The NFL's injuries are starting to pile up, especially at the quarterback position. A lot of notable starting quarterbacks likely won't start in today's games.
However, there are still many quarterbacks on the board that we can attack and earn a profit on.
Here are three player props to consider for the quarterback position today.
Check my other articles for the different positions, including running backs and wide receivers.

NFL QB Cheat Sheet Week 7
Geno Smith Over 251.5 Yards Passing (-110) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The Arizona Cardinals have one of the worst defenses in the NFL. The pass rush is fine. However, the secondary has been abysmal to begin the year.
The Cardinals have allowed nearly 400 yards of offense, including 266.3 yards per game in the air.
That would be enough for Geno Smith. Smith is coming off a poor game against the Bengals. He had no touchdowns and two interceptions but still managed 326 yards passing in that game. He's hit at least 296 yards in three of four games, with the only outlier coming against the Giants on Monday Night.
The Seahawks didn't have to throw the ball in that game. But they'll have plenty of success today.
Brian Hoyer Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (+154) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Most of the time, Brian Hoyer is the worst quarterback when he starts. But not today! He's the best between him and Tyson Bagent. The Bears also have one of the secondaries in football, allowing 276.2 yards per game.
Having a veteran lead the Raiders should help the team stay consistent. The Bears are typically good against the run, allowing only 89.5 yards per game. Therefore, Hoyer should be expected to throw the ball a lot.
With Jakobi Meyers and Davante Adams receiving, Hoyer will get his.
Patrick Mahomes Over 284.5 Passing Yards (-110) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The Chargers have allowed 317.8 yards passing per game this season.
I don't think the Chiefs blow the Chargers out of this game. But that's why I think Mahomes has a big day passing. The Chiefs won't milk the clock or try and run the football down the Chargers' throat.
They will rely on Mahomes and Travis Kelce to make big plays down the field.
Mahomes has already thrown for 1,593 yards with 11 touchdowns and five interceptions. He's had better starts to seasons, but Mahomes and the Chiefs have Los Angeles' number lately.
I like Mahomes to earn another 300-yard game against a Chargers secondary in the bottom five of the entire league.
