3 Best Prop Bets for Colts vs Bills AFC Wild Card Game


The Indianapolis Colts take on the Buffalo Bills in what promises to be one of the best matchups of Wild Card Weekend. Buffalo is currently a 6.5-point favorite over Indianapolis, according to FanDuel Sportsbook's NFL playoff odds.
If you're looking to get a little more creative with your wagering this weekend, there are a ton of NFL prop bets available on FanDuel Sportsbook. Here are three of the best prop bets for this Bills-Colts clash.
Colts vs Bills Prop Bets
3. T.Y. Hilton - Receiving Yards: Under 54.5 (-112)
After a slow start, T.Y. Hilton has come to life recently. He's averaging 72.5 receiving yards per game over his last six after averaging 36.3 per game over his first 10, failing to reach even 70 yards once during that run. With a matchup against Bills' shutdown corner Tre'Davious White on the docket, Hilton could look a lot more like he did in the first half come Saturday. White is giving up just 32.4 receiving yards per game in coverage this season, and he's likely to spend his afternoon shadowing Hilton. Philip Rivers may be forced to look elsewhere in this one.
2. Jonathan Taylor - Rushing Yards: Over 77.5 (-112)
If the Colts have any chance of keeping pace with the Bills' high-flying offense, Jonathan Taylor may be their best bet. The lights have really come on for the rookie, who is averaging an astounding 123.5 rushing yards on 19.8 carries per game since Week 11. The first-year back has surpassed this total in five of his last six games, even hitting 74 rushing yards in his worst performance during that stretch. And the Bills' defense is nothing special against the run, sitting just No. 17 by rush defense DVOA.
1. Josh Allen - Passing Yards: Over 301.5 (-112)
Josh Allen has been playing like a man possessed recently. He's averaging 303.2 passing yards per game over his last five, eclipsing 302 passing yards in three of those five outings. And it would've easily been four of five had he not been benched in the second half against the Miami Dolphins. While the Colts are a great pass defense, sitting No. 8 by DVOA, Allen has shredded the likes of Miami, San Francisco and Denver during this torrid run, and all three sit top 12 by pass defense DVOA. Buffalo's franchise QB is just playing out of his mind right now and he hasn't been phased when facing some of the NFL's stingiest defenses.
