Brett Maher
Under 8.5 Kicking Points (-123, Caesars Sportsbook)

This line is a pretty large bar to clear for Maher even though he has gone north of 8.5 kicking points in each of the last three. Prior to that, he failed to clear 8.5 in six of the previous seven games Dak Prescott started at quarterback.

Now Maher kicks against a Titans team that has allowed over eight kicking points just once since Week 3.

A 10-mph wind hurts Maher just a little bit as well, as his only misses this year have come from over 40 yards.

Overall, Maher is projected to clear 8.5 just 38% of the time, which equates to fair odds around -160. That leaves us plenty of of wiggle room at the current price, and I'd happily bet this to -140.
