We know NFL coaches love to establish the run, and elite running backs can take games over and present problems for opposing defenses, be it in short-yardage situations or taking a handoff or swing pass for a massive gain or even a touchdown. If you're a fan of great running backs and enjoy NFL betting, you should check out our Week 3 three-leg running back player prop parlay at BetMGM.

Final odds: +511 (wager $100 to win $511) at BetMGM
Josh Jacobs Over 1.5 receptions (-139)
The Packers love to let Jacobs cook, and given that the Browns have Myles Garrett patrolling the defensive front, they may want to get the star back more touches through the air rather than purely on the ground. Jacobs has scored in 11 straight games, including the postseason, and he may make it 12 with a little pass at the goal line.
Jonathan Taylor Over 89.5 rushing yards (-111)
Taylor hasn't cashed in with a touchdown yet this season, but the star Colts tailback has produced well with games of 165 and 71 rushing yards to begin the campaign -- good enough to lead the league in rushing. The Titans have allowed the fourth-most rushing yards through the first two weeks, meaning Taylor should have ample opportunity to rip off some big runs against a division rival.
Kyren Williams Over 61.5 rushing yards (-115)
After exploding in the last two campaigns, Williams hasn't had a true breakout game yet. A true eruption game may not be in store against Philadelphia, but the Eagles have proven to be more vulnerable on the ground than expected. This feels like a sneaky good spot for Williams to rack up some yardage and give the Rams a change of pace.
