Both the Los Angeles Rams (1-2) and Philadelphia Eagles (2-1) are coming off high-profile losses in prime time. LA coughed up a second-half lead—thanks in no small part to the officials—and Philly got dissected by third-string QB Case Keenum. In terms of betting, I’m looking at a couple of Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks and a veteran tight end in this contest.
There’s a natural crossover between fantasy football and NFL player prop bets. If you haven’t participated in sports betting but love fantasy sports, this is as fine as any place to begin. You can wager as little as pennies just to get your feet wet. Aside from the thrill of winning real money, it’s a fun way to test your knowledge and prognostication skills.

Eagles TE Zach Ertz 25+ Receiving Yards (+101)
Dallas Goedert (knee) and DeVonta Smith (hamstring) have been ruled out for this Sunday. That leaves Dontayvion Wicks and Makai Lemon to carry the load. While I do think Wicks has upside here, I could easily envision Ertz catching a few checkdowns as a safety net.
Rams QB Matthew Stafford 260+ Passing Yards (+123)
Stafford has thrown for over 300 yards in each of the last two games, and that was without Puka Nacua (hip), who is set to return in Week 4. Philadelphia allowed 247 yards to Keenum on Monday night while spending almost 37 minutes on the field. There should be opportunities for the reigning MVP to move the ball on a tired defense.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts 1+ Rushing TD (+175)
With Aaron Donald (back) joining Myles Garrett (knee) in street clothes this Sunday, LA’s defensive line suddenly looks vulnerable. Hurts accounted for the team’s only touchdown on Monday night, and he may well have had a second if he hadn’t been forced off the field for a concussion test.
Same-Game Parlay for Rams at Eagles
If you feel like all three of the above bets will hit, the SGP is worth dropping a few dollars on at the current odds.
