Multiple superstars won’t be on the field during the Week 3 NFL schedule, and Sunday’s game between the Rams and 49ers is a prime example. San Francisco is without running back Christian McCaffrey and wide receiver Deebo Samuel, while Los Angeles is missing wide receivers Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp. This presents an opportunity for players to step up to both teams and also gives bettors a chance to find value with other NFL player props. Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson is the top pick for quarterback Matthew Stafford, with an over/under of 44.5 receiving yards in the Week 3 NFL prop bets.
The 49ers still have weapons like Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings, giving quarterback Brock Purdy a way to go Over 231.5 passing yards and come through for anyone backing his NFL own odds. Is this one of the Week 3 NFL prop bets you should consider?

Built with cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques from the SportsLine Data Team, AI Predictions and AI Scores are generated for every game. The AI predictions are determined by statistically learning the historical data of each team then quantitatively evaluating the strength of the opponent’s defense by assigning a numerical value out of 100 called a match score.
Once a forecast is formulated, the AI rating is generated using the forecast, the competition score and the odds of the market. For example, you might see a 5-star rating on an overbet if a team is facing a bad defense, their prediction is different from the line and the odds are in their favor.
In addition, SportsLine AI is the first fully automated forecasting model at SportsLine. It continuously refreshes the most recent data available and can help you spot the biggest differences in the lines. Last season, SportsLine’s AI PickBot hit a whopping 1,674 4.5- and 5-star prop picks. Anyone who followed those NFL picks is very up.
For NFL Week 3, the AI PickBot estimated the NFL player prop odds and provided prop picks for every position and every available prop market for NFL betting. You can only see the AI player predictions for NFL Week 3 at SportsLine.
Top Week 3 QB, RB, WR player prop picks
Here’s a look at some of the top Week 3 NFL props from SportsLine AI:
Quarterback: Sam Darnold, Minnesota Vikings: 237.5 passing yards
Darnold is among the biggest surprises through the first two weeks of the season, leading Minnesota to a 2-0 record. He threw for 268 yards in last week’s win over the 49ers, but now he’ll face a Houston Texans defense that just sacked Caleb Williams seven times in Week 2. The AI PickBot predicts that Darnold throws for just 176.4 yards on average, rating the under as a 5 star play. The pick: Under 237.5 passing yards. See more NFL props here.
Running back: Najee Harris, Pittsburgh Steelers: 14.5 total carries
Harris has been a workhorse for the Steelers through the first two weeks of the season. He has already collected 37 carries through his first two games, finishing with 17 or more carries in each contest. Harris was held out of practice on Wednesday as a rest day, so he will be fresh for Pittsburgh’s matchup against the Chargers on Sunday. The AI PickBot predicts that Harris will finish with 18.9 carries against Los Angeles, rating the upside as a 5-star play. The pick: Over 14.5 total carries. See more NFL props here.
