Week 5 of the NFL season kicks off with a classic NFC South rivalry as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers head just north to Atlanta to take on the Falcons. It’s a matchup that is expected to be one of the closest of the week, which is why many fans are preferring the approach of NFL TNF player prop picks instead of the standard markets.

To help with that, we’ve shared our best Buccaneers vs. Falcons player props alongside a guaranteed $200 DraftKings Sportsbook sign up bonus!

 

 

 

Best NFL Thursday Night Football Player Prop Picks

As mentioned, NFL TNF player prop picks will certainly be a common approach given how much of a toss-up this game seems to be. The Falcons have had their last three games decided by a combined eight points, and the Bucs have been just as wild in a different way.

They just blew out the Philadelphia Eagles by 17 points but lost to the Denver Broncos the week prior by 19 points. So, rather than riding that rollercoaster, we’re looking for value in the Buccaneers vs. Falcons player props markets. Admittedly, the way these teams utilize their weapons, it’s not the easiest TNF matchup for them, but we’ve found great spots for you!

 

 

 

Buccaneers vs. Falcons Player Props: Bucky Irving Over 42.5 Rushing Yards (-115 at DraftKings)

With Tampa’s hot 3-1 start to the season, much of the attention has been on QB Baker Mayfield, and rightfully so. He’s been fantastic through the first four weeks, most recently throwing for 357 yards and two touchdowns this past Sunday after starting the game 12-for-13.

However, the air is exactly where teams look to exploit the Eagles, ironically enough, but that may not be the best approach against the Falcons. These birds seem to have a keener eye, but are allowing teams to run through them on the ground.

Now, the issue with that is the fact that Tampa doesn’t seem to have a true bell cow like we saw with Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry on Sunday Night Football, for example. While that may be true, they are proving to trust Bucky Irving more and more each week while trying to utilize Rachaad White more in the passing game.

The two were tied for carries last Sunday, but it was Irving that found the endzone. It was also he that led the team in rushing the past two games. Given that the ground game is where Atlanta can be exploited, the first of our NFL TNF player prop picks is on over 42.5 rushing yards (-115 at DraftKings Sportsbook).

 

 

 

Buccaneers vs. Falcons Player Prop Bets: Bijan Robinson Anytime TD Scorer (-110 at DraftKings)

As if Tampa didn’t already create issues when targeting Buccaneers vs. Falcons player props, so too does Atlanta. Despite having an elite young RB in second-year back Bijan Robinson, fans and fantasy football managers alike have been trying to figure out their offensive scheme.

Last week against the Saints, it was Tyler Allgeier that led the team in rushing, which he also did the week prior against the Chiefs. As head-scratching as that may be, it’s far from panic time for Bijan. The Texas product has 32 carries across the first two games of the season, and if there is a matchup for him to get back on that path, it’s this one.

Tampa’s rushing defense has allowed over 131 yards per game, and even in their win last Sunday it was exploited. Eagles RB Saquon Barkley averaged 8.4 yards per carry, and while he’s a superstar, Bijan is concerned in that same tier of RB. Therefore, we’re adding to our NFL TNF player prop picks with Bijan Robinson to be an anytime TD scorer (-125 at DraftKings Sportsbook).
