NFL Week 2 Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions (2024)

by |

NFL Week 2 is here and it’s time to find some betting winners before the games kick off. Picking matchups against the spread and locking in the over/under are more commonplace, but a Same-Game Parlay (SGP) gives us even more added action. Let’s find some plus-money SGP picks for every game on the Week 2 Sunday afternoon slate. Keep in mind, the odds below are accurate as of this writing but are always subject to change up until kickoff. Keep track of any of the latest NFL injury news and odds movement before locking in any of these SGP bets as well. Without further ado, let’s dive into the best NFL Week 2 Same Game Parlay bets before the games get underway.

Best NFL Same Game Parlay Bets (Week 2)

(All bets are one unit)

New Orleans Saints at Dallas Cowboys 

  • Leg 1: Cowboys -6 (-112)
  • Leg 2: CeeDee Lamb 80+ Receiving Yards (-180)
  • Leg 3: Derek Carr Over 20.5 Pass Completions (-130)

The Saints blew out the Panthers last week and are still 6-point underdogs on the road here. That says a lot about how much (or little) the market and the oddsmakers are putting stock in that win against a bad Carolina team. This road matchup is much tougher for New Orleans, taking on a Dallas squad that was undefeated at home in the regular season last year. 

In Week 1, the Cowboys handily beat the Browns on the road. The defense racked up six sacks and two interceptions while holding the Cleveland offense to just 10 points until the final minute of the fourth quarter. The offense, meanwhile, had a down game with only 265 total yards. Expect a better effort from Dak Prescott and Co. 

Despite the Cowboys' comfortable win last week, CeeDee Lamb "only" had 61 receiving yards on five catches. It was a quieter day for Lamb, mostly because the offense took its foot off the gas in the second half. He could've had a much bigger yardage performance with a team-high 10 targets, though. The Dallas offense revolves heavily around the star receiver without many proven weapons besides him. 

Plus, the Saints’ top corner Marshon Lattimore is questionable with a hamstring injury and could be out. If he is sidelined, the New Orleans secondary will have a tough time containing Lamb. Furthermore, Dallas tight end Jake Ferguson could be out - which funnels even more targets Lamb's way. He's the clear alpha in the receiving corps with Brandin Cooks as the only proven guy to take away targets.

According to the spread, if the Saints are trailing, we should see Derek Carr throwing it more than usual. Carr had 19 completions in 23 attempts last week in a game that New Orleans won big after leading the whole way. The Saints were able to lean heavily on the run in the second half. This week's game script should result in more passing attempts for Carr while trying to keep pace with Dallas offensively. Last year, Carr had 20+ completions in 11-of-17 games while averaging 22 completions per contest. In 2022, he had 20+ completions in 10-of-15 games.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Detroit Lions 

  • Leg 1: Lions -6.5 (-135)
  • Leg 2: Amon-Ra St. Brown 90+ Receiving Yards (+130)
  • Leg 3: Rachaad White Over 3.5 Receptions (-135)

The Buccaneers and Lions are both coming off wins in Week 1. Tampa Bay convincingly defeated the Commanders while Detroit survived in overtime against the Rams. Despite the win, we shouldn't put too much stock in the Bucs' result last week because it came at home against a rebuilding team and a rookie QB making his first NFL start. Things get much tougher on the road here against one of the top NFC contenders.

In last week's win, Amon-Ra St. Brown barely made a splash with only 3 catches for 16 yards. It was St. Brown's lowest yardage total in a game since October 2022. Meanwhile, Jameson Williams stole the headlines with 121 yards and a touchdown. Look for St. Brown to be much more involved and a bigger part of the Lions' offensive game plan this week. The Tampa secondary is already banged up with Antoine Winfield Jr. out and three other corners dealing with injuries. 

Rachaad White proved last year that he's a real pass-catching threat out of the backfield with 64 catches and 549 yards. Last week, White had six catches for 75 yards, and it looks like he'll be plenty involved in the passing attack once again. The Buccaneers will likely be trailing and throwing more this weekend. That kind of game script calls for White to see more dump-off targets from Baker Mayfield. The running back averaged 3.8 receptions per game last season with 3+ catches in seven of Tampa's eight losses.

