This New Orleans-Arizona same-game parlay features only three legs, but still pays out +380 odds if it hits. The SGP starts with a bet on Kamara’s pass game role that has expanded with Andy Dalton under center.

SGP Pick #1: Alvin Kamara 4+ Receptions

Jameis Winston is one of the worst QBs to maximize Kamara’s skillset because he rarely checks the ball down. With Winston running the offense, Kamara totaled only five catches in two games.

Dalton on the other hand, is the check-down king. Kamara’s caught at least six passes in two games with the Red Rifle, seeing a total of 15 targets.

The Saints enter this game as 2.5-point underdogs on TNF, and even if the game script doesn’t go the way oddsmakers project, Kamara is an excellent bet to grab at least four balls.

Alvin Kamara was by far the biggest piece of the Saints offense today.

It’s no surprise he’s heavily featured in the Saints vs Cardinals player props, but receptions aren’t the only category he’s popping in.

SGP Pick #2: Alvin Kamara Anytime TD

One of the most shocking things about this NFL season so far is that Kamara has yet to score a TD. This is the same guy who found the end zone 21 times in 2020. Based on the usage he’s seen over the past two weeks and the New Orleans injury situation, tonight looks like the night he snaps his dry spell.

Probably the most shocking stat of the season is that Alvin Kamara doesn't have a TD yet through six weeks.

That needs to change tonight.

Kamara has had 29 and 25 touches respectively over the past two games, accumulating 318 total yards. The Saints have scored 55 points over that stretch, and if the offense keeps humming along Kamara is going to get his. The matchup isn’t imposing, as Arizona ranks 20th in total defense per DVOA, and 24th against the pass.

That fact isn’t lost on one of our experts, who’s buying New Orleans in the Saints vs Cardinals picks.

SGP Pick #3: Chris Olave Over 49.5 Receiving Yards

I realize we’re putting a lot of faith in Dalton by targeting a second New Orleans receiving prop, but the pass-catching cupboard really is bare outside of Kamara and Olave.

Olave returns this week after missing Sunday’s loss with a concussion and is looking to reach at least 50 receiving yards for a fifth straight outing.

Chris Olave: “I’m ready to get back to it, help the quarterbacks out”

He’s been 100% cleared and expects to be out there on Thursday. #Saints

The Ohio State product has seen 39 targets over his past four games alone, including 26 in three outings with Dalton under center. Apologies to Tre’Quan Smith and Marcus Callaway, but Olave is the only legit wide receiver left for the Saints with Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry down, something Dalton clearly recognizes.

New Orleans is drawing only 36% of the ATS wagers in the Saints vs Cardinals public betting splits. If bettors are correct, a pass-heavy game script is likely from Dalton in catch-up mode boosting Olave’s ceiling even higher.
