The Baltimore Ravens (6-3) host the Cincinnati Bengals (4-5) on Thursday Night Football in Week 10. These two teams combined for 79 points in Week 5 when the Bengals lost by three points at home. This AFC North battle is must-see TV because oddsmakers anticipate another shootout between Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson.
If you’re looking for the best prop bets on Thursday Night Football at top Hockey betting sites, we’re focusing on Jackson, Burrow, Derrick Henry, Ja’Marr Chase, Zay Flowers, and Chase Brown.
The Ravens are the betting favorite at -6, and the points total is 52.5 over/under. The high-flying Ravens lead the NFL in scoring with 31.4 points per game and they’re ranked #1 in offensive DVOA. The Bengals (26.2 ppg) are ranked #17 in scoring and #9 in offensive DVOA.
On defense, the Ravens allow 24.3 ppg and they’re ranked #14 in defensive DVOA. The Bengals allow 25.2 points per game, and ranked #25 in defensive DVOA.
Best TNF Player Props: Touchdowns
These squads combined for ten touchdowns in their first game, so individual player props will be popular on TNF. The Ravens have the best rushing attack in the NFL thanks to running back Derrick Henry (13 total touchdowns). It’s not surprising to see that Henry is the consensus favorite to score the first touchdown (+300 odds), an anytime touchdown (-205), and multiple touchdowns (+205).
Henry scored at least one touchdown in every game this season, and has four games with multiple touchdowns. We like him to reach the end zone at least twice as one of our best TNF prop bets. DraftKings also offers a special prop bet where Henry scores one rushing and one receiving touchdown at +500 odds.
After a slow start, tight end Mark Andrews scored four touchdowns in the last four games. Andrews now leads the Ravens with the most touchdown receptions. We like Andrews to score an anytime touchdown at +195 odds as another one of our best TNF prop bets.
Wide receiver Zay Flowers is coming off a huge week with two touchdowns in Week 9. Flowers is +110 odds to score an anytime touchdown.
| PLAYER | FIRST TD ODDS | ANYTIME TD ODDS | 2+ TD ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Derrick Henry | +300 | -265 | +205 |
| Chase Brown | +700 | -130 | +450 |
| Zay Flowers | +850 | +110 | +750 |
| Ja'Marr Chase | +850 | -120 | +500 |
| Lamar Jackson | +950 | +160 | +1000 |
| Tee Higgins | +1300 | +160 | +1200 |
| Mark Andrews | +1300 | +195 | +1700 |
| Dionate Johnson | +1400 | +220 | +2000 |
| Mike Gesicki | +1900 | +240 | +2000 |
Burrow threw five touchdowns against the Ravens in Week 5. Wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins caught two each in that game. Higgins continues to nurse a quad injury and hasn’t played in a couple of weeks. If Higgins misses TNF, look to back Chase to score multiple touchdowns at +500 odds.
Tight end Mike Gesicki is fresh off his best game of the season. He has two touchdowns this season, but tallied both last week. If Higgins is out, take a flier on Gesicki to score an anytime touchdown at +240 odds.
Second-year running back Chase Brown leads the Bengals with four rushing touchdowns, which he scored over the last six games. He’s the top member of the Bengals on the board to score the first touchdown, an anytime touchdown, and two or more touchdowns.
Consider building a same-game parlay with Henry, Flowers, Chase, and Gesicki scoring an anytime touchdown. That exact parlay pays out +1700 odds at DraftKings. A three-way touchdown parlay with Henry, Flowers, and Chase pays out +450 odds.
Bengals vs Ravens Prop Bets: Passing
Jackson averages 264.3 passing yards per game for the Ravens this season. His TNF total is 237.5 yards, which he exceeded seven out of nine games including each of the last five. We love Jackson to pass for more than 233.5 yards as one of our top TNF prop bets.
