Record: 2-2
Bryce Huff Over 0.25 Sacks +145
Let’s get a round of applause for starting the season off 1-0 on my sack props. Woah, woah, settle down now. We’re looking to go 2-0 before Sunday night on sack props by taking Bryce Huff over 0.25 sacks +145. Huff was a machine last season tallying 10 sacks for the Jets and will matchup tonight against Packers tackles Rasheed Walker and Zach Tom. In 2023, Walker allowed 6 sacks and posted a PFF grade of 66.4% and Zach Tom allowed 2 sacks and committed 3 penalties. I like the matchups and I love Huff’s pass rushing acumen.
Josh Jacobs Any Time Touchdown +100
There’s a new lead back in Green Bay and his name is Josh Jacobs. We’re betting Josh Jacobs any time touchdown +100 to combat our miss on Lamar Jackson any time touchdown from last evening. Jacobs only scored 6 touchdowns last season, but in the Packers offense, he isn’t splitting carries with anyone. He’s the lone back. The Eagles do have a solid rush defense, but something feels right about Jacobs finding pay dirt in a foreign land. I realize that gut bets don’t usually work in my favor, but it’s a new year. Maybe my gut will lead me in the right direction in 2024.
Luke Musgrave Over 2.5 Catches -125
Green Bay has a nice two tight end tandem with Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft going into the year, and we’re going to bet on one of those two pass catchers. Tonight, take Luke Musgrave over 2.5 catches -125. In 2023, Musgrave averaged 3.1 catches per game and 4.2 targets per game. Couple that with Philadelphia allowing fifteen tight ends from last season tallying over 2.5 catches against them and you have a formula that feels like it could win.
Javon Bullard Under 5.5 Tackles -140
If you know me, I’m not a fan of the under. Never been too fond of it, but Javon Bullard under 5.5 tackles -140 is speaking to me. I realize that college football and the NFL are completely different animals, but Bullard in twenty nine career games at Georgia had nine games over 5.5 tackles. Again, not a great indicator, but one that brought me to the conclusion to bet on Bullard’s tackle under.
