• Aaron Rodgers longest pass completion Over 35.5 yards (-115 via Caesars) ⭐⭐⭐

⬆️ Aaron Rodgers Over 216.5 passing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐  

The NFL prop betting sites aren't expecting much from Rodgers on Thursday Night Football, and we're going to take advantage.

Rodgers - who's featured in our Steelers vs. Bengals player props - goes up against a defense surrendering 258 passing yards per game - the second-worst mark in the NFL. That’s a promising setup for both us and Rodgers, who appears to be heating up after throwing for 235 yards and two touchdowns in Week 6.

An X-factor tonight for Rodgers to go Over this number is the health of Bengals star defensive end Trey Hendrickson, who looks like a long shot to play on Thursday Night Football. With him out, expect Rodgers to have the time he needs to deliver the football. We'll also be playing this number as part of our Steelers vs. Bengals same game parlay.

Head to FanDuel for this wager, as the 216.5 passing yards at -114 betting odds (53.3% implied probability) are among the best you'll see.  A $10 bet will net you $8.77 in profit.

⬆️ Aaron Rodgers Over 1.5 passing touchdowns (-126) ⭐⭐⭐⭐  

Not only do the Bengals own one of - if not, the - worst secondaries in football, but their red-zone defense is almost just as putrid. 

Cincinnati is averaging 3.3 red-zone touchdowns against per game, the second-worst mark in the NFL. Teams are scoring at a 71.43% clip once they reach inside the 20, giving me all the optimism in the world that Rodgers can throw for at least two touchdowns tonight.

With -126 betting odds, which imply a 55.6% chance this wager will cash, we can't turn that down, especially since I'd price this bet closer to -135 for Thursday Night Football. A $10 bet will net you $7.94 in profits.

⬆️ Aaron Rodgers longest pass completion Over 35.5 yards  (-115)⭐⭐⭐  

If you're following along, you've realized a trend - the Bengals' secondary isn't very good. The Bengals are giving up 11.2 yards per pass completion this year, which ranks them 31st in football. 

For his part, Rodgers has gone over this number in three of five games this season, hitting DK Metcalf - who's featured in our anytime touchdown scorer predictions - for an 80-yard score in Week 5. He'll take his shots tonight, and I'll take a shot on his Over here.

All of our best sports betting apps have this play locked in at -115 betting odds. With an implied probability of 53.5%, you'll earn $8.70 in profit if this play cashes.
