To put a cap on overreaction week, I'm taking Tennessee +10

Me too and majority will be for the Bills. Under sounds like a good bet as well.

I think I said it in here or perhaps another thread....but I just wouldn't get in front of the Bills this year.  

[listen2me 23 1,541]

Bills now have 20 straight wins of double digits.

I like Najee o 2.5 and Friermuth o 3.5 as well, but both of those are -180. -140 is the absolute max I will go on these props.

It’s crazy they make the vig so high instead of adding a catch.  Especially with Friermuth.

I played Randall Cobb over last week and hit.  I expect Rodgers will keep looking to the Vet in crucial situations.  What say you?

My book doesn't have props listed for that game yet. Over 2.5 receptions, I will probably be on board. 3.5 or higher and I will probably pass.

Over 2.5 +120 was the line last week.

It comes down to targets - he only had 3 in week 1 without Lazard in the lineup. The thing with GB this year I worry about, is them spreading it around too much. I don't think I have played a prop yet involving the Packers. 

[bostonlager 2,463]

Trubisky o 20.5 has hit the first two week and I am tempted to take it again, but haven't yet. Even though he is garbage, they dink and dunk for a ton of completions. The worry this week is Cleveland's reliance on the run game that could limit the number of possessions. I will likely lay off that this week in hopes he has 15-19 completions and lower his number to 19.5 for week 4.

Hard to say.  Yea he will lean on Cobb on like 3rd and 5s.  But so many guys in the WR room who all play and thr backs catch a good amount of balls.  

The thing about Cobb is I see several games of 1 or 2 catches.  And I see very few more than 3.  

Not sure on this TB game.  In theory it should be a low scoring grind.  So not sure how many times Rodgers throws it.  But at thr same time they have a nice pass rush so I can see Rodgers getting the ball out fast.  And he doesn't like to throw quick to the rookies.  

Lazard, sammy, watson, doubs may all out snap cobb most games.

2.5 per game for 17 games is 42 catches.  There is little chance he catches it 42 times unless injuries give him more opportunities. 

[listen2me 23 1,541]

Also in theory as the rookie get more experience they will gradually get more snaps.   Perhaps play cobb now and back off him as the rookies get more involved.

This is good analysis. At this point in the season I don’t trust betting over or under on any Packer player props until they show us some consistency.

In regards to this. Not only are books not offering receptions for college props this year, the NFL receptions and completions are always a half number. In years past it was not uncommon to see Najee o/u 3 with regular juice. I don't mind it on the completions, but the receptions sucks. 

[listen2me 23 1,541]

For what it is worth just passing it along since Cobb was discussed.   He didn't practice yesterday due to illness.  Not sure how sick.   Imagine he plays.

Sammy Lazard and Watson all showed up on the list as well with a limited tag.

I'm glad I didn't pay much attention to the NCAA slate tonight.  Coastal -2???  I may have dropped some inappropriate funds on this game.

You know props, I do not.  I guess I would have to look harder at the numbers but I like Allen to come out throwing and never stop.  If they get uo they don't want to let mia backdoor them.  If they get down they are slinging.  

Bills have a very banged up secondary.  It seems like in their system they can plug anyone in and have solid results.  But 3 starters are out with Poyer questionable.   Unless Tua is a big fraud it should be a high paced race for points.  

[listen2me 23 1,541]

I don't play a ton of college football especially this early in the season.    But they can't seem to set Iowa totals low enough.

I’m struggling this year to find my footing. All books across the board have changed how they set the lines and juice compared to years past. I’m having to play some expensive juice that I normally wouldn’t and force some plays onto my card. Hopefully it pans out.

Yea the access and popularity sportsbooks have seen over the last few years certainly changed the market in many ways across all sports.

I also don't mind Rutgers under 12.5 pts +100. Even as sort of a hedge for a 28-7 type blowout where Iowa finds a couple defensive/spts TDs.
