Although the Arizona Cardinals have lost five games in a row, you can't blame that skid on quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who has balled out since replacing the injured Kyler Murray.
My NFL picks have been riding the hot hand with Brissett the last few weeks, and I'm betting on him again with a pass-heavy script expected against Houston.
Brissett and a trio of quarterbacks headline my best free NFL player props for Week 15.

Best Bets and NFL Player Props for Week 15
Prop pick: Jacoby Brissett Over 37.5 passing attempts
Jacoby Brissett has thrown the ball at least 40 times in five straight contests, and he's averaging 46.8 pass attempts per game over that span.
The Arizona Cardinals have struggled to run the ball and have pretty much abandoned that part of their offense, with their passing play percentage sitting at an absurd 75% over the last four weeks.
They are 9.5-point road underdogs against the red-hot Houston Texans on Sunday, which makes it even more likely that they'll lean on their aerial attack after falling behind.
Prop pick: Tyler Shough Under 21.5 rushing yards
The New Orleans Saints have been getting some strong performances from rookie quarterback Tyler Shough. The second-round pivot scrambled for 55 yards on seven carries last week, but 34 of those yards came on a single run.
Shough had been held below 20 rushing yards in four of his previous five starts, and his previous career high was a 22-yard game against Atlanta. He also didn’t run much in college. On Sunday, Shough faces a Carolina Panthers defense that does a great job of containing QBs on the ground.
Carolina allows the fewest rushing yards per game (10.2) and the second-fewest yards per rush attempt (2.8) to opposing QBs. The Panthers are dead last in the league in pressure rate, so they rarely flush quarterbacks out of the pocket.
Prop pick: Trevor Lawrence Under 0.5 interceptions
The New York Jets defense doesn't have a single interception through 13 games — the longest run without a pick to start a season in NFL history. Their pass defense got even worse at the trade deadline after trading away top interior rusher Quinnen Williams and shutdown corner Sauce Gardner.
On Sunday, they head to the Sunshine State to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars and quarterback Trevor Lawrence. While his numbers don't jump off the page, Lawrence is getting more comfortable in Liam Coen's offense and has improved his efficiency over the course of the year.
Lawrence hasn't thrown a pick in his last two games, and he ranks fourth among all QBs in success rate since Jacksonville's bye in Week 8. With the Jags listed as 13-point home favorites on Sunday, he'll throw fewer passes and will be less likely to force the ball into tight coverage.
