A volatile position group gives us several profitable prop options this week.  Here are our Best QB Props for NFL Week 3.

There have been several interesting developments at the quarterback position over the first two weeks of the season. Between Joe Burrow looking human and the injuries to two starting quarterbacks, the prop market for props at the position has been a roller coaster ride. With that in mind, here are a few that capitalize on this volatility. 

Here are our top QB props for Week 3 (odds via Caesars Sportsbook, BetMGM, and DraftKings Sportsbook).

Best QB Props For Week 3

  • Derek Carr Over 35.5 Pass Attempts (-110 via DraftKings) ★★★★
  • Jimmy Garoppolo Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (-108 via Caesars) ★★★★
  • Cooper Rush Under 0.5 Interceptions (-110 via BetMGM) ★★★★★

Top QB Prop Predictions

Carr Over 35.5 Pass Attempts (-110) ★★★★

Derek Carr has surpassed this mark in both games to open the season, throwing 37 times against the Los Angeles Chargers and 39 times last week against the Arizona Cardinals. Last season, Carr had nine games in which he threw for more than this mark. 

This week, he faces the Tennessee Titans. Josh Allen attempted 38 passes last week against the Titans.  

Garoppolo Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (-108) ★★★★

With the injury to Trey Lance, Garoppolo resumed signal calling duties in San Francisco. Garoppolo entered the game late in the first quarter last week and threw a touchdown pass on his first full drive back under center. 

Garoppolo had six games last season that exceeded this total. The 49ers have yet to complete a touchdown pass to a wide receiver through their first two games. Expect that to change with Jimmy G at the helm once more.  

Rush Under 0.5 Interceptions (-110) ★★★★★

The Dallas Cowboys handed the defending AFC Champion Cincinnati Bengals their second loss of the season last week. Cooper Rush threw for 235 yards and a touchdown. More importantly, he was not picked off.  In fact, he has only thrown one interception in nine career appearances.

Over the first two weeks of the season, the New York Giants have yet to register an interception off of an opposing quarterback.
