Our favorite NFL best bets, player props, news, and info for Week 6 — featuring Zay Flowers odds, Matthew Stafford odds, and T.J. Hockenson odds.

No Justin Jefferson? No problem! Well, that's maybe not the case, but we're expecting tight end T.J. Hockenson to help fill the void in the Vikings superstar's absence — and he highlights our best Week 6 NFL player props.

Flowers also is third among all NFL WRs with seven missed tackles, so there's definite YAC potential as well, and with consensus projections forecasting more than 60 yards for him on Sunday, I'm expecting him to methodically bury Tennessee's secondary — with a couple of deep plays mixed in — en route to topping this numbers for the fifth time in six career NFL games.

This Sunday, he gets to attack the Cardinals, who are easily the worst defense Stafford will have faced yet: Arizona's defense ranks 31st in pressure percentage , 29th in dropback EPA per play, and 28th in passing yards allowed per game — which is helped by a 202-yard effort vs. Washington in Week 1; remove that game and the Cards have allowed opposing QBs to average 292.5 passing yards per game over the last four weeks.

Hockenson also has a fantastic matchup with the Bears, who lead the NFL with 286 passing yards allowed per game, while playing zone at the fourth-highest rate in the league and allowing 9.0 yards per zone coverage target . Through five games, 24 of Hockenson's 38 targets have come vs. zone coverage and he's converted 75% of those into catches, totaling 142 yards.
