As the legalization of sports betting continues to explode, more and more people are diving into a new way of speculating on sports. For those just starting off, I broke down some of the basics in my gambling 101 piece. Among every category of bets, player props remain the most beatable in the long run. Last year I hit 59% of my bets for +35 units on the season. The two years prior were much of the same, hitting 57% and 58% of my player props for profitable seasons. I have improved every year and think that trend will continue with new tools. I’ve already fired off a handful of bets for Week 3 and will be adding more here.

Week 2 Review: Last week had so much potential. We ran pretty pure early on. Jaylen Waddle crushed his props quickly, Jarvis Landry played and then was ruled out which cashed our unders and Ja'Marr Chase reeled in a long bomb as we predicted. It got bad thereafter. David Montgomery under 2.5 receptions missed by one catch. Jonathan Taylor saw just one target as the Colts peppered their wide receivers with targets. Russell Gage was borderline pathetic but somehow caught five passes for 28 receiving yards, cashing our under 50 receiving yards bet but busting the under 4.5 receptions. David Johnson went from being the clear third back in the rotation in Week 2 to the clear No. 2, receiving six carries and easily destroying our under. A.J. Dillon didn’t get any goal-line work and ceded touches to Kylin Hill in the waning moments of Green Bay’s win. It was far from my best showing but we now have another week of usage in the books and a better understanding of how to beat the prop markets. Onto Week 3…
