The Green Bay Packers face their toughest challenge of the season to date when they visit the Buffalo Bills in Week 8. Here are three of the best prop bets in this matchup.

Ah, just what the Green Bay Packers need, a nice get-right game after losing three straight.

Oh, wait. The Buffalo Bills are next on the schedule? That would be the 5-1 Bills, a team leading the NFL in offense and defense.

It could be a long evening for Matt LaFleur’s team, who may need a miracle to pull off an upset win.

With that in mind, here are three of the best prop bets for the Week 8 matchup.

Best Packers prop bets vs. Bills in Week 8

Aaron Rodgers prop bet:

  • UNDER 1.5 passing touchdowns (-155)

The Bills have allowed just five passing touchdowns in six games this season. While Aaron Rodgers has thrown over 1.5 touchdown passes in five of seven games in 2022, this is his biggest challenge yet.

Moving the ball against the No. 1 defense in the NFL will be difficult. And Rodgers is also running out of wide receivers. Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb are out of this game, while Christian Watson is questionable to play.

Packers prop bet:

  • UNDER 17.5 team total points (-120)

No team is allowing fewer points per game than the Bills. Buffalo is giving up just 13.5 points per contest.

Green Bay, meanwhile, is struggling to score points. The team had just 21 against the Washington Commanders last week, seven of which came on a De’Vondre Campbell pick-six. The offense managed just 14.

A week earlier, the Packers only scored 10 points against the New York Jets at Lambeau Field.

This team is struggling to score points, and they now come up against the league’s top-ranked defense.

Aaron Jones prop bet:

  • OVER 4.5 receptions (+110)

Running the ball against this Bills defense will be a challenge. They are allowing the fewest rushing yards per game in the NFL entering Week 8.

To get the ball in Aaron Jones’ hands, the Packers may need to utilize the short-passing game.

Jones had nine receptions against the Commanders last week. With Allen Lazard ruled out, Aaron Rodgers may have no choice but to keep throwing Jones’ way in this game.