Indianapolis Colts at Green Bay Packers

  • Leg 1: Under 43.5 Total Points (-160)
  • Leg 2: Josh Jacobs 75+ Rushing Yards (+125)
  • Leg 3: Malik Willis Under 166.5 Passing Yards (-115)

The Packers offense took a big hit, literally, in Week 1 with Jordan Love suffering a knee injury. Malik Willis is now the starter with Love out and it should force Green Bay to go with a run-focused offensive gameplan. Willis just joined the team via trade at the end of training camp and presumably has little connection with the receiving corps. Expect Matt LeFleur to call a conservative game for Willis to limit the mistakes while keeping it on the ground and controlling clock. 

Meanwhile, the Indianapolis offense was very underwhelming last week despite putting up 27 points. Anthony Richardson went 9-for-19 through the air and Jonathan Taylor averaged just 3.0 yards per carry on 16 attempts. The Colts benefited from two long touchdown catches and a blocked punt - which masked some of the offensive inefficiencies. 

As mentioned above, the Packers will likely go with a run-heavy offensive game plan with Jordan Love out and Malik Willis starting. Expect a ton of carries for Josh Jacobs as the bell-cow back. He ran for 84 yards on 16 carries in Week 1, averaging an impressive 5.3 yards per carry. Meanwhile, the Colts got gashed on the ground last week with Joe Mixon racking up 159 yards on 30 carries. 

To finish off this Same Game Parlay, let's continue with the theme of the Packers offense. It's highly doubtful that Green Bay will let Malik Willis sling the ball around. He may hit a long ball or two, but most of his attempts should be in the shorter range for easy completions. For the most part, though, bank on a rush-centric offense with Willis' passing yards on the lower end.

New York Jets at Tennessee Titans 

  • Leg 1: Titans +3.5 (-110)
  • Leg 2: Tony Pollard 60+ Rushing Yards (+155)
  • Leg 3: Breece Hall 100+ Rushing+Receiving Yards (-140)

The Jets and Titans both try to get into the win column this weekend following their season-opening losses. The New York defense could feel a hangover after being on the field for nearly 39 minutes of possession and 70 offensive plays by the 49ers last week. It's a tough spot for the Jets coming off the Monday night loss on the road and now playing on a short week in Tennessee. Aaron Rodgers and the offense also left a lot to be desired in the opener and may need another week or two to start clicking. 

Meanwhile, the Titans probably should've won last week as they led 17-3 at halftime. The Bears then outscored Tennessee 21-0 in the second half to pull out the victory. Expect a better effort from the Titans as they try to rebound from the blown lead. At least the defense held Caleb Williams and Chicago's veteran offensive weapons in check for most of the afternoon. 

After joining the Titans in the offseason, Tony Pollard looks like he'll have a huge role in the offense. He ran for 82 yards on 16 yards in Week 1, averaging 5.1 yards per carry. Pollard is healthy right now and Tennessee should lean on him - especially after Will Levis threw two picks last week. The Jets' run defense just got torn up by 49ers backup RB Jordan Mason for 147 yards. 

The Jets may have been out of sync offensively last week, but one thing was certain. Breece Hall will have a big role in the attack either way. The bell-cow back saw 16 carries for 54 yards and had five catches for 39 yards in the loss. He should see 20+ touches on a weekly basis early on this season, especially with Rodgers getting his legs under him. On pure volume alone, 100+ total yards is always in the cards for a guy with Hall's talent. He averaged 93.2 total yards per game last year and that was with bad QB play and some terrible overall offensive performances.

San Francisco 49ers at Minnesota Vikings 

  • Leg 1: Brock Purdy Over 243.5 Passing Yards (-120)
  • Leg 2: Deebo Samuel Over 4.5 Receptions (+100)
  • Leg 3: Justin Jefferson 80+ Receiving Yards (-120) 

Even with Christian McCaffery out last week, the 49ers were plenty productive on offense with 32 points and 401 total yards. They also did it against a Jets defense believed to be one of the best in the league. Even on the road here, Minnesota's defense is an easier matchup for Kyle Shanahan's squad. The Vikings held the Giants to six points last week, but that may be more about New York's struggles. 

