Top 10 NFL Player Props for Week 9: Best Bets and Predictions

There is another great weekend of NFL action on deck as we move into Week 9 of the 2025 NFL season. Four teams are on a bye this week, leaving us with 13 games between Sunday and Monday to choose our ten favorite NFL player props from.

It’s a challenging task, but what can I say—we do it because we like you guys and just want to help. The following are our top ten player props for Week 9 (in no special order).

J.K. Dobbins, UNDER 60.5 Rushing Yards at -114 (FanDuel)
Dobbins is coming off a 111-yard day against the Dallas defense and has gone OVER this mark in seven of eight games this season. But he has not faced a tough run defense all season. Houston has the fifth-best run defense in the league and has held running backs to 75 yards per game.

Between him and R.J. Harvey, they’ll get 75, but Dobbins will not do it himself.

Daniel Jones, OVER 250.5 Passing Yards at -111 (DraftKings)
OVER 1.5 Passing Touchdowns at -151
Jones has gone OVER this mark in his last two games and in five of eight games this season. Pittsburgh has the worst pass defense in the league (273.3 yards passing allowed).

Jones has had 2+ passing touchdowns in his last four games. The Steelers have given up 18 scores this season, with 13 coming via the pass. They’ve given up three in each of their last two games and 2+ in five of seven.

Rico Dowdle, OVER 47.5 Rushing Yards at -114 (FanDuel)
Dowdle exploded when given the chance to be the full-time guy against the Dolphins (206 yards) and Cowboys (183). But when reduced to a committee role the last two weeks, he still cleared this TOTAL. Green Bay has a solid run defense, but with the Panthers set to feature Dowdle more this week, he’ll get the carries he needs to go OVER this mark.

J.J. McCarthy, UNDER 214.5 Passing Yards at -114 (FanDuel)
In his two starts, McCarthy failed to throw for 160 yards. Now, he’s coming off the injured list, having not played in over a month, and facing a tough Detroit pass rush/defense. Keep your expectations low for J.J. in this game.

Kimani Vidal, OVER 76.5 Rushing Yards at -110 (BetMGM)
Tennessee is one of the worst teams in the NFL this season. Once the game is in hand (in the early second half), the Chargers will lean heavily on their run game. If Vidal does not already have more than 76.5 yards by then, he’ll end the game OVER this TOTAL.

Bijan Robinson, UNDER 69.5 Rushing Yards at -118 (BetMGM)
Robinson has been shut down ever since he tore up the Bills' defense for 170 yards with just 40 vs. the 49ers and 25 last week against the Dolphins (yes, the Dolphins). This week, he faces the Patriots and their stingy run defense (76 yards per game allowed, No. 2).

Don’t count on him to get back on track this week.

Drake Maye, UNDER 236.5 Passing Yards at -115 (BetMGM)
Maye has been taking care of business this season, going OVER this TOTAL in five of eight games, including three of his last four. However, the Falcons boast the No. 1 pass defense, allowing just 149.1 yards per game.

With 205 yards passing last week vs. the Falcons, Tua Tagovailoa became the first QB to throw for 200+ yards vs. Atlanta.

Ja’Marr Chase, OVER 8.5 Receptions at -105 (BetMGM)
OVER 94.5 Receiving Yards at -110 (BetMGM)
In three games with Joe Flacco as the starter, Chase has been targeted 54 times, catching 38 for 346 yards and two scores with a low of 91 yards (last week vs. Jets). The Bears' defense has been stingy vs. receivers (15.14 targets per game, 9.43 receptions, and 137.71 yards).

But I’m not betting against Chase and Flacco until I see them fail.
