a larger workload in what should be a negative game script against the 5-2 Bills. Geno has surpassed 284 yards in five of seven games. There should be high confidence he can get to at least 250 yards once again.
