The nation&#8217;s eyes will be on that game on Sunday, and the Bills will need a big game from Cook if they&#8217;re going to beat Kansas City. We&#8217;ve put together a three-leg NFL player props parlay at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/betting\/news\/betmgm-promo-code\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BetMGM<\/a> composed of three RB props, including one on Cook. The whole parlay pays out at just over 6-1.

It feels tempting to back him to have another huge game given how he&#8217;s performed, but exercise caution. The <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/teams\/PIT\/pittsburgh-steelers\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Steelers<\/a> have been roughly middle of the pack against the run, yes, but Taylor can&#8217;t cross the century mark every week. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/nfl\/game-forecast\/NFL_20251102_IND@PIT\/prop-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The SportsLine model has Taylor projected for 74.8 yards and rates this Under 4 stars out of 5.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Bijan Robinson Over 4.5 receptions<\/p>\n<p>Robinson had an uncharacteristically poor game last week, against the <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/teams\/MIA\/miami-dolphins\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dolphins<\/a> of all teams &#8212; a side that usually gets torched by running backs. The <a class=\"Annotation-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/teams\/NE\/new-england-patriots\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Patriots<\/a>, on the other hand, have been excellent at stopping the run. Robinson is still arguably the best offensive threat Atlanta has, so look for him to get involved in the passing game. This is a great prop to get at plus money, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/nfl\/game-forecast\/NFL_20251102_ATL@NE\/prop-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">especially because the model forecasts 5.2 catches for Robinson and rates this Over 4.5 stars out of 5<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>James Cook Over 16.5 carries<\/p>\n<p>Cook is far and away Buffalo&#8217;s leader in offensive yards gained. The Bills will need a big game from their star back if they&#8217;re going to keep the ascendant Chiefs at bay. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/nfl\/game-forecast\/NFL_20251102_KC@BUF\/prop-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The SportsLine model rates this Over 4.5 stars out of 5 with the line at 17.5<\/a>, so getting a one-carry discount at BetMGM is excellent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Many of the NFL&#8217;s star running backs are back in action in Week 9, with none having a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":252988,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[1766,117880,6359,19206,75351,1748,49,48,1732,21597,117879,2217,117878,1727,1720,1718,514,39028,25999,25995,117877,75353,39026,73334,949,82],"class_list":["post-252987","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-atlanta-falcons","tag-best-nfl-bets-at-betmgm","tag-betting","tag-bijan-robinson","tag-bijan-robinson-props","tag-buffalo-bills","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-indianapolis-colts","tag-james-cook","tag-james-cook-props","tag-jonathan-taylor","tag-jonathan-taylor-props","tag-kansas-city-chiefs","tag-miami-dolphins","tag-new-england-patriots","tag-nfl","tag-nfl-bets","tag-nfl-betting","tag-nfl-odds","tag-nfl-parlay-betting","tag-nfl-parlays","tag-nfl-picks","tag-nfl-player-props","tag-pittsburgh-steelers","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252987","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=252987"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252987\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/252988"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=252987"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=252987"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=252987"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
