Vacation, golfing, sunshine and beers kept me away for a few weeks, but I’m happy to be back to offer up my Week 9 bets. $$$$$$$
Prop of the Day – J. Allen Over 289.5 Passing Yards
The Hawks have allowed 366.4 passing yards per game this season and the only QB not to reach the 300 mark was Primetime Kirk Cousins. Ryan Fitzpatrick, Cam Newton and the combo of Mullens/Jimmy G all surpassed 300 yards passing against this secondary. The Bills rank 2nd to last in running and will be trying to keep up with Russell Wilson all afternoon. Allen has already thrown over 300 yards 4 times this season, and with big play John Brown back, look for him to make it his 5th.
Tease of the Day – HOU -0.5/LAC +7
There is Luton to like about this Jaguars offense. Watson threw for 350+ and 3 TDs a few weeks ago against this same team. Should eat them up. The Chargers get Vegas today, and I wouldn’t gamble anything on them holding on to a lead, but they’re good enough to keep it within a TD.
Lock of the day – DET/MIN Over 51
4 of the last 5 Vikings games have gone over thanks to a horrible defense that has allowed over 27 points per game. The offense is playing better lately, scoring 26 or more points in 4 of their last 5. Now they get a Lions defense that is allowing over 29 points per game which ranks 26th in the league. The Lions offense is still really good, even without Golladay. They scored 21 points against the Colts stout defense and have scored an average of 26.6 points per game over their last 5 games.
