Don’t look now, but Courtland Sutton and the Denver Broncos have won six straight games as they head into a division game on Thursday Night Football in Week 10.
The Broncos are 9.5-point favorites for this one, with the Raiders +380 underdogs on the moneyline. The points total is set at O/U 42.5 on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Below is my favorite Sutton prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Thursday’s game.
Best Courtland Sutton Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Sutton is coming off one of his worst performances of the season, only catching one of his six targets last week against Houston. The catch he did make was an important one, a 30-yard touchdown grab, but Sutton will be looking for an improved performance on Thursday. It will be against much easier competition this week, as he goes from facing a top-five passing defense in Houston to a below-average secondary in Las Vegas.
The Raiders rank 21st in the NFL against the pass, allowing an average of 224 yards per game. Sutton and company should be able to have a much better week than last Sunday, and ultimately, a win should follow.
Sutton has gone over this receiving total in six of his nine games this season, and is averaging just under 63 receiving yards per contest. He has been especially efficient in home games, going over this total in all four of their games in Denver. Sutton leads the team in receptions, receiving yards and is tied for the lead in touchdowns, despite seeing two fewer targets than Troy Franklin.
This total feels about 10 yards too low against a shaky defense, and Sutton should get over this total for the seventh time this season.
