- Josh Allen has thrown for 582 yards and 5 touchdowns on 40-of-60 passing while adding 92 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns on the ground through two games, and SportsLine projects him for 277.6 passing yards against the Chargers — well above his 238.5 prop line.
- Patrick Mahomes rebounded from a limited Week 1 (184 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT) with 382 yards and 3 TDs on 32-of-47 passing in a Week 2 overtime win against the Colts, and SportsLine projects him to score an anytime touchdown against the Dolphins.
- Ja'Marr Chase caught 7 passes for 75 yards and 2 touchdowns in Cincinnati's Week 2 win over Houston and enters Sunday's matchup averaging 7.0 receptions, 85.9 yards, and 0.8 touchdowns across 8 career games against the Steelers.
- Derrick Henry enters Week 3 with 212 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns on 40 carries and is averaging 89.0 yards and 1.5 touchdowns in two games against Dallas, with the SportsLine model projecting him for 102.7 yards against the Cowboys on Sunday.
- DraftKings, FanDuel, and BetMGM are offering combined bonuses of nearly $3,000 for Week 3, including DraftKings' $150 bonus on a $5 first wager and BetMGM's up to $1,500 in bonus bets across the 16-game slate.
Why it matters: With 16 Week 3 games and nearly $3,000 in sportsbook bonuses up for grabs, bettors get concrete numerical edges from the SportsLine model — Allen projected for 277.6 passing yards against a 238.5 line, Henry at 102.7 yards against an 88.5 line — turning prop betting from guesswork into a quantitatively supported wager.
