The Broncos and Patriots face off in the AFC Championship at 3 p.m. ET on Sunday, Jan. 25.
New England is a 4.5-point favorite and -238 on the moneyline, while Denver is +195 on DraftKings Sportsbook. The game total is set at 42.5 points.
Here are my top Stefon Diggs prop bets for the Patriots vs. Broncos AFC Championship matchup on Sunday.
Best Stefon Diggs Prop Bets
Diggs’ debut season with the Patriots was a success. He reached 1,000 yards for the seventh time in his career and was the top receiver for the No. 2 seed in the AFC. His touchdowns dipped from previous years, but he had a great season nonetheless.
Through two playoff games, he’s been fairly underwhelming as a No. 1 option. He caught two of five passes for 16 yards against the Chargers and four of six passes for 40 yards and a touchdown against the Texans. The touchdown somewhat washes away the otherwise low yards total, and it seems likely for this to happen again this week.
Denver allowed the seventh fewest passing yards and fourth fewest passing touchdowns this season, but it faced the sixth most pass attempts. Teams would much rather test the pass defense than run into the brick wall that is the run defense.
Even with a potentially high volume of passes, the Broncos defense should limit Diggs to under 46.5 receiving yards in the AFC Championship. He’s fallen under this mark in 10 of 17 regular season games this year and both playoff matchups.
