Low Vig Favorites Receptions Unders 4.5 to 6.5 Rec
The “Low Vig Favorites Receptions Unders 4.5 to 6.5 Rec” system has added 13.29 units of profit over its last 65 bets at an average price of -116. That’s a 64.62% win rate and a 20.45% return on investment (ROI) during that stretch.
To qualify for the system, a player must have a line of 4.5-6.5 receptions. The spread must be within 5.5 points, and the cost must be -130 to -101. In addition, the player must have hit the over for receptions in no more than two of the last five games.
George Pickens of the Dallas Cowboys is set to face the Washington Commanders. He had just three receptions against the Giants in Week 1 and has earned no more than four receptions in four of his last five games dating back to last season.
Yet, you can bet on him to go under 4.5 Receptions at -107. We’ll take it
Pick: George Pickens Under 4.5 Receptions (-107)
Rushing Yardage Unders (≤40% Over Hit Rate L5)
This system has delivered a 14.33% ROI, generating 17.62 units of profit over its last 123 bets. It requires players to have hit the over in no more than two of the last five games. It also requires the player to have hit the over in no more than four of the last 10 games, six of the last 15 and eight of the last 20.
Brian Robinson Jr. of the Atlanta Falcons earned 31 rushing yards last week against Pittsburgh. But he’s hit this line in just three of his last 10 games. Over his last five games, he’s averaged just 13.2 rushing yards per game. Consider him to go under 25.5 rushing yards in Week 2.
Pick: Brian Robinson Jr. Under 25.5 Rushing Yards (-114)
September QB Passing Yards Unders (Thu/Sun Games)
This system notes that quarterbacks typically go under their passing yards average in Thursday Night Football and Sunday Night Football matchups. Over its last 20 bets, this system has won 70% of the time, earning a 32.55% ROI during that stretch.
Daniel Jones began his Colts career with a bang, but he’s cooled off recently. He’s thrown for no more than 201 passing yards in four consecutive games, including 166 passing yards in Week 1 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Jones will likely struggle against a very good Chiefs defense on Sunday Night Football. Let’s back Jones to go under 216.5 passing yards in this one.