Jackson passed for a season-high 348 yards against the Bengals and added four touchdowns. If you think Jackson will light up the Bengals again, he’s +450 odds to pass for more than 300 yards.
Jackson has three games with three or more touchdowns this season, and all three occurred in the last five games. Jackson completing 3+ touchdowns will pay out +340 odds.
| QUARTERBACK | PASSING PROP | OVER ODDS | UNDER ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Joe Burrow | 264.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
| Joe Burrow | 1.5 TDs O/U | -135 | +105 |
| Lamar Jackson | 233.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
| Lamar Jackson | 1.5 TDs O/U | -120 | -110 |
Burrow averages 249.3 yards per game, and his total is 264.5 yards which he exceeded only twice this season. One of those instances was against the Ravens in Week 5. Burrow completed 30-of-39 passes for 392 yards and five touchdowns in their first meeting.
The Ravens have the worst passing defense in the NFL that allows 280.9 air yards per game. For alternative passing yards, Burrow has a prop bet for 300-plus yards at +220 odds. If you think he’ll have another huge game against the Ravens, Burrow to pass for more than 325 yards will pay out +425.
We also like Burrow to toss three or more touchdowns at +295 odds. He achieved that feat three times this season, including five touchdowns against the Ravens
Bengals vs Ravens Prop Bets: Rushing
Henry leads the NFL with 168 carries for 1,052 yards in his first season with the Ravens. He’s gashing opponents for 6.3 yards per carry, and averages 116.9 yards per game.
In their first meeting, the Bengals limited Henry to 92 yards. His total for their second game is 92.5, and he rushed for more than 92 yards in six instances.
Henry has five games with 100-plus yards. If Henry rushes for more than 100 yards on TNF, that prop bet will pay +115 odds. He has four games with 125-plus yards, and that prop bet will pay out +280.
Jackson is the top rushing quarterback in the league, and he averages 56.1 rushing yards per game. Jackson’s TNF total is 49.5 yards, which he exceeded five times. In their first meeting, Jackson rushed 12 times for 55 yards.
| PLAYER | RUSHING PROP | OVER ODDS | UNDER ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Derrick Henry | 92.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
| Chase Brown | 58.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
| Lamar Jackson | 49.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
The Ravens have the best run defense in the NFL that allows only 75.7 yards per game, so Brown will be running into a brick wall most of the game. He has a total of 58.5 yards on TNF, which he exceeded only three times. He rushed 12 times for 46 yards against the Ravens in Week 5. We like Brown’s under as one of our best TNF prop bets.
Bengals vs Ravens Prop Bets: Receiving
Chase is second in the NFL with 717 receiving yards, and he leads the Bengals with 79.7 yards per game this season. Chase recorded a season-high 10 catches on 12 targets for 193 yards against the Ravens. He’s been held under 55 yards three times since that high-water mark. He has a total of 79.5 on TNF, which he went over only three times, but has not done so in his last four games.
Even though Gesicki is a tight end, he’s second on the Bengals in receptions (30) and yards (353) mostly because Higgins missed four games. Gesicki averages 39.2 yards per game, but his total in TNF is 43.5 yards. If Higgins is out, you should hammer his over. He has four games with more than 47 yards including each of his last two games.
| PLAYER | RECEIVING PROP | OVER ODDS | UNDER ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ja'Marr Chase | 79.5 Yards O/U | -110 | -110 |
| Zay Flowers | 59.5 Yards O/U | -110 | -110 |
| Mike Gesicki | 43.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
Flowers is ranked #5 in the NFL with 654 receiving yards. He leads the Ravens with 46 receptions and 67 targets. He averages 72.7 yards per game, yet his TNF total is only 59.5 yards. We love Flowers to exceed that total.
Flowers recorded five games this season with at least 90 yards. He tallied at least 100-plus yards in four out of his last five games, including 111 yards against the Bengals in Week 5. We’re also eyeing a prop bet where he exceeds 100 yards at +500 odds.
