NFL 'SNF' Week 7: Two touchdown bets for Eagles vs. Dolphins
Boy, what a primetime matchup we've got on "Sunday Night Football" this week. The 5-1 Philadelphia Eagles will host the 5-1 Miami Dolphins in a crucial, cross-conference matchup, and with the total set at a hefty 51.5, there's plenty of value on the board in terms of anytime touchdown bets.
Let's target two touchdown prop bets and gun for some juicy payouts for "SNF" Week 7.
Jaylen Waddle (+155 DraftKings)
All the hype about Miami's offense is focused on Tyreek Hill, and for good reason. Hill leads all NFL wide receivers in yards (814) and touchdowns (six) through six weeks, but Waddle has been just as involved as the Cheetah in the red zone.
In fact, Waddle has more targets inside the 10 (six) than Hill (five) this season. Both speedy receivers have scored two red-zone touchdowns so far. Yet, Hill is -125 to score a touchdown, while Waddle is much cheaper at +155.
Even if it's not inside the 20, Waddle has the speed to burn Philly's secondary for a long score at any point. We're taking a chance on the better price here.
Jalen Hurts 2+ touchdowns (+430 FanDuel)
The Eagles offense will be able to move the ball at will in this game. Miami's defense ranks 27th in DVOA through six weeks, and it was ripped apart by the two above-average offenses it played.
The Los Angeles Chargers put up 34 points and 433 yards of offense in Week 1, and the Buffalo Bills put up 48 points and 414 yards of offense in Week 4. Philadelphia should be able to find its way to the red zone multiple times in this game, and Hurts is by far the team's favorite weapon near the goal line.
Hurts already has five rushing touchdowns this season. In what should be the easiest matchup for the Eagles to move the football this year, Hurts could easily find the end zone more than once.
