Arizona Cardinals vs. Denver Broncos Match Details
Fixture: Arizona Cardinals @ Denver Broncos
Date & Time: Sunday, December 18, 4:05 p.m. EDT
Venue: Empower Field at Mile High, Denver, Colorado
NFL Player Prop #1: Colt McCoy Over 20.5 Passing Completions (-125)
Colt McCoy is the Cardinals' backup QB, but with Kyler Murray out for the year, he's had to step in. McCoy will be making his third start, but this will be his fourth full game. In his three games this season, he's averaged 25.7 completions on 37 attempts. Even though Denver has a solid defense, McCoy was able to put up good numbers against a very good Patriots defense last week. Expect the former University of Texas QB to complete over 21 today, as he's completed 24 or more in all of his appearances this year up to this point.
NFL Player Prop #2: Brett Rypien Under 8.5 Rushing Yards (-127)
Brett Rypien will take over as the Broncos' quarterback today with starter Russell Wilson out with a concussion. Rypien only has two career starts under his belt, and he's not known at all for his running ability. He tallied nine yards on the ground in a game this year, but that's the only time he's ever surpassed eight rushing yards. The Cardinals don't give up a lot of rushing yards, and Rypien likely won't look to run often, so take the under here.
NFL Player Prop #3: DeAndre Hopkins Over 6.5 Receptions (+118)
DeAndre Hopkins, since returning from injury, has been excellent for Arizona despite all the losses. Hopkins has beaten the over in five of his seven games this year, and he's reeled in seven catches in three of his past four. It shouldn't matter that McCoy is under center instead of Murray, as Hopkins is extremely difficult to guard regardless.
