How to bet NFL team specials

You’re not going to find a lot of value in the one-way markets available in the “Team Specials” menu through DraftKings. Still, there were a few team-based props that caught my attention as recreational additions to potentially fill out your NFL futures portfolio.

Falcons to beat Buccaneers home and away (+150 via DraftKings) ⭐

There’s all kinds of positive buzz surrounding the Atlanta Falcons, and SBR's Senior Publishing Editor Esten McLaren was bullish about the Dirty Birds taking care of their divisional business in our Falcons betting preview.

Atlanta is the moneyline favorite in both matchups against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with respective odds of -115 via DraftKings on the road in Week 7 and -162 via DraftKings at home in Week 14.

The two prices combine for +202 odds according to our parlay calculator, so we're not landing the best number here because DraftKings doesn’t allow the two moneylines to be parlayed. Still, even with the difference in the odds checking out at a negative expected value of 17%, I like the Falcons to win both games against Tampa Bay.

Browns to have 1+ touchdown in every regular season game (+250 via DraftKings) ⭐⭐

You’re probably not going to find the Cleveland Browns discussed as a prime candidate to be the highest scoring NFL team, but the offense has weapons – and could prove especially dangerous if quarterback Deshaun Watson can return to his Pro Bowl form.

Cleveland scored a touchdown in all 17 games last season, and the +250 odds via DraftKings give them an implied probability of just 28.6% that they’ll do it again.

I like their chances more than that.

Any Packers player to have 10+ regular season rushing or receiving touchdowns (+400 via DraftKings) ⭐

I’ve found value in a number of Green Bay Packers betting markets this offseason, and NFL betting analyst Jon Metler also noted similar sentiments in his Packers betting preview. DraftKings, in particular, is underrating first-year, starting-quarterback Jordan Love.

Here are my projections and odds for Green Bay’s big three to record 10 or more touchdowns:

Obviously, my projections and prices shouldn’t have any of us rushing to the window to bet on a Packers player finishing with double-digit touchdowns. I just still see an avenue here where Watson truly breaks out, or Jones or Dillon misses time and the healthy rusher capitalizes on increased opportunities.

Chiefs to win all six division games (+650 via DraftKings) ⭐

The Kansas City Chiefs are the betting favorites to win all six of their division games this season, and their shortest line is -125 through DraftKings on the road against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 18.

The combined DraftKings odds according to our parlay calculator would check out at +906, so there’s a negative expected value of 26% attached to this bet. However, because DraftKings isn’t allowing bettors to parlay all six of these games, I don’t mind this as a recreational wager.

Any Raiders player to have 12+ regular season rushing or receiving touchdowns (+125 via DraftKings) ⭐

Both wide receiver Davanta Adams (14) and running back Josh Jacobs (12) scored at least a dozen times last season, and it’s easy to forget the Las Vegas Raiders finished with a respectable 23.2 points per game.

Additionally, I’m not convinced there’s an astronomical drop off from Derek Carr – and two Jarrett Stidham starts – to Jimmy Garoppolo.

My numbers have Adams and Jacobs both falling short of 12 touchdowns, but we’ve also got two kicks at the can and a long-shot chance that an out-of-nowhere Raider hits the benchmark. I have Adams pegged for 8.8 receiving touchdowns and a 28.6% chance (+250) of reaching 12, while Jacobs projection is 9.2 rushing touchdowns with a 31.9% probability (+213) of reaching 12 scores.

Anyway you slice it, the San Francisco 49ers check out as Super Bowl contenders with a solid offense and favorable strength of schedule. And, the last time the Niners failed to find the end zone was in Week 7 of the 2019 season.

These odds suggest there’s a 50-50 chance San Fran finds pay dirt in every game, and I think the price should be much shorter, so there’s value in the +100 DraftKings number.
