- Week 2 is all but over but first we have the matter of the Atlanta Falcons versus the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football
- My favorite way to get down on the NFL is by betting players props and there are a few worth considering Monday night
- See below to find two of my favorite Falcons vs Eagles player props to bet for this MNF matchup
We’ve got one more game on the Week 2 slate so obviously we need to lock in. We’re going to be without the NFL for two whole days after this. We literally can’t afford to skip this game. I wouldn’t advise my worst enemy to not get down on a Monday Night Football game. Skipping it simply shouldn’t be done.
This matchup between the Atlanta Falcons and Philadelphia Eagles feels like a good one. Maybe even great. If you like offense that is. I know we’re missing AJ Brown, but when we go through both rosters, it doesn’t even matter. We’ve got playmakers falling out of our pockets. It’s actually good that AJ Brown is out. Keep reading for today’s Falcons vs Eagles player-prop picks.
Falcons vs Eagles Player Prop Picks
Player | Receptions | Receiving Yards | Pick |
---|---|---|---|
Dallas Goedert (Eagles) | 4.5 (Ov +102 / Un -139) | 42.5 (Ov -115 / Un -119) | 50+ Receiving Yards (+130) |
Player | Receptions | Receiving Yards | Pick |
Kyle Pitts (Falcons) | 3.5 (Ov -130 / Un +100) | 40.5 (Ov -120 / Un -110) | Over 45.5 Receiving Yards (+125) |
The NFL player props I’m targeting today focus on the two starting tight ends, and I’m betting both to go over their alternate receiving yards at plus-money.

Dallas Goedert Is a Man of the People
When we wager our cash, we need to bet on guys we can trust. One might think we can trust everyone, but if we’re being honest, not everyone has our best betting interests in mind when they take the field. Sounds shocking, but it’s true.
Lucky for us, tonight we can bet on a true man of the people in Dallas Goedert.

Dallas respects coin which is obvious since he knew the line last week. Not only did he know the line, but he was sad when he didn’t quite get over it. It’s not hard to imagine that this guy will come locked and loaded tonight. On top of being ready himself, there should be extra targets available since AJ Brown is out.
Now the haters are going to say AJ Brown being out is already baked into the line which is true. But here’s the thing, the game script that I think will play out doesn’t appear to be baked in. The Falcons are 5.5-point dogs tonight but what if they put up a fight? Atlanta could easily hang a few points on this Philly defense.
When that happens, Dallas Goedert will go for 50+ receiving yards. Feels right.

Kyle Pitts Coming Out Party Is Tonight
They say home is where the heart is and I think that’s true. I’ve seen it on bumper stickers, signs that you get at Home Goods, and it might even be in the Bible. It’s tough to argue with that kind of reach.
Whether you believe the saying or not, you can’t help but feel good about Kyle Pitts going home to play in front of friends and family tonight.

Does it really matter that Kyle is in Philly tonight? Probably not, but it’s fun to talk about. The other thing that’s fun to talk about is the fact that the Falcons may actually use this guy this season. It’s a mystery why he hasn’t been unlocked before, but he’s still young so we have time.
Now the haters are going to say that Kyle didn’t do much against the Pittsburgh Steelers last week but as usual, the haters don’t understand what they’re watching. The Falcons only had the ball for 24 minutes. That Steelers defense is good. Plus Kirk Cousins was probably nervous in his team debut. Look for the Falcons to get right against an Eagles defense that likely still has track marks from getting run over by the Packers last week.
Kyle gets loose tonight people. Feels right.
