The Minnesota Vikings (5-2) will aim for their first win in a month when they host the Indianapolis Colts (4-4) on Sunday Night Football. Minnesota had a bye in Week 6 before losing to the Lions and Rams, but the Vikings are still 5.5-point home favorites in the latest Vikings vs. Colts odds. Vikings 1uarterback Sam Darnold has thrown for at least 240 yards in three of his last four games, and his over/under for passing yards on Sunday is 251.5 in the Week 9 NFL props. He is facing an Indianapolis pass defense that ranks No. 24 in the league in passing yards allowed per game (227.8), so how should you approach Darnold with your Vikings vs. Colts prop bets?

Meanwhile, Indianapolis benched second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson in favor of veteran Joe Flacco, who has 716 passing yards, seven touchdowns and one interception in three appearances this season. Flacco's passing yards total is 236.5 in the Colts vs. Vikings NFL player props, a number he has only surpassed once in his three games.

Top NFL player prop bets for Vikings vs. Colts

After analyzing Colts vs. Vikings props and examining the dozens of NFL player prop markets, the AI PickBot says Colts running back Jonathan Taylor goes over 72.5 rushing yards. While Colts quarterback Joe Flacco has been efficient in his three appearances, he has finished with fewer than 190 passing yards in two of those games. Taylor missed two of Flacco's outings due to an ankle injury, but he had 88 rushing yards on 21 carries in his lone game with Flacco. 

The 25-year-old had his second-biggest workload of the season in that contest, and the Colts will lean heavily on Taylor again this week. He has gone over 100 rushing yards in his other three games since early September, averaging more than 4.5 yards per carry in all of those outings. Taylor is facing a strong Minnesota run defense on Sunday, but the AI PickBot still has him finishing with 90 rushing yards to earn a 4-star prop rating. See more NFL props here.
