Yearly Record: 60-68
James Conner Anytime Touchdown +120
With Kyler Murray out, the Cardinals’ rushing attack will be in full force. James Conner has tallied five touchdowns in the past five games. With him being used more tonight, I think he’s sure to find paydirt. The Buccaneers have allowed eight running backs to score against them this season. It’d be a nice Christmas present for Conner to score on the opening drive.
Tom Brady Over 26.5 Completions -115
In the first two games of the year, Brady completed only eighteen passes. Since then, he’s had nine games over 26.5 completions. He looks like Buddy The Elf slinging snowballs around the park with how accurate he’s been. Arizona’s pass defense has been good in 2022, but Brady on Christmas feels like a recipe for success.
Rachaad White Over 2.5 Receptions -140
Tampa Bay has gotten Rachaad White more involved in their offense. It’s the same way that Santa got Rudolph more involved in his gift delivery system. White and Rudolph are both very versatile. Rudolph can fly and light up the path in front of Santa while White can catch the ball out of the backfield and be a threat in the run game. On the season, White has eight games over 2.5 catches and averages 3.8 targets a game.
Rachaad White Over 12.5 Rushing Attempts -115
We’re riding with White again. Some would call it double dipping, the same way that Santa will dip cookies into milk twice. I really like Fournette, but it feels like the Buccaneers are fading the Chonk King out for the young gun White. In three of the past five games, White has over 12.5 rushing attempts. The reason I think he’ll hit this over is because with Kyler Murray out, this game could be a blowout. When Tampa gets back on offense, they’ll look to drain the clock and run the rock.
Trace McSorley Under 31.5 Pass Attempts -115
This is a difficult spot to step into if you’re Trace McSorley. It’s Christmas day and you’re definitely outmatched against Tom Brady. Some guys had to step up around the holidays and battle a more powerful foe, like Hermey The Misfit Elf. He had to fight the Abominable Snowman and ended up succeeding. For McSorley, I think he’ll succeed for me and throw the ball less than 31.5 times. Kyler Murray only has two games this season under 31.5 passing attempts, but I doubt Kliff Kingsbury has the same confidence in McSorley to throw the ball that many times. Hammer McSorley under 31.5 passing attempts.
