Best NFL Prop Bets for Colts vs. Titans in Week 7 (Trust Henry off his Bye and Fade Taylor off his Injury)

It’s very early, but with the Indianapolis Colts at 3-2-1 and the Tennessee Titans at 3-2 this game could be for the division title in Week 7. Yes, it’s very early, but if the Titans sweep the season series from the Colts then it’ll be an uphill battle for Matt Ryan and Indy. 

With so much on the line, and the Titans as only 2.5 point favorites it might be hard to make a play on either side. That doesn’t mean we don’t have some very juicy props out there for this game. Here are a few of the props bets that I like and I’ll be betting on Sunday. 

Best Props for Colts vs. Titans

• Jonathan Taylor Under 65.5 Rush Yards (-115)
• Derrick Henry Over 88.5 Rush Yards (-114)
• Matt Ryan Over 22.5 Completions (+100)

Jonathan Taylor Under 65.5 Rush Yards (-115)

Taylor certainly hasn’t lived up to the hype of the No. 1 pick in most fantasy drafts. He has only one 100 yard rushing game in the four that he played prior to his ankle injury and he might be limited by that injury this week.

I like to fade players in their return from injury because you never know if they’ll make it through the entire game or if they’ll be on a limited snap count. 

Derrick Henry Over 88.5 Rush Yards (-114)

It’s almost Derrick Henry season.

Everyone was ready to write him off after his injury last season and the insane amount of carries he’s had over the past few years. Now, they’re jumping on his slightly decreased stats early in the year and ignoring the fact that he does this every season. Henry almost never starts a season off fast, but once the weather starts to turn and there is a chill in the air, Henry goes off. He ran the ball 28 times for 102 yards, two weeks again, before their bye and if he gets that type of volume, he will easily eclipse this total. 

Matt Ryan Over 22.5 Completions (+100)

The Colts seem to have figured out their offense with Jonathan Taylor out. They’ve relied on short passes from Matt Ryan to move the ball and last week he completed 42 of 58 pass attempts for 389 yards. He has only been under this total one time this season and last time they faced Tennessee, he completed 27 passes.
