It's Week 8 in the NFL, and we've got another huge Sunday slate. With all major sports leagues in action today, there's so much to bet on. Let's get into our favorite Player Props for Week 8 in the NFL.
The halfway point of the season is quickly approaching and we're getting to the point where each game now means that much more for these guys.
Let's get into it best bets for Week 8.
D. Moore o56.5 Rec Yards (-120) via Bovada
Yes, we're going to bet something on this Bear's offense. DA BEARS are coming off their second win of the season, and first win under Rookie QB Tyson Bagent.
Yeah, it was Brian Hoyer and this beat up Raiders team, but a wins a win.
In their Week 7 win, Moore had 9 targets, reeling in 8 for 54 yards. The Raiders secondary ranks 5th in passing yards allowed. So in a tough matchup Moore saw just a 3.3 yard aDOT; compared to 11.02 aDOT on the season.
Now the Bears travel to LA to take on the last ranked secondary in the NFL. The Chargers are allowing, on average, 310 pass yards/game and have given up 12 TDs through the air.
The Chargers have given up big play after big play. Last week against the Chiefs they were tagged 4 times through the air for 25+ yards. They gave up 117 on 7 rec to Ceedee Lamb, and 8 catches fo 75 yards to Davante Adams with a back up QB.
All this over just the last 3 games. So today we're fading this secondary, and rolling with D.J. Moore. The target share should remain the same, and in a great matchup, expect that aDOT to come back up to normal.

J. Chase o84.5 Rec Yards (-114) via Bovada
Over the last 2 weeks, the Niners have given up the 2nd most receiving yards to WRs. They're coming off back to back losses, losing to PJ Walker and Prime Time Kirk.
In the last 4 games, Ja'Marr has seeing 13+ targets in 3 of games, but clearing this line just twice. In one career matchup with the Niners, he saw 8 targets, caught 5 for 77 yards.
The Bengals enter this game as 5.5 point dogs, after winning 3 of their last 4 games. They're travelling to sunny California in late October, and October is when Joe Shiesty comes out to play.
Over his L3 seasons, Burrow has averaged 300+ yards/game in October. He's completed 66% or more of his passes in three straight weeks after looking a little shakey to start the year.
Ja'Marr and Joey B show up to games like this with a little pep in their step, expect that same energy today down in the Bay.
J. Chase o84.5 Rec Yards (-114) via Bovada
A. Thielen o67.5 Rec Yards (-114) via Bovada
Thielen has been better than anyone could've predicted this year. He's quickly become Bryce Young's go to target, and his most dependable set of hands on the offense.
Adam Thielen is avaeraging 84.8 yards/game, and has cleared this number in 4 straight games, including 100+ in 3 of his L4.
This Texans secondary presents a tough matchup for Thielen but with 8+ targets in 4 straight, and 13+ targets in 3 of the L4, it's safe to say Bryce will get him the ball.
The Panthers enter the game as a 3.5 point dog at home, while still searching for their first win of the season.
Bryce is facing off against fellow rookie, and good friend, CJ Stroud; so there's definitely a little more than just the Panther's first win on the line.
