NFC South Prop Picks: Bet QBs Cousins, Mayfield to Cash in Week 10
- The offense is helping Atlanta pull away with the NFC South.
- Despite injuries, QB Baker Mayfield is still a betting option in NFL lines.
- Kirk Cousins has formed an amazing connection with Falcons receiver Darnell Mooney.
- BetUS Sportsbook has all the latest NFL odds.
The race in the NFC South is heating up. Well, not really, but more on that in a bit. We’re taking a look at my top NFL player props today in the NFC South for Week 10.
Back to the NFL standings, Kirk Cousins, aka Kirko Chainz, and the Atlanta Falcons are the lone team with a winning record in the NFC South at 6-3. The Panthers and Saints both have two wins. The 4-5 Bucs have a distant chance to win the division but have been hit by the injury bug.

Here’s my best prop bets to take in the NFC South.
Bet These 5 NFC South Prop Bets
1. Bucs QB Baker Mayfield Over 1.5 Touchdown Passes
Tampa Bay quarterback Baker Mayfield is going through it like Swifties do after they see the ticket prices for the Eras tour. Mayfield is without his top two receiving options as Mike Evans and Chris Godwin are sidelined, according to 49ers vs Buccaneers injuries.
The former No. 1 pick has managed to keep the Bucs competitive even without his star-studded cast. Tampa Bay kept it close against Atlanta and forced overtime at Kansas City on Monday Night Football.
Baker Mayfield has 25 total touchdowns this NFL season. No one else even has as many as 23. Lamar is 2nd with 22.
So if I hear one more person say, “But Baker has 9 interceptions!” I’m gonna LOSE MY MIND.

Both teams are likely headed for the postseason, although the Buccaneers offer value in NFL futures odds at +220 to make the playoffs. Mayfield has thrown for two or more touchdowns in five straight games.
This is a less than ideal matchup against the Niners defense, but look for Mayfield to keep the streak going. We’re taking the over on Mayfield’s touchdown passes.
Bet on Baker Mayfield Over 1.5 TD Passes (-104)
2. Bucs TE Cade Otton to Score a TD vs Niners
One of the reasons Tampa Bay has remained competitive even without its star receivers is the emergence of tight end Cade Otton. The playmaker has had eight or more receptions in two straight games and topped 75 yards in both outings.
I think we need to have a serious conversation about Cade Otton being a top 3 TE moving foward 👀👀
Since Evans and Godwins got hurt:
8 Rec 100 Yards
9 Rec 81 Yards | 2 TD
8 Rec 77 Yards | 1 TDWhere do you rank him ROS?? pic.twitter.com/IFqR1hoRrF

Otton posted three touchdowns in the last two contests. Bet online on Otton to once again find the end zone against the Niners in Week 10.
Bet on Cade Otten Anytime Touchdown (+160)

3. Falcons WR Darnell Mooney to Score TD vs Saints
With fellow wideout Drake London dealing with an injury, it could be the Darnell Mooney show for the Falcons in New Orleans. Even with London on the field, Kirk Cousins has looked Mooney’s way often.
When the Falcons need a clutch play on third and fourth downs, it is often Mooney who notches the reception. One of the reasons Mooney is a touchdown threat is his elite speed to outrun corners and safeties.

We’re taking Mooney to score a TD in our NFL predictions.
Bet on Darnell Mooney Anytime TD (+140)
4. Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard to Score a TD vs Giants
There are very few consistent things about the Carolina offense outside of Chuba Hubbard. It’s a big reason why the Panthers just made NFL news this week by giving Hubbard the bag on a new $33 million contract extension.
Sources: The #Panthers have locked in one of their young stars, agreeing to terms with RB Chuba Hubbard on 4-year, $33.2M contract extension.
He gets a max value of $37.2M with $15M in new fully guaranteed money. 💰 💰 💰 pic.twitter.com/oDOf5AxmDM

That’s a lot of Bojangles in Charlotte. Hubbard is coming off a two-touchdown performance against the Saints.
The running back has posted three TDs in the last two outings. Take Hubbard to score a touchdown versus the Giants. For added value in NFL bets today, you can take Hubbard to score the first TD of the game.
Bet on Chuba Hubbard Anytime TD (+100) and First TD (+600)
5. Falcons QB Kirk Cousins Over 1.5 Touchdown Passes vs Saints
We’re swaggin’ and surfin’ on Cousins’ hot streak as the team takes on a woeful Saints squad. Atlanta would like nothing more than to run up the score on their rival who is down bad.

Cousins has thrown seven touchdown pases in the last two games. Look for Cousins’ hot streak to continue in New Orleans. Let’s snag the over on Cousins’ touchdown passes for my final NFL pick.
