Can’t say I had the NFL flexing a game between Joe Flacco and Sam Darnold in the year 2024 to Sunday Night Football on my bingo card, but that’s exactly where we’re at in Week 9.
The 5-2 Vikings are 5-point favorites against the 4-4 Colts with the over/under sitting at 46.5 as of the time of writing.
When it comes to the smartest Sunday Night Football pick, Action PRO’s suite of premium betting tools have yet to identify much value on either the spread or over/under, but player props are a whole different story.
In fact, a Sunday Night Football pick on Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is currently showing as an enticing edge for Colts vs. Vikings tonight.
Here’s where the betting value lies for Colts vs. Vikings.
Sunday Night Pick for Colts vs. Vikings
*Odds, projections as of Sunday morning
Taylor is among the best running backs in league and currently ranks fourth in rushing yards per game.
However, it’s a receiving pick for Taylor that’s popping based on Action PRO’s NFL player prop projections.
Taylor’s receiving yardage over/under currently sits at 15.5 heading into Sunday Night Football.
Interestingly, Action PRO projects Taylor at 20 receiving yards for tonight’s game against the Vikings, resulting in a 4.5-yard difference when compared to the latest over/under.
As I typically write in many of these articles, shopping for the best odds (and vig) is crucial in locking in the biggest possible edge for any wager, including player props.
