Packers vs. Jaguars Best NFL Prop Betting Odds for NFL Week 8 (Back Jordan Love, Romeo Doubs

The Green Bay Packers are currently rolling, moving to 5-2 on the season after a Week 7 win over the Houston Texans.

Now they will face a two-win Jacksonville Jaguars team that defeated the New England Patriots in Week 7.

Green Bay’s offense could have a field day in this one, as the Jaguars have allowed the second-most points in the NFL and the third-most yards per game. That’s a good sign if you want to bet on Packers props, which I am in Week 8.

Plus, there’s a rookie receiver worth watching on Sunday.

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook.

Brian Thomas Jr. Always TD (+145)

Jaguars rookie Brian Thomas Jr. has four touchdowns in seven games and he has quickly become the best receiving option in this offense.

Thomas has scored at least five goals in each of his last five games, and he has been on the field for 64 percent or more of the team’s goals in each game.

After finding the end zone against New England, I think Thomas can do it again on Sunday against a Packers defense that has allowed ten good scores in 2024.

Romeo doubts MORE THAN 3.5 receptions (-155)

Don’t sleep on Packers receiver Romeo Doubs, who has looked like a different player since missing one game due to suspension.

In his two games since then, Doubs has 11 catches for 143 yards and two scores, putting him eight catches on 10 targets in Week 8.

He has three 3.5 receptions in six games this season and the Jaguars are very beatable through the air, giving them the second-most passing yards in the NFL. Trust Doubs to stay warm on Sunday.

Jordan Love OVER 255.5 passing yards (-115)

SI NFL betting insider Iain MacMillan thinks Packers quarterback Jordan Love could be in line for a huge game in Week 8. He shared why in his Column Player Prop Countdown earlier this week:

Jordan Love should be well prepared to completely torch the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jags’ secondary ranks last in opponent dropback EPA and 26th in opponent dropback success rate. They have also allowed 7.6 yards per pass attempt, which ranks 30th in the NFL.

Jordan Love, who already averages the most passing yards per game this season at 270.2, has a stacked receiving core that this Jacksonville secondary can exploit. If he reaches his season average in passing yards, this bet is a winner.
