GOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING ladies and gents! After seven long months, football is finally back! And so are my highly coveted player props.
I finished last season with a record of 22-23 (+21.98 units). After going 14-12 with my picks during the regular season, I struggled to really find my footing in the playoffs as I finished with an 8-11 (+5.72 units) record. Fortunately, I finished the season strong as I went 3-2 (4.95 units) in the Super Bowl as Tom Brady and the Bucs man-handled Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs in a 31-9 beat down. People forget that Mahomes finished 26-of-49 passing with zero touchdowns and two interceptions. But, I digress!
The 2020 NFL season is in our rearview mirror and it is time to move on to the 2021 NFL season opener.
COWBOYS VS BUCCANEERS
DOM’S PROP BET TO HAMMER
Tonight, the defending champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers are hosting the Dallas Cowboys as they look to begin another title run and become the first team since the 2004 Patriots to repeat.
In honor of the greatest quarterback of all time, I too am going to try and run it back as I will be taking Tom Brady over 2.5 touchdown passes (+135) for the fourth time in the history of my blogs. As it is the first game of the season, I don’t have too much to base this pick on other than history. Brady has surpassed this total in four of the six games he has played in to open the season as the defending Super Bowl champion. I just love betting on Tom Brady because he rarely steers me wrong.
CJAY’S LONG-SHOT PROPS
Rob Gronkowski first touchdown (+1800); Antonio Brown 2+ touchdowns (+1200); CeeDee Lamb first Cowboys touchdown (+450)
