Best Prop Bets for Eagles vs. Giants in NFL Week 14 (Hurts and the Eagles Run Wild Again)
By Josh Yourish
The Philadelphia Eagles have only slipped up once this season, but it was against the NFC East, and this week, they’ll try to keep their record with just one loss when they face the 7-4-1 New York Giants. Brian Daboll’s team is weak against the run, so could we get a repeat of the Eagles 363 rushing yards against Green Bay two weeks ago? Let’s get into the props for this one.
Best Props Bets for Eagles vs. Giants
- First Half Eagles -4 (+100)
- Jalen Hurts Over 9.5 Rush Attempts (-114)
- Isaiah Hodgins Over 2.5 Receptions (-113)
First Half Eagles -4 (+100)
The Eagles are the best first half team in the NFL and they’re almost always heading into halftime with the lead. They hung 21 on Tennessee in the first half last week and average 18.8 points in the first half for the year. That is bad news for the slow-starting Giants who are 28th in the NFL in first half scoring. They only average 8.3 points in the first half and second half magic has been the recipe for their winning record. They could come back if Philly lets off the gas pedal, but the Eagles will be up at the midway point.
Jalen Hurts Over 9.5 Rush Attempts (-114)
Hurts is one of the best rushing quarterbacks in the NFL and he’s got a real treat going up against New York. The Giants love to blitz and play man-to-man on the outside, so they’ll have their back turned when Hurts scrambles. Designed runs will have success too because New York allows 5.1 yards a carry. Hurts will run for a lot of yards and get a lot of chances to do it.
Isaiah Hodgins Over 2.5 Receptions (-113)
Who? Fair question, but Hodgins is emerging as the No. 2 target for Danny Dimes because of all the injuries to the receiving corps in New York. Last week Hodgins saw six targets and was second on the team with five grabs.