Brock Purdy's passing yards line has clear value here with CMC out again. He threw for 231 yards last week despite the 49ers having the win locked down by the fourth quarter. Plus, that was in the same game that Jordan Mason ran for 147 yards. That won't happen again and the Vikings should keep this close enough to ensure more work for Purdy. He had at least 242 pass yards in 14-of-19 games last year and averaged 266 yards per contest. 

Amid San Francisco's offense successes last week, Deebo Samuel had a relatively quiet game by his standards. The 49ers' wideout finished with 54 receiving yards on five catches but had a team-high nine targets. With McCaffery out, Samuel becomes an even bigger part of the offensive game plan. The Vikings also allowed two Giants WRs to have 5+ catches last week. 

As for Minnesota's offense, let's get Justin Jefferson into the mix. The Vikings' top receiver had just 59 yards on four catches last week. However, the offense went into cruise control by the fourth quarter and Jefferson wasn't needed as much. The Vikings will surely be forced to throw more to keep pace with San Fran here. Jefferson had 80+ yards in seven of 10 games last year and averaged 107.4 yards per game.

Seattle Seahawks at New England Patriots 

  • Leg 1: Seahawks -3.5 (+102)
  • Leg 2: Rhamondre Stevenson Under 63.5 Rushing Yards (-120)
  • Leg 3: Geno Smith Over 21.5 Passing Completions (-115)

Just as everyone predicted, the Patriots pulled off the outright road upset over Cincinnati in the season opener and carry a 1-0 record into Week 2. As impressive as the win was, New England is bound to regress back to a bottom-tier team. It's still a rookie head coach with Jacoby Brissett at quarterback and many unproven offensive weapons around him. The Seahawks, meanwhile, took care of Denver last week and should have an easier time against the Pats here. 

Rhamondre Stevenson racked up 120 rushing yards on 25 carries last week. However, he benefited from a positive game script with the Patriots leading 10-0 at halftime and 13-0 late into the fourth quarter. New England will likely be playing from behind for some or most of this game, so Stevenson shouldn't see that big of a workload again. Don't forget, this is still a guy who averaged 51.6 ypg last year and had fewer than 60 yards in 9-of-12 games. 

In Week 1, Geno Smith finished 18-for-25 through the air for 171 yards. Those 18 completions were actually on the lower end for Smith compared to last season. The Seattle QB had at least 18 completions in 12-of-14 games a year ago and averaged 23.1 per contest. He also had 22+ completions in 9-of-14 games. There's value on the Over, especially since Joe Burrow went 21-for-29 against the Pats’ defense last week.

New York Giants at Washington Commanders 

  • Leg 1: Over 40.5 Total Points (-157)
  • Leg 2: Jayden Daniels 50+ Rushing Yards (-135) 
  • Leg 3: Wan'Dale Robinson Over 4.5 Receptions (+115)

The Giants and Commanders are both coming off Week 1 losses and now face off in an early-season divisional matchup. Both offenses underperformed last week and should be more efficient and productive this time around against a pair of weaker defenses. Sam Darnold had a 113.2 QB rating against New York's defense while Baker Mayfield had a 146.4 QB rating against Washington. We know Daniel Jones can be better as a passer and Jayden Daniels should be more comfortable under center with a start under his belt and playing at home here. 

Speaking of Daniels, let's add a prop of his into this SGP. If you're familiar with Daniels from his college days, you know he likes to run. Last year at LSU, he racked up 1,134 rushing yards en route to Heisman honors. This carried over to the NFL when Daniels ran for 88 yards and two scores on 16 carries in Week 1. In these early weeks of the season, we'll likely see Daniels rely on his scrambling and dual-threat ability more as he gets comfortable running the offense. 

On the Giants' side of things offensively, Wan'Dale Robinson was a clear favorite target for Daniel Jones in the passing game in Week 1. Robinson's 12 targets led the team as he finished with 44 yards on six receptions. Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton may be higher on the depth chart, but Robinson will be busy in the slot this season as Jones looks his way plenty for quick, easy completions. The Commanders' secondary allowed Chris Godwin (8 receptions for 83 yards) and Mike Evans (5 for 61) to have decent games last week.

