Top 5 Player Props For Week 1

The 2023/2024 NFL Season kicked off last night with the Lions taking down the reigning champs. We now look ahead to a full Sunday of NFL action and the 5 best player props to bet on!

1) Joe Burrow OVER 1.5 TD Passes (-158): Joe Burrow is fresh off his brand new contract making him the highest-paid player in NFL history. With that new pay raise it is time for him to show off the goods. In both matchups against the browns last season Burrow threw for 2 TDs. Expect him to hit that mark again in Week 1.

2) Calvin Ridley OVER 4.5 Receptions (-158): The Jags offense was high flying last year and Calvin Ridley is the newest toy for Trevor Lawerence to play with. The last time Ridley played he was averaging 6 receptions a game. The colts are not a big time defense by any means. Expect Ridley to get involved early and oftern and going over this reception total by halftime.

3) Aaron Jones OVER 56.5 Rushing Yards (-114): Aaron Rodgers is gone and it is time for Aaron Jones to finally be featured for the STAR he is. Last season Jones averaged 66 rushing yards per game behind an injuried offensive line. This season the Packers O-line is back healthy and looks to be one of the better lines in the league. With a new QB expect the Packers to establish the run against a lousy Beats defense.

4) Darren Waller OVER 49.5 Receiving Yards (-114): Staying on theme with shiny new toys, Daniel Jones has one in Darren Waller. All offseason we have heard about how strong of connection Jones and Waller have made and the expectation is that Waller gets fed the ball as the number 1 recieving option. I mean who else is Jones going to through the ball to.. Isiah Hodgins?

5) Diontae Johnson Anytime TD Scorer (+290): This one is simple for me. Johnson went the entire last season without recording a TD catch. He was playing the full season too, having 147 targets and 86 receptions, but still 0 TD catches. Positive regression is a real thing and that goose egg is going to go away in Week 1.

BONUS PICK: Jahan Dotson First TD Scorer (+800): This is strcitly a gut feeling based on how well he looked playing with Sam Howell in the preseason.

If you are feeling confident in these picks like I am a parlay will net you out a juicy +3564 odds for a nice payday. As always please gamble responsibly.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
