Our favorite NFL best bets and player props for Monday Night Football, where the Philadelphia Eagles visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Not only are the Eagles fantastic at running the ball, they excel at stopping the run. Philadelphia leads the league in rushing yards allowed at just 52.0 yards per game and has yet to give up a touchdown. They also rank second in rush attempts allowed at 15.5 per contest.
In Week 1, they held Rhamondre Stevenson to 25 yards on 12 carries and Ezekiel Elliott had 29 yards on seven carries. Last Thursday, Alexander Mattison had 28 yards on eight attempts. Whether it is a lack of attempts due to the score, or a lack of running room in general, it is hard to even break into the 30-yard mark on the ground for one player against the Eagles.
Rachaad White will get a majority of the carries for the Bucs, but that doesn't guarantee much. In games where they held the lead for most of the game, he had 17 carries in each of the past two games. However, he only averaged 3.3 yards per attempt and will likely get less work at either a similar or worse average yardage.
