Week 17 Bets (Sides, Totals, Etc.)

BetsGameWagerOddsBookUnitsNotes:
1HOU/LACTexans ML102DK1The Chargers have been playing well of late, but this matchup is a tough one. The Chargers offensive line is their major issue on offense, and the Texans are the best defense in the league to take advantage of that.
2BAL/GBUnder 38.5-105DK1We are getting two backup QBs in this one, and it should be exceptionally run heavy. Both teams already want to pound the rock, but their run rates should be even more elevated given their QB situation. Combine that with decent defenses and an outdoor game in Green Bay at the end of the December, and we should get a slugfest here with lots of running.
3ARI/CINOver 53-1103651Neither of these teams can stop anyone on defense, but their offenses are both potent enough to match scores here. The only concern is how annoyingly run heavy they can both get in certain game scripts, but I think we see enough big plays on each side to get some fireworks.
4NE/NYJPatriots o27.5 points-120DK1The Jets defense is an abomination right now, particularly through the air. The Pats have some receiver injuries, but their WR depth is not much of a drop off from the Boutte, Hollins and Pop grouping, and they should be able to have their way with the Jets defense, just as basically every team has done in recent weeks.

Week 17 Props (& Pick Em)

Make sure to check back on Sunday mornings, or follow our updates in Discord for any new props on Sunday morning!

BetsGameWagerOddsBookUnitsNotes:
1NYG/LVAshton Jeanty o68.5 rushing yards-113BetRivers1The Giants remain one of the very worst run defenses in the NFL, and the Raiders are going to feed him the rock as much as possible here in the toilet bowl matchup with no Brock Bowers.
2NYG/LVTyrone Tracy o57.5 rushing yards-1103651The Giants have gone exceptionally run heavy here down the stretch, and that should continue in this matchup with the lowly Raiders. Tracy will share touches with Devin Singletary, but his volume still remains high, and he's gone over this number in 5 of 6 games. Plus, the Raiders have shut down Maxx Crosby, their best defender up front.
3BAL/GBLuke Musgrave o18.5 receiving yards-116DK2The Packers will be a bit more run heavy with Malik Willis at QB, but this number is still far too low for Musgrave. He was ceding a lot of snaps to John Fitzpatrick even after Tucker Kraft went down, but Fitz is now out for the season as well. That led to 76% of snaps last week, and 3 targets on 24 Packer pass attempts, finishing with 38 yards.
4NO/TENTyjae Spears o16.5 receiving yards-1103652The Titans made Spears more of a focal point of the offense last week, and I am personally buying into the start of that trend. He'll get his carries too, but he's a particularly effective part of the passing game given their lack of pass catching weapons. He turned 5 targets into 5 catches for 53 yards last week, and he's gone over this number in a whopping 9 of 11 games this season.
5TB/MIABucky Irving o60.5 rushing yards-1103651The Bucs need to win this game, but they also need to get Bucky going ahead of their huge clash with the Panthers. They should be able to play with a lead, or at worst neutral game script, against this Dolphins team, and even in a down season, Bucky has gone over this number in 5 of 8 games while averaging 66 yards per game.
6CHI/SFDJ Moore o44.5 receiving yards-1103651Big game for both teams here, but the Bears will be without Rome Odunze again. That should lead to the targets being funneled to DJM and Burden (in his return) against a really, really leaky Niners defense.
7CHI/SFLuther Burden o45.5 receiving yards-110DK1Big game for both teams here, but the Bears will be without Rome Odunze again. That should lead to the targets being funneled to DJM and Burden (in his return) against a really, really leaky Niners defense.
8CHI/SFJauan Jennings o56.5 receiving yards-110MGM1Pearsall and Kittle are banged up, and even if they play Jennings will be a featured part of the passing game. This number will absolutely rocket up if/when Kittle and/or Pearsall are announced out.
9HOU/LACWoody Marks u51.5 rushing yards-112FD1Woody is in his first game back, and during his absence two things popped up to impact his volume here. Nick Chubb returned to full health after missing most of week 14 and all of week 15, and Jawhar Jordan stepped up in a big way with 188 total yards in 2 games. The coach speak this week indicates they'll use all 3 backs, and this is already a fairly inefficient rushing offense.
10HOU/LACWoody Marks u13.5 rush attempts-125MGM1Adding Woody under rush attempts as well as rush yards.
11HOU/LACJawhar Jordan o10.5 rushing yards-1103651Woody Marks is back, but I don't think he's going to step right back into as much volume as prior to his injury. That's due in large part to the strong play from Jawhar, who put up 188 total yards on 37 total touches over the last two weeks to lead this backfield with Marks banged up. The coach speak this week indicates they'll use all three backs, and I don't think they're just banishing Jawhar to the sideline after his strong play, similar to what they did with Marks himself earlier this season.
