Odds boosts are exactly that: Promotions from sportsbooks where they move tin your favor on certain bets. Many of them are prop bets, hoping you’ll put a few dollars on someone to hit a home run or a certain team to score a certain number of goals and still win. Our job is to highlight some of those odds boosts and give you some NFL picks to bet on, assuming it’s smart to buy into what the sportsbooks are selling. We scour the internet trying to find the best odds boosts for you every day from every sport.
We’re sticking with tonight’s Thursday Night Football game for these odds boosts, but we’re going to mainly avoid the quarterbacks. I wrote yesterday about the best options for the quarterbacks, so I’m going to focus on the skill positions here. There isn’t much going on for the Miami side, so we’re going to look at two of the key players for the Jaguars. As a reminder,  all of these odds boosts can be found on OddsShopper, so let’s dive into what we found on Awesemo’s odds comparison tool today.

NFL Picks + NFL Odds Boosts
NFL Picks: James Robinson Scores Touchdown AND Jaguars Win (+240 FanDuel)
Robinson scored his first career touchdown last week against Tennessee, and he’ll be a key part in keeping the Jaguars’ offense balanced against Miami. If Jacksonville is winning late in the game, you could see Robinson get more touches and be able to punch in a late touchdown. However, it’s just as likely that he gets a call on the goal line or breaks off a long rush against a struggling Miami defense. The Dolphins rank 29th against the rush through the first two weeks, so Robinson has a chance to do some damage.
BetMGM also has an NFL odds boost on Robinson with excellent odds. The sportsbook is offering +700 odds on Robinson to rush for at least 75 yards and have at least 30 yards receiving. Robinson only has four catches through the first two games, but he can be a dangerous threat out of the backfield is Miami tries too hard to keep the top on its defense. Robinson is coming off an 100-yard performance on the ground last week on only 16 carries, so he doesn’t need many touches to be able to gain yards.
Ben’s Bet of the Day
Awesemo’s sports betting expert Ben Rasa pours over the day’s betting lines and breaks down the best bet of the day for you to build your sports betting card around.
NFL Picks: Gardner Minshew Throws Two Touchdowns (100 BetMGM)
Cleaning up yesterday’s post about the quarterbacks, BetMGM added an odds boost about Minshew throwing two touchdown passes. PointsBet still has its offer at -165 from yesterday, but these are much better odds obviously. DraftKings also added an NFL odds boost on Minshew scoring at least three total touchdowns at +135 odds. As a reminder, Minshew has thrown for three touchdowns in each of the first two games of the season, and Miami secondary’s is depleted after getting torn up last week by Buffalo.
