NFL Prop Bets Week 15

Stefon Diggs Any Time Touchdown (+105)

In what will more than likely be the top game of the weekend, the Dallas Cowboys travel north to face the Buffalo Bills at Orchard Park.

The Bills return home after back-to-back games on the road against last year's Super Bowl participants, while Dallas will be departing "Jerry World" for the first time since prior to Thanksgiving (Nov. 19). This rare regular season meeting of Buffalo and "Big D" would typically feature a brother-on-brother matchup, but only Stefon Diggs is playing right now -- Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs (ACL) has been out of action since Week 3.

The older Diggs has continued to do what he does this year. Through 13 games played, Stefon once again leads the team with 87 receptions (T-7th in the NFL), 993 receiving yards and 8 scores (T-4th). He's clearly Josh Allen's go-to target.

I like Diggs to find the end zone at home this weekend against Dallas. He has scored 37 total touchdowns since joining the Bills, 19 (51.4%) of which have come at home. Considering Buffalo has ramped up their scoring production to 28.7 PPG over their past three contests, Diggs might be nearing a major performance.

As noted, Diggs is in the top-five TD scorers for wide receivers this season. His aforementioned 37 total scores since 2020 also lands fourth overall through that span. Knowing that, I am eager to fire in this market at +105 odds.

Dak Prescott Under 275.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Staying in that same Dallas-Buffalo game, quarterback Dak Prescott has another arduous challenge ahead. Admittedly, the Mississippi State alum is playing the best football of his career. Prescott currently leads the NFL in passing TDs (28) while showing only six interceptions. As such, Dallas has shined to a 10-3 record.

At FanDuel Sportsbook, Prescott is a deserved frontrunner for the AP Most Valuable Player award. He shows +150 odds, per the NFL MVP odds at FanDuel Sportsbook (having started the season with a 16-to-1 label). Due to that notoriety, combined with the fact that Prescott recently performed well in a primetime win over the rival Philadelphia Eagles, I think his yardage bar is set a little high for the upcoming weekend.

Currently, Prescott's passing prop is set at 275.5 yards. This is a number he has gone over in five of the past seven games. However, larger scale, Prescott has thrown for more than 275 yards just five times on the entire season (38.5%). Keeping in mind that Dallas will be leaving the friendly, indoor confines of AT&T Stadium for the first time in nearly a month, I would anticipate some drop-off from Dak at Orchard Park.

Kickoff is at 4:25 p.m. ET for this contest, and it would be wise to expect rain. Buffalo's forecast shows an 84% chance of showers throughout the day while lowering to 76% in the evening. So, in addition to everything I said above, the elements may also affect Prescott's production.

Oh, one last thing: we can't forget to mention that the Bills have been a top-10 team defending air attacks this season, allowing only 226.5 passing yards per game.

All in all, I'll take under 275.5 yards through the air for Prescott on Sunday.

Isaiah Likely Over 33.5 Receiving Yards (-114)

A young playmaker out of Coastal Carolina, Baltimore Ravens second-year tight end Isaiah Likely appears to be in a thriving position. Notably, the All-Pro Mark Andrews was placed on IR with an ankle injury back in Week 11. As such, the 23-year-old Likely has filled the void quite well.

In the time since Andrews was sidelined indefinitely, Likely has seen a jump in usage. After not attracting more than four targets in any single contest until Andrews' injury, Likely has seen the football come his way from Lamar Jackson 13 times over the past two games.

Likely has done well with his recent uptick in action; he caught four passes for 40 yards against the Los Angeles Chargers before hauling in five catches for 83 yards and a score last week versus the Los Angeles Rams.

While we're dealing with small samples when it comes to Likely, I think we can find fantastic value on him against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Additionally, since this will be our Sunday Night Football offering for Week 15, there is a high chance the game is played after the rain passes through Duval County. However, whether it's wet or dry, I believe Likely will eclipse 33 receiving yards this weekend.
