The NFL is back!
It’s time to spend our Sunday in front of the TV and fill our day with over 10 hours of games. You might already have some wagers on spreads and totals, but we also have prop bets to make it more interesting.
Here we will look at some interception props and check out some quarterbacks that will look to the opposing defense as a receiving option and ones that come away clean.

Marcus Mariota vs. New Orleans Saints
Marcus Mariota has a challenging task in facing one of the league’s premiere defenses in the New Orleans Saints, especially a very good secondary who finished with four-most interceptions last year. In Mariota's previous three seasons with Tennessee, he finished with 33 TDs to 25 INTs and has one season where he threw more picks than touchdowns.

Pick: Over 0.5 (-115)
Justin Herbert vs. Las Vegas Radiers
Justin Herbert gets his revenge right away against a Raiders team that beat him in a win-or-go-home game in Week 18. Herbert had an interception in that game, but he also threw the ball 64 times and had to control several key drives late. In Week 1, expect a more balanced offense, and he's facing a Las Vegas secondary that had the fewest interceptions last season.
Pick: Under 0.5 (-145)
Tua Tagovailoa vs. New England Patriots
There is a ton of hype going into the Dolphins' season with a new coach and new targets for Tua Tagovailoa. Trading for Tyreek Hill clearly indicates that new head coach Mike McDaniel wants to open up the passing game and get Tua to throw the ball. Week 1 is a tough assignment against a New England defense that is always top tier, and last season finished second with 23 picks.
Pick: Over 0.5 (-105)
Kirk Cousins vs. Green Bay Packers
This is another good value to take. The Packers are an excellent defense, especially in the secondary with Darnell Savage, Rasul Douglas and Jaire Alexander, who was injured for most of last year, including both games against the Vikings. I would consider siding with the under if Cousins had a few games under his belt, but he didn't take a preseason snap, so there will be some rust, and he'll make a mistake.
Pick: Over 0.5 (-105)
Justin Fields vs. San Fransisco 49ers
Many hope Justin Fields will make a leap in year two with this new coaching staff. This is a good matchup for him, and I like him putting up some good stats. The 49ers’ signing of former Chiefs CB Charvarius Ward was needed for the secondary, but they're still not that good of a unit. I'll take Fields having a clean game.
Pick: Under 0.5 (+105)
