Eagles vs Buccaneers Player Prop #1: Baker Mayfield Under 235.5 Passing Yards (-110)
Our first Eagles vs Buccaneers prop selection concerns Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield. Mayfield should stay under his passing yardage total, which sits at 235.5 yards coming into this Monday night matchup. The Bucs signal caller was held to just 146 passing yards against the Eagles in their regular season meeting in Tampa and should struggle again here, even if it is not to the degree we saw back in September.
Betting on Mayfield to throw an interception in this game is also an interesting look for those who want more Mayfield-related props. He threw a pick against Philadelphia in their previous meeting and is notoriously mistake-prone throughout his career. While the Eagles secondary has been inconsistent of late, an opponent like Mayfield could be just who they need to see to get things back on track.
Eagles vs Buccaneers Player Prop #2: Jake Elliott Over 1.5 Made Field Goals (+114)
The second of our Eagles vs Buccaneers props for Monday is for Eagles kicker Jake Elliott to make at least two field goals in this game. Elliott knocked three field goals through for the Eagles against the Bucs in their previous meeting this season. With the Eagles struggling to finish drives late in the season, we should see another game where Elliott shines on special teams for Philly.
The accuracy of Elliott this season is supremely helpful when betting on a prop like this one. Elliott has made 30 of his 32 field goal attempts for the Eagles on the year and has missed just one of his 46 extra point attempts. His reliability in the kicking game will help both the Eagles and bettors who take the over in this prop market.
