Elsewhere, Chris Godwin should rack up receptions against the Detroit Lions while a pair of Los Angeles Chargers players have my attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check out the best NFL Week 2 prop bets for the upcoming games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-0a4ee124-09d4-4260-81c9-fd6fe232dbb3\">NFL Week 2 prop bets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"insights wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Go to full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/sports-hub\/american_football\/nfl\">NFL Week 2 betting markets<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-479767b6-5872-497b-ac44-239c07c7e3d5\"><strong>Best bet: Henry over 70.5 rushing yards (-114)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"cacheembed:94385\">Embed: #94385<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Ravens abandoned the run game against Kansas City &#8230; again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Henry turned five carries into 17 yards and a touchdown in Baltimore&#8217;s opening drive but only toted the ball three more times in the first half and eight more times in the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He ended with a lacklustre 13 carries for 46 yards (3.5 YPC). Maybe John Harbaugh will never learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Either way, Henry should have a much better game script against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Ravens ran the ball down lesser opponents&#8217; throats in 2023 and the Raiders are certainly a lesser opponent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las Vegas gave up 176 rushing yards on 6.5 YPC to a backfield comprised of J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards, two former Ravens, in Week 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Baltimore averaged a league-best 156.5 rushing yards per game during the 2023 season and had the third-best rushing EPA per play (+0.009), per RBSDM.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Justice Hill only received one carry in the opener so this is firmly Henry&#8217;s backfield. I expect Baltimore to take an early lead and lean on the run game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Henry had the second-most rushing yards last season (1,167).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-fa134a48-a478-432b-95e0-66881f0d337b\">Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dobbins over 55.5 rushing yards (-113):<\/strong> You could probably talk me into any Chargers prop considering they&#8217;re playing the Carolina Panthers but this is the first (of two) that stuck out to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"cacheembed:94456\">Embed: #94456<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dobbins was explosive but oft-injured in his Ravens career. He showed his big-play ability on Sunday, rushing for 135 yards on 10 carries in his L.A. debut. Even if you take away his 61-yard scramble, he still netted 74 yards at 8.2 per carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Compare that to Edwards, who had 26 yards on 11 touches, and we might see the timeshare shift in Dobbins&#8217; favour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carolina gave up 180 rushing yards in Week 1 and just lost standout defensive tackle Derrick Brown for the season. The Chargers should roll, and Dobbins should be key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>McConkey over 43.5 receiving yards (-113): <\/strong>I don&#8217;t just expect L.A. to rumble on the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"cacheembed:94455\">Embed: #94455<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ladd McConkey had a solid NFL debut, catching five of seven targets for 39 yards and a touchdown. Both of those were team highs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Second-year receiver Quentin Johnston&#8217;s drop problem reared its head again and I think patience is running thin with him and Justin Herbert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">McConkey should have plenty of targets against an awful defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Godwin over 5.5 receptions (+115):<\/strong> Godwin hauled in all eight of his targets in Week 1 for 83 yards and a score. Granted, that was against the lowly Washington Commanders, but I still want to get in on the action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"cacheembed:94386\">Embed: #94386<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The speedy slot receiver has become a favourite of quarterback Baker Mayfield and his 130 targets in 2023 were second to only Mike Evans (136).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Godwin was looked at plenty in Tampa Bay&#8217;s divisional-round loss to the Lions, though he only caught 4-of-8 passes. Evans stole the show with eight receptions for 147 yards and Dan Campbell should emphasize slowing him down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week, Cooper Kupp feasted from the slot against the Lions, with 14 receptions and 110 yards. I expect Godwin to have a solid day from the same position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Picks made at 11:55 a.m. ET on 09\/12\/2024<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m targeting two running backs and two receivers in these NFL Week 2 prop bets.
