agree with you from a betting perspective cincy with the points gotta be the play, more because their defense has been surprisingly good. i dont think we see a lot of big numbers from anyone, id expect both qbs to be solid but not spectacular as this has hard nosed afc north battle written all over it. not that both qbs cant appraoch 20 points but i dont see monster games unless lamar has a day on the ground which possible, think borrow be in the 250-270 range, maybe 2 tds. i would avoid chase, just cause id think ravens focus on him and secondary gettting healthy,, agree higgens might be worth a flyer if ya wanna be sneaky or maybe bungal te but for most part ill be avoiding this game.. should be a heck of a game tho!! im very tempted to bet cincy with the points.CIN/BAL
CIN DVOA Matchup is meh vs P/RB D
BAL DVOA Matchup is bad vs P/RB D
2nd slowest pace of play, 1st slowest of main slate (bad) 3rd lowest O/U of main slate.
Freeman? Has the worst ALY push of the week.
Burrow has the 5th worst ASR (3rd worst of main slate)
I actually like cincy to keep this within 6.5, but not sure how much I want to attack this game from a prop/dfs perspective.
Higgins took a step back in snaps last week (57%), but I think that's because the game was out of reach and he still tied chase (and mixon) for team lead in targets (6)... I wouldn't count him out while people are still flocking to chase. The game script does help here, as they are dogs.
Andrews has been targeted 9 times a game past 4 weeks. Despite 2 of those 4 weeks his team blowing out the competition and seeing 2 of his worst snap rates (W4 - Denver, W6 - Chargers). What's great about him, is he gets targets deep as well. He's led this team in air yards twice (past 2 weeks) And has an aDOT of 10.33 L4.
Those would be the one-offs I'd consider most. I won't talk anyone out of trying to be sneaky and grabbing one of these defenses, but full disclosure, I haven't looked at pricing yet. And not sure I want that if its going to be a slow game where they may lean on their running.
WAS/GBP
WAS DVOA Matchup is great vs RB D, good vs P D.
GBP DVOA Matchup is great vs P D, meh vs RB D.
6th fastest pace of play (ok). O/U Clumped with others.
Gibson has 7th best ALY push, 5th best of main slate.
Heinicke has 6th best ASR spot (5th of main slate).
Rodgers has 5th best ASR spot (4th of main slate).
Not sure what I want to do here just yet as the pace of play is a bit deceiving. It's to opposites. Washington fast, packers slow. Problem is, packers may not have as much success running as they do passing, but rodgers can dink and dunk his way to clock draining drives. However, there's always a scenario where washington jumps to a lead, and that's where this game can become fun. I don't want to over exposed myself, but a mini game stack can work here.
Reason for not getting over exposed, Rodgers has reached exactly 40 drop backs twice (and thats not pass attempts), otherwise he has been 33 or lower --- that's bad for production. The positive? He's still efficient (3 times over 330+ Air yards). The other positive? His throws are concentrated! Adams for the year has 35.6% of the target share. So over 1/3 of the time, he's look his way. He's averaging 11 targets a game (despite 5 targets last week, and not playing a full game in week 1's blowout loss to saints). He's TWICE had over 230 AIR YARDS (253/234 W3/5), and washingtons defense is 2021's, not 2020's.
I guess there's also a scenario packers lead, washington plays fast, and gives more opp to jones/dillon, but I'm not playing it that way, and don't want to overexpose myself either. Now if you want to play out washington getting a sizable lead, Gibson/Adams can make sense, he could get 20~ carries/few targets. If you think its a bit back and forth, Mclaurin/Adams makes sense. Mclaurin is almost like adams. Throwing W1 out (where heinicke didn't start the game off, and vs the chargers P Def). He's averaging 10.8 targets/game, and 140.6 air yards ---- those are massive, just make sure he is playing! If you want a cheap option in Brown (if samual is out) or RSJ, I won't talk you off of it.

Check edmonds status... if he's out, all will be firing up connor. I still think one can eat well though tomorrow.
Gl all, either back between 12 to 1 tomorrow, or not until later.
goff u 266.5 pass yds and henry u 147.5 rush/rec yds (holding my nose) only props i got today
obviously Kelce gets slot work. I've been debating throwing Pringle in some DFS lineups as a cheap optionthoughts on kc other wrs not named cheetah? i saw the scopey post about robinson out snapping hardman but i also see titans are terrible defending the slot, which one those guys lines up in slot the most? i know pringle is there 70% of his snaps but not sure how many snaps he get? anyone have a good idea which most likely to get the slot work? i know Ried does a great job putting everyone in that spot so makes it tough!
it's tough these days with defense being practically nonexistent lol but i've been trying to lean towards unders this year. so many variables can skew towards unders- injuries, game script, coaching, etc.oh man,, up to this point i been more a over or pass guy.. only unders been the prime time games where i couldnt simply move on to another game.. hit brady under against philly but it was super close and scary as he had like 200 by halftime!! gl

NBA 3 point props (very new to this but i am 5-1 so far with the only loss coming on Dame last night cause he sat on bench last 15 min as portland had a huge lead, i hadnt really considering that yet as im very new to these!):
joe harris over 2.5
Harden over 2.5
bron over 2.5.. he has come out firing from deep this year and been on fire, he did this same thing the beginning of last season, think he knows it be better to rest his body during regular season and let Russ do all the attacking the rim!!! might as well get it while the getting good!!!!
that it for me,,, gl everyone
Easy winner on aj brown…
ugh bad pick, but of course was to 2.5K smythe!!hoping for a miami TD here

I played collins over 44.5 rush yds…may play over rush attempts too. Carroll talking about really pounding the rock to the media (might be smokescreen, but i just can’t see him letting geno air it out). Dunno why hawks pounding the rock is news tho, thats kinda what they do. Hell, collins had 20 carries last week, and 15 two weeks ago. I think it goes under too…supposed to be similar weather to last night in sf game, if not worse. Saints get starting DE Davenport and LB Alexander back this week. How the hell does seattle get to 20 pts here, without def/st score? Saints more ball control, field position, play D than ever with Jameis throwing for sub-200 average. Just don’t see where the pts come from, regardless of hawks suspect D.
Seeing -200 for at least 1. Over 1.5 tds @ +250I’m a little nervous Collins pulls up lame. Only reason I wouldn’t play over carries or yards. That weather prob not ideal for a groin strain. He didn’t practice all week till Saturday. Over carries be a lock if he stays healthy! Pete prob likes Russ being out cause he can run all he wants without getting any the “let Russ cook” backlash! My guess is they hand it off 35+ times tonight assuming they don’t fall behind early which you wouldn’t think happen at home in this weather.
Gonna see how expensive it is for kumara anytime td, or maybe even over 1.5/“at least” 2 option if 1 too expensive. He only has 1 freaking rushing td on the year, that nuts, he has caught a few so only 1 game without a td, gotta figure he bout due to bust out for a couple scores. Plus Hill gone now so he won’t be stealing any the goal line work!
