NFL Player Prop #1: Gus Edwards Over 37.5 Rushing Yards (-135)
Gus Edwards has only played in five games this season, but when he's played he's been effective. He is averaging 52.2 rushing yards per game and has exceeded 50 yards on the ground every time he's gotten at least 10 carries. That includes the first matchup against Cleveland, in which he rushed for a season-high 66 yards and scored two touchdowns.
The Browns have one of the worst rushing defenses in the NFL this season, and with Lamar Jackson out, I'd expect the Ravens to lean on their running backs as much as possible in this game. Gus Edwards should benefit from that and get plenty of carries.
NFL Player Prop #2: Amari Cooper Over 4.5 Receptions (+110)
Amari Cooper is one of the most targeted receivers in the league, ranking 10th with 109 targets heading into this game. The Cleveland quarterback change hasn't resulted in his targets dropping either, as he's received 16 targets in the two games since then. Those targets haven't converted into receptions, as he only brought in six of those targets over the past two weeks, but that could change this week.
The Ravens have a bottom-10 pass defense, and some top receivers have exceeded the 4.5 reception mark against them this season. Diontae Johnson, who ranks just ahead of Cooper with 113 targets for the year, hauled in six passes last week against Baltimore. Tyreek Hill had 11 catches against the Ravens. Amari Cooper only caught three passes against Baltimore in the first matchup, but only saw four targets. Considering one of them was a big play for 55 yards, I wouldn't be surprised if they make a concentrated effort to get him more involved this time around.

NFL Player Prop #3: Justin Tucker Over 6.5 Total Kicking Points (-115)
Justin Tucker was responsible for 11 points when the Ravens played the Browns earlier this season, and he was the difference in a three-point Ravens win. There have only been two games this season in which Tucker wasn't responsible for at least seven points. The Ravens have struggled to finish drives with end zones, resulting in a lot of Tucker field goal attempts.
Since Week 4, he's attempted multiple field goals in every game but one. Six times this season he's attempted three or more field goals. He also happens to be the most accurate kicker in NFL history, so he hits often. With Lamar Jackson out, don't be surprised if the Ravens have to settle for more field goals than they'd like, resulting in more Tucker attempts.
