Russell Wilson continues his assault on NFL defenses on Sunday when he and the Seattle Seahawks take on the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla. Through three games, the Seattle quarterback has 14 touchdown passes, breaking the record Patrick Mahomes set in 2018 for the most in NFL history through a team's first three games. Wilson also is the fifth player in league history to throw at least four touchdown passes in three straight games.
For Sunday William Hill has set Wilson's total for touchdown passes at 2.5 (+140 for over, -170 for under). The total for Wilson's passing yards is 293.5 (-115 over-under). Those are just two of hundreds of different player prop bet opportunities for Week 4 of the NFL season. Before you lock in any NFL prop bets, you need to see what SportsLine fantasy and sports betting expert Jen Ryan has to say.
A finalist for the Best Football Series award from the Fantasy Sports Writers Association in 2016, Ryan is a fantasy football guru who also is a frequent guest on Football Diehards' show on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio. Every week she goes in-depth on SportsLine on using Vegas lines to make fantasy decisions in both season-long leagues and daily contests.
So far this season she has been solid with her NFL prop bets. She has gone 9-5 through three weeks and is up $400. This week, Ryan has attacked the NFL player props from William Hill and found five strong bets. You can only see them here.
Top NFL player prop bets for Week 4
Ryan loves Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford to go over 1.5 passing touchdowns (-130) against the Saints. So far this season Stafford has completed 62.3 percent of his passes for 811 yards and five touchdowns. He has thrown at least two touchdown passes in 82 of 152 career games.
"Stafford has thrown two touchdowns in back-to-back weeks, and with Kenny Golladay being at full health Stafford's ceiling has been raised," Ryan tells SportsLine. "The Lions are three-point home underdogs, and Stafford, never shy to sling it, is going to be slinging it."
How to make NFL player prop bets for Week 4
Ryan also is high on a receiver to smash his projected receiving yardage total, and who it is may shock you. She says this prop will likely be her "heaviest bet prop of the weekend." She's only sharing who it is, and all of her top NFL prop picks, here.
