Best Same Game Parlay for Eagles vs. Buccaneers (Trust Tom Brady to Keep Throwing)
By Ben Heisler
It's been an eventful day for bettors interested in wagering on the Philadelphia Eagles vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After opening as high as 9.5-point favorites, the line has ticked all the way down to -7, with the total dropping 2.5 points down from 49 to 46.5.
If that makes you a bit apprehensive of jumping on either team's side, as well as the over/under, fear not! BetSided's Brian Giuffra has three of his favorite prop bets you can jump on ahead of this afternoon's matchup.
Using WynnBET’s Build Your Own Bet feature, here is a same game parlay I think pays off a very solid value at odds of +750, turning a $25 wager into a win of $187.50.
Best Same Game Parlay Picks for Eagles vs. Bucs
- Philadelphia Eagles +10.5
- Eagles vs. Buccaneers Under 51.5 Total Points
- Jalen Hurts 40+ Rushing Yards
- Tom Brady 255+ Passing Yards
- Tom Brady 1+ Interceptions
Philadelphia Eagles +10.5
No Leonard Fournette as well as swirling winds at Raymond James Stadium make this a bit tricky for bettors now that the line has gone all the way back down to Buccaneers -7.
By adjusting the line up to Eagles +10.5, we have a little more breathing room. Bettors can back the team where the sharp money is going, as well as build in a two possession opportunity to cover that comes in a full point ahead of the original number.
Eagles vs. Buccaneers Under 51.5 Total Points
Wind plays a much higher factor in determining over/under results than that of cold weather or rain, and with the forecast calling for 15-20 mph sustained winds with 30 mph gusts or higher, that plays right into another UNDER bet coming through.
The current total is set at 46.5, but we can adjust using WynnBET's "Build Your Own Bet" option to set the total at whatever number we like as part of our "same game parlay." Getting the number above 51, a very common total result again builds in some more wiggle room for our wager.
Jalen Hurts 40+ Rushing Yards
Hurts' actual prop number is set at 56.5, so we have more than 20 yards of extra space for Hurts to operate. The Bucs allow 23.4 rushing yards per game; fourth-most in the NFL despite the league's best defense vs. running backs.
Hurts rushed 10 times for 44 yards the last time these two teams played, and with weather conditions likely to be poor, he'll be on the move throughout the afternoon.
Tom Brady 255+ Passing Yards
Nobody in the NFL has thrown more passes or more passing yards than Tom Brady; who averages 312 per game.
I get that the weather plays a major factor in this game, but the Bucs have been the league's heaviest passing offense all season. Factor in no Leonard Fournette or Ronald Jones, and the Bucs will have to rely on going through the air even more-so than in the past.
Ke'Shawn Vaughn, Le'Veon Bell, and Giovani Bernard all excel in their ability to catch passes out of the backfield. Brady will still crank out plenty of yards through the air, even if his average depth of target falls much shorter than what we're accustomed to seeing.
Tom Brady 1+ Interceptions
If you're going to attempt the most throws in the NFL, the likelihood of getting picked off once in a while always goes up, even if you're Tom friggin Brady.
Despite his league-leading 43 touchdowns, Brady also threw for 12 interceptions for the second consecutive season, and will be without Chris Godwin as a safety blanket in the middle of the field.
With windy weather and different personnel groups on the field, at least one interception is very much in play.