Los Angeles Chargers at Carolina Panthers

  • Leg 1: Chargers Team Total Over 23.5 Points (+124)
  • Leg 2: J.K. Dobbins 60+ Rushing Yards (-105)
  • Leg 3: J.K. Dobbins Anytime Touchdown (+145)

The Panthers may have the worst defense in the league this year. Those defensive struggles were very evident in Week 1 when the Saints put up 47 points and 379 total yards against them. Look for the Chargers to take advantage of this soft matchup. They scored 22 points last week against the Raiders despite Justin Herbert only throwing for 144 yards. They made three field goals, though, so the offense easily could've done more damage. 

As the Los Angeles offense sets the tone in this matchup, J.K. Dobbins should play a key role. The Chargers brought in Dobbins and Gus Edwards in the offseason, but the former was the clear better back of the two in Week 1. Dobbins had 135 yards and a TD on 10 carries while Edwards only mustered 26 yards on 11 touches. 

Carolina gave up 180 rushing yards and two rushing scores to New Orleans last week. Alvin Kamara had 83 yards and a score while Jamaal Williams found the end zone as well. We should see Dobbins score in this matchup like he did a week ago. Plus, his 13.5 ypc average last game should earn him more carries moving forward.

Cleveland Browns at Jacksonville Jaguars 

  • Leg 1: Browns +3 (-102)
  • Leg 2: Elijah Moore Over 20.5 Receiving Yards (-120)
  • Leg 3: Foyesade Oluokun Over 10.5 Tackles+Assists (-105)

The Browns got embarrassed in Week 1 with a 33-17 home loss to Dallas. Meanwhile, the Jaguars kept it close with Miami on the road throughout and easily could've pulled the upset. Despite those two results, it's interesting to see Cleveland as only 3-point underdogs on the road in Jacksonville this weekend. The Browns should bounce back offensively while the Jaguars' defense still has holes in it. 

An under-the-radar injury to know in this game is that of Browns tight end David Njoku, who will be out after hurting his ankle last week. Njoku was a safety valve for Deshaun Watson going back to last season, so someone will have to fill that void. Elijah Moore is a prime candidate working out of the slot and being open for quick completions. Moore averaged 37.2 yards in Watson's five full games last season. He had only nine yards on three catches last week but did see six targets, at least. 

Let's roll with a defensive prop to wrap up this SGP. Jaguars linebacker Foyesade Oluokun has been a tackling machine for years now and is no secret to those familiar with tackle props or IDP fantasy leagues. He started right back up in Week 1 with 11 total tackles to lead the Jags. He can easily do it again in this matchup as Cleveland allowed the most tackles per game last season and the most to linebackers as well. Enter Oluokun, who had 10+ total tackles in 10-of-17 games a year ago.

Parlay Odds: +430 at DraftKings Sportsbook

Las Vegas Raiders at Baltimore Ravens

  • Leg 1: Gardner Minshew 200+ Passing Yards (-115)
  • Leg 2: Tre Tucker 25+ Receiving Yards (+145)
  • Leg 3: Derrick Henry Over 65.5 Rushing Yards (-190)

Last week, the Raiders mustered only 10 points and lost by double-digits to the Chargers on the road. We'll probably see a similar result this week on the road at Baltimore. It'll result in a positive game script for Gardner Minshew to chuck it around in catch-up mode. He had 257 yards a week ago and could easily get to 200+ this time around - even if Vegas loses big. Minshew averaged 220.3 pass yards per game in his full games last year and had 200+ in 10-of-15 games. 

As the Raiders will presumably be passing plenty while trailing the Ravens on the road, Tre Tucker could be busy as a top pass-catcher for Gardner Minshew. Tucker only had two receptions on three targets for 22 yards last week, so expectations aren't exactly high. Still, his 78% snap share in Week 1 is encouraging. He's a deep threat who can catch a long ball or two, especially against Baltimore's man defense. 

On the Ravens' offensive side of things, let's bank on a big workload for Derrick Henry. In Week 1, Lamar Jackson was busy running the ball - carrying it 16 times for 122 yards. Meanwhile, Henry only saw 13 carries for 46 yards. If Baltimore was smart, the roles should be reversed in terms of carry volume this week. 

