Default NFL Week 8 Player Prop Thread

I have a terrible record so far at picking these, so I'm leaning towards not placing any bets this week. There seems to be a huge variance in week-to-week individual player stats. I'm sure I'll get sucked in to at least one, though. Here's a few that seem interesting:

D. Anderson vs. M. Bulger, fantasy pts.
The line is Anderson -3 on Bodog but only -2 on Diamond. I expect this to be a high-scoring game where both QBs could put up some big numbers. Anderson -2 seems like the best bet, but meh.

B. Edwards vs T. Holt, fantasy pts.
On Bodog this is Edwards -1.5 (-125), Holt +1.5 (-115). On Diamond it's pick em with Edwards -130 and Holt even. Pretty significant line difference, which makes the Holt +1.5 look pretty good. It seems like receiver vs. receiver matchups often come down to whichever one happens to score a touchdown when the other doesn't, and that is pretty random given two reasonably similar receivers.

L. Coles over 12 fantasy pts (-115)
Coles is averaging over 17 fantasy pts/game this year. Buffalo's pass defense is 31st in yardage allowed and 23rd in TD's allowed.
