Sunday Night Football in Week 6 features a desperate Cincinnati Bengals (1-4) team that is running out of time to get back on track after losing a shootout against the Baltimore Ravens last week. Meanwhile, the New York Giants (2-3) looked good in a road win against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 5.
We found some of the best SNF player prop and prop bets from NFL betting sites for the Bengals vs. Giants which includes Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Wan’Dale Robinson.
Giants rookie WR Malik Nabers has not cleared the concussion protocol and it’s unknown if he plays in Week 6. The Bengals are still waiting to make a decision about running back Zack Moss, who did not practice this week.
The Bengals are a -3.5 road favorite against the Giants at MetLife Stadium. The total is 48 over/under.
Best SNF Player Props: Touchdowns
The Giants are ranked #11 in scoring defense by allowing 20.8 ppg but ranked #19 in defensive DVOA. They are ranked #15 in pass defense and about to go up against the fifth-best pass offense in the league led by Joe Burrow. In overall scoring, the Bengals have the fourth-best scoring offense in the NFL that averages 28 ppg and they’re ranked #2 in offensive DVOA.
The Bengals have the second-worst scoring defense in the NFL that allows 29.0 ppg, which is good news for the low-scoring Giants who have the sixth-lowest scoring offense in the league at 17.8 ppg.
Regardless of the status of Nabers, we like Giants wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson to score an anytime touchdown at +160 odds, and you might as well consider him to score twice at +1100 odds. If the Giants expect to stay close to the Bengals, they’ll have to fling the ball.
PLAYER | FIRST TD | ANYTIME TD | 2+ TDs |
---|---|---|---|
Zack Moss | +550 | -115 | +500 |
Devin Singletary | +600 | +100 | +500 |
JaMarr Chase | +500 | -130 | +475 |
Chase Brown | +700 | +110 | +600 |
Malik Nabers | +800 | +100 | +650 |
WanDale Robinson | +1000 | +160 | +1100 |
Tee Higgins | +1100 | +175 | +1200 |
Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase scored five touchdowns this season, with all five occurring over the last three weeks. He notched two instances in which he scored two touchdowns in a game this season, so we’re eyeing Chase to score 2+ touchdowns at +475 odds.
Tee Higgins looks good after missing two games for the Bengals with a hamstring injury. We like him to score an anytime TD at +175 odds.
Bengals vs Giants Prop Bets: Passing
Burrow looked rusty in Week 1 and appeared to be playing through a wrist injury in Week 2. He looked like his old self in the last three games, completing 75% of his passes with 10 touchdowns. In an overtime loss against the Baltimore Ravens last week, he passed for 392 yards and five touchdowns in a shootout.
Burrow has 12 touchdowns this season and threw at least two touchdowns in his last four games. We like the over 1.5 touchdowns at most betting apps, even though you have to lay -150 odds.
PLAYER | PASSING PROP | OVER ODDS | UNDER ODDS |
---|---|---|---|
Joe Burrow | 262.5 Yards O/U | -110 | -110 |
Joe Burrow | 1.5 TDs O/U | -150 | +115 |
Joe Burrow | 0.5 INTs O/U | -115 | -115 |
Burrow has two games this season with at least 324 passing yards, and three games with 250+ yards. He is +250 odds to pass for more than 300 yards on SNF. He’s +750 odds for a monstrous game with over 350+ yards.
Burrow protects the ball and has only thrown two interceptions this season, but one in each of the last two games. We like under 0.5 interceptions as one of our best SNF player prop bets.
Bengals vs Giants Prop Bets: Receiving Yards
Oddsmakers are awaiting to hear about the status of Nabers before they set specific lines for wide receivers on the Giants. Without Nabers in the last two games, Robinson has seen an uptick in production.
PLAYER | PROP BET | OVER ODDS | UNDER ODDS |
---|---|---|---|
JaMarr Chase | 75.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -120 |
JaMarr Chase | 5.5 Receptions O/U | -120 | -110 |
Tee Higgins | 52.5 Yards O/U | -130 | +100 |
Tee Higgins | 4.5 Receptions O/U | +105 | -140 |
After a sluggish start, the Bengals’ offense is finally clicking, which is great news if you love wagering on player props involving Chase and Higgins.
Chase averages 98.6 yards, 5.8 receptions, and one touchdown per game. He tallied five touchdowns in his last three games, which includes two 100+ yard gems. He’s fresh off his best game of the season with 10 catches for 193 yards and two touchdowns. We like the over in receptions at 5.5, and yards at 75.5.
If you think Chase will pass the century mark once again, there’s a prop bet for 100+ yards that pays +190 odds. If you’re feeling frisky, Chase snagging 125+ yards pays out +425 odds.
Higgins appeared in only three games this season but scored two touchdowns. He averages six catches for 60.5 yards. He caught six-plus receptions in his last two games. We like the over in 4.5 receptions.
Higgins has yet to record a 100-yard game this season. His highest output was 83 yards in Week 4’s shootout against the Ravens. If your gut instinct says that this will be a monster week for Higgins, then you can fire away on a prop bet for 100+ receiving yards that pays +450.
Bengals vs Giants Prop Bets: Scoring Bands
The Giants are a +3.5 home dog. Many US betting apps spread prop bets that include scoring margins, also known as bands or windows.
These band bets offer better odds than a traditional moneyline bet, but your prediction must hit within a specific window. The Bengals are -190 as a moneyline favorite, but you can get them at +280 odds to win between 1-6 points. If you’re worried about covering by -3.5 and think they’ll win a very close game, then a prop bet on winning between 1-6 points is a worthy option, especially at +280 points.
If you think the Giants are going to win a close game, you can bet the point spread at +3.5 and “sprinkle” an additional wager on the moneyline. The current moneyline is +155, which pays out for any victory no matter what the score is. But, you can get the Giants at +360 odds to win between 1-6 points if you think it will be close by less than a touchdown.
SCORING MARGIN | ODDS |
---|---|
Bengals Win by 1-6 Points | +280 |
Giants Win by 1-6 Points | +360 |
Bengals Win by 7-12 Points | +375 |
Giants Win by 7-12 Points | +675 |
Bengals Win by 13-18 Points | +600 |
Giants Win by 13-18 Points | +1300 |
If you want to fire away on a prop bet that involves a convincing win of more than a touchdown, you can back the Bengals to win by 7-12 points for +375 odds. We like that scoring band as one of our best SNF bets.
If you think the Bengals will win by two touchdowns but between 13-18 points, that margin of victory pays out +600 odds.
