Best TNF Player Props ??? Patriots vs. Jets Prop Bets

The Thursday Night Football matchup in Week 3 is a classic battle between AFC East rivals with the New York Jets hosting the New England Patriots. We pinpointed several of the best TNF player props from US betting apps including your favorite players like Aaron Rodgers, Breece Hall, Garrett Wilson, Jacoby Brissett, and Rhamondre Stevenson.

The Jets must deal with another short week, but at least this scheduling quirk is happening at the start of the season. The Jets began their season on the road against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football in Week 1, and then played the Tennessee Titans in Nashville in Week 2. The Jets finally play their first home game of the season in Week 3, but it occurs in a short week against the Patriots on TNF.

The Buffalo Bills are in first place in the AFC East with a 2-0 record and the other three teams are 1-1. Both the Jets and Patriots smell blood in the water after the Miami Dolphins lost quarterback Tua Tagovailoa for an unknown amount of time due to a head injury and concussion.

Patriots vs Jets TNF TD Scorer Prop Odds

Oddsmakers installed the Jets as a favorite just under a touchdown at -6 or -6.5 in some sportsbooks. They anticipate a low-scoring game with a total of 37.5 over/under, which indicates there will not be a lot of touchdowns.
The Patriots have the fifth-best scoring defense in the NFL and allow only 16.5 points per game. The Jets had their defense hyped up in the preseason, yet they allow 24.5 points per game, which is tied for the seventh-worst scoring D in the league.

If you’re wondering where all the Patriots are for TNF player props, the oddsmakers at DraftKings Sportsbook did not have much faith in them aside from veteran running back Stevenson. He’s the only member of the Patriots to score more than one touchdown. Then again, the Patriots only have three offensive touchdowns this season and Stevenson tallied one rushing touchdown in each game. It seems wise to back Stevenson to score an anytime TD at +140 odds.
The running backs on the Jets combined for four touchdowns. Breece Hall has one rushing and one receiving touchdown. Rookie Brelon Allen has the same.
Garrett Wilson, the former Offensive Rookie of the Year, has yet to reach the end zone this season. Veteran Allen Lazard, a close confidant to Rodgers and former teammate with the Green Bay Packers, hauled in two touchdowns in Week 1.
Wilson is due for his first touchdown of the season, which is why we like him to score an anytime TD at +160.

Patriots vs Jets Best TNF Passing Props

The Patriots have the fourth-worst passing attack in the league by averaging only 122.5 air yards per game. Rodgers passed for 164 yards in Week 1 and 167 yards in Week 2, but tossed three touchdowns and just one interception. Brissett averages 135 passing yards per game and has only one touchdown pass.
Rodgers tossing two or more touchdowns only pays +130 yards, but you can take a flier on him at +550 odds for three or more touchdowns.

If you think Rodgers will light up the Patriots’ porous secondary, he is +125 odds to pass for 225 or more yards, +250 odds for 250 or more yards, and +500 odds for 275 or more yards.
On the flip side, bettors think the Jets will keep Brissett in check. He’s -200 odds to pass for 150 or more yards, almost even money at +110 odds for 175 or more passing yards, and +245 at 200 or more passing yards.

Best TNF Receiving Props – Patriots vs Jets

The Patriots have a stellar run defense but their secondary has issues. They are ranked sixth worst in the NFL by allowing 233 passing yards per game. The Jets are in the middle of the pack, and they allow 195 passing yards per game. They also have one of the best shut-down cornerbacks in the league in former Defensive Rookie of the Year Sauce Gardner, so don’t expect any of the Patriots’ wide receivers will get much action.

A tight end led the Patriots in receiving yards in each game so far this season. Austin Hooper contributed only 31 receiving yards, but that was the best effort in Week 1’s ugly 16-10 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in the season opener. There’s a good chance that starting tight end Hunter Henry will lead the team in receptions and yards once again. He led the Patriots with eight receptions for 109 yards in Week 2’s overtime loss against the Seattle Seahawks. In Week 3, Henry has a yardage total of 32.5 and we like the over at -115 odds.
The Jets love Hall because he’s a dual-threat running back. He has 14 targets and 12 receptions already with 91 total receiving yards and one touchdown reception. We’re eying his passing yards over at 29.5.
You can also fire away at a combined yardage player prop bet on TNF. We like Hall to head over 102.5 total yards from scrimmage (rushing and receiving) at -115 odds.

Best Patriots vs Jets Best Rushing Props for TNF

The Patriots have relied heavily on their rushing attack in their first two games, and the Jets were run heavy in Week 2’s victory against the Titans. The Patriots are ranked #4 in the NFL and average 177.5 rushing yards per game. The Jets rushed for only 68 yards in Week 1 but improved in Week 2 with 101 yards.

On the defensive side of the ball, the Patriots have the second-best rush defense that allowed 58 yards per game or only 116 rushing yards in total this season. The Jets are among the bottom 10 by allowing 155 rushing yards per game.
The Jets will have a tough time penetrating the Patriots’ stonewall rushing defense. That’s why we’re targeting Hall’s rushing yardage under at 67.5.
The Jets know they’ll have to dial up their run defense and stop the Patriots’ rushing attack if they want to win the battle of the trenches and prevail in Week 3. Expect a classic ground-and-pound effort from the Patriots, nonetheless. We’re eying Stevenson to surpass 66.5 rushing yards in this one.