Parlay Odds: +440 at DraftKings Sportsbook

Los Angeles Rams at Arizona Cardinals

  • Leg 1: Cooper Kupp Over 7.5 Receptions (-140)
  • Leg 3: Cooper Kupp Over 130.5 Receiving Yards (+450)
  • Leg 3: Cooper Kupp Anytime Touchdown (-135)

If you missed it, the Rams lost a big weapon in their offense during Sunday Night Football last weekend. Puka Nacua, whose 1,486 receiving yards led the team last year, is on the IR with a knee injury. This leaves Cooper Kupp as the prime pass-catcher for Matthew Stafford moving forward.

In Nacua's absence, Kupp should see a ton of targets as the main target in the Rams offense. That was very evident last week when he racked up 14 catches on 21 targets for 110 yards. In this week's matchup against Arizona, let's roll with a trio of Kupp props as Stafford leans on him heavily. 

Last year, Kupp had seven receptions for 148 yards and a touchdown against Arizona in his second game of the season. We could see a repeat of that performance in Week 2 of this season. The Cardinals' secondary was vulnerable a year ago and allowed Josh Allen to carve them up last week. It's time for Stafford and Kupp to connect early and often in this matchup.

Pittsburgh Steelers at Denver Broncos

  • Leg 1: Broncos +3.5 (-145)
  • Leg 2: Najee Harris 60+ Rushing Yards (-125)
  • Leg 3: Bo Nix 175+ Passing Yards (-115)

In Week 1, the Broncos fell short on the road in Seattle, 26-20. Still, it was encouraging that Denver was even that close in a tough road environment despite Bo Nix throwing for only 138 yards with two picks. The offense put up just 231 total yards and is likely due for positive regression back at home for this week's matchup. 

The Steelers, meanwhile, survived on the road with an 18-10 win over Atlanta last week. However, the Pittsburgh offense was very underwhelming with Justin Fields throwing for 158 yards as multiple drives stalled out for field goals. It's a tough spot for the Steelers to play a second straight road game - especially in Denver for this one. Plus, their Week 1 win had a lot to do with the Falcons' disappointing showing offensively as well. 

With Arthur Smith as the Pittsburgh offensive coordinator now, the Steelers offense will be more run-focused than others across the league. We saw Najee Harris get 20 carries for 70 yards in Week 1 as he operated as the bell-cow. That should continue this week with Harris seeing a healthy volume of carries. Backup RB Jaylen Warren only had two carries and is apparently not 100% right now. Smith loves using lead backs when he can and Harris is that for Pittsburgh. 

As mentioned above, the Broncos' offense should have a better performance at home this week than it did in Week 1 on the road. It was notable to see Nix throw it 42 times, which tells us that the coaching staff is comfortable letting him throw it around. If he's chucking it that much, Nix is set up for a larger yardage total in Week 2. The Steelers allowed Kirk Cousins to throw for 155 yards on just 26 attempts last week as well.

Cincinnati Bengals at Kansas City Chiefs

  • Leg 1: Bengals +6 (-108)
  • Leg 2: Joe Burrow 225+ Passing Yards (-155)
  • Leg 3: Rashee Rice Over 66.5 Receiving Yards (-120)

The Bengals and Chiefs have a lengthy AFC rivalry at this point and Week 2 brings us the latest matchup. Cincinnati will look to bounce back after a disappointing home loss to New England last week while the Chiefs are coming off their last-second victory over Baltimore. Those two results present some value on the Bengals as they have a real shot at getting an outright road win this weekend. 

Joe Burrow and the Cincy offense looked a bit out of sync in Week 1. Burrow had just 164 passing yards as the Bengals put up 10 points. Expect a bounce-back effort from one of the best quarterbacks in the league. He averaged 230.9 pass yards per game last year and had at least 222 yards in 6-of-10 games. 

Rashee Rice burst onto the scene last year as a top receiving weapon in the Kansas City offense. That's carried over into 2024 as the second-year wideout put up 103 yards on seven receptions in Week 1. His nine targets also led the team last week. Rice is now a proven pass-catcher for Patrick Mahomes and he can easily get 70+ yards in any given game.
