1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: Hey everyone, I am Pat Fitzmorris, managing editor of Betting 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,800 Speaker 1: Pros and Fantasy Pros, here to run through my favorite 3 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,560 Speaker 1: player props for Week seventeen. 4 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 2: Well, after going twenty two and. 5 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: Seven on our player props over a four week stretch 6 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: from Week twelve to Week fifteen, we came to a 7 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 1: screeching halt in Week sixteen with a four and six record. 8 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 2: It could have been even worse. 9 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: We were two and six on Saturday before hitting a 10 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: couple of winners in the Packers Dolphins game on Christmas Day. 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,639 Speaker 1: So I don't know about you. I'm eager to get 12 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: the bad taste out of my mouth. So let's get 13 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: to the week seventeen selections. And just a reminder that 14 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: all lines are courtesy of DraftKings as of Thursday afternoon. 15 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: All right, we will start with Gino Smith under one 16 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: point five touchdown passes. The under here seems like a bargain, 17 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 1: especially when you consider that it's minus one ten on 18 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: DraftKings instead of the standard minus one fifteen. This is 19 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: more about the Jets defense than about Gino himself. The 20 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: Jets have allowed just six touchdown passes in their last 21 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: twelve games, have not given up multiple touchdown passes to 22 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: any team during that twelve game stretch. The last quarterback 23 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: to throw multiple touchdown passes in a game against the 24 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 1: Jets Joe Burrow way back in Week three. Among the 25 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: quarterbacks they have held under two touchdown passes during this 26 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: twelve game stretch, Josh Allen twice, Kirk Cousins, Aaron Rodgers, 27 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, Jared Goff. So yeah, Gino has thrown multiple 28 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: touchdown passes in eleven to fifteen games this season, granted, 29 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: but he has thrown just one touchdown pass in each 30 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: of his last two games. I think the under is 31 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: a pretty good percentage play here. Dalvin Cook over seventy 32 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: one point five rushing yards against the Green Bay Packers. 33 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: Cook has topped this number in ten of his fifteen 34 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: outings this year, and he's averaging seventy three point eight 35 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: rushing yards per game. He gets a soft matchup against 36 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: the Packers, who's run defense ranks thirty second, dead last 37 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: in the league in DVA, and the Packers have faced 38 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: the sixth most running back carries this season and they're 39 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: giving up five point yards per carry on the year. 40 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: So yeah, this is a really good matchup. 41 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: And when Cook went against the Packers way back in 42 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: Week one, he carried twenty times for ninety yards, so 43 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: he has already hit. He's gone over this total in 44 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: his previous meeting against the Packers. He's averaged seventeen point 45 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: six carries a game over the last six games, and 46 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: he's had excuse me, over the last five games, and 47 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: he's had at least fourteen carries in every game during 48 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: that stretch, so he has in fact been a workhorse. 49 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: I think he gets over seventy one point five rushing 50 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: yards against Green Bay on Sunday, all right, Rashad whitees 51 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: over fifteen point five receiving yards. White has topped this 52 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: number in four of his last five games. He has 53 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: averaged five point six targets and five catches a game 54 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: during that stretch, along with twenty five point eight receiving yards. 55 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: So we have continued to see Tom Brady be a 56 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: checkdown machine in. 57 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 2: His old age. He does not like to take hits. 58 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 1: He does not like to stand around in the pocket 59 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: waiting for the pass rush to get him. He will 60 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: dump off to his running backs with abandon and even 61 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: though there are two running backs catching those passes, Rashad 62 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: White and Leonard Fournettes. There's plenty to go around. He's 63 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: targeted his running backs one hundred and thirty three times 64 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: this season, more than any other quarterback except Justin Herbert 65 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: of the Chargers. White snap counts have decreased slightly in 66 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks as the Buccaneers have leaned 67 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: a little more heavily on the veteran Leonard Fournettes, but 68 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: White has still played no fewer than twenty nine snaps 69 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: in any Buccaneers game since the start of November. And 70 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: I like the talented rookies chances to clear this real 71 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: satively modest yardage total fifteen point five receiving yards. 72 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: I like the over. 73 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: We'll get to the rest of this week's plays in 74 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: just a moment, but first, want to track all of 75 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: your wagers in one place.

Okay, let's get to the week rest 85 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: of this week's selections. Drake London over fifty eight point 86 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: five receiving yards. 87 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: Now. 88 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: I know there was a time earlier this year when 89 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: betting the over on any Drake London yardage total above 90 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: fifty yards would have been tantamount to setting money on fire. 91 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 2: But things have changed. 92 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: The Falcons have made a concerted effort to get their 93 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: talented rookie receiver the ball more, even though they're not 94 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: throwing the ball at a high rate and continuing to 95 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: be very run heavy with rookie quarterback Desmond Ritter. Over 96 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: his last three games, London has produced ninety five, seventy 97 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: and ninety six receiving yards. He's averaged ten point seven 98 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: targets and six point seven catches over that stretch, and 99 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: he has had an outrageous thirty eight point six percent 100 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: target share over those last three Atlanta games. The Falcons 101 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: face a very leaky Cardinals defense that ranks thirtieth in 102 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: DVOA against the pass. I like London to go over 103 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: fifty eight and a half receiving yards. Let's go on 104 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: to Justin Jefferson over ninety five point five receiving yards. 105 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: I've been hitting the Justin Jefferson overs pretty hard this season. 106 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: And it's it's paid off. 107 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: It's been a lot like Cooper Cup last year, where 108 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter how high the number gets. Just keep 109 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: hitting it and you're probably gonna profit handsomely from it 110 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: at the end of the season. So let us show 111 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,559 Speaker 1: fealty to King Jefferson here. He is averaging one hundred 112 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: and seventeen point one receiving yards per game and he 113 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: has topped this number ninety five point five in eleven 114 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: of his fifteen games this year. So the Vikings visit 115 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,799 Speaker 1: Green Bay this weekend and it is week one matchup 116 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: against the Packers. Jefferson had nine catches for one hundred 117 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: and eighty four yards and two touchdowns. Not only did 118 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: the Packers elect not to cover Jefferson with their best 119 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: cornerback in that game, jyr Alexander, but somehow the Packers 120 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,679 Speaker 1: wound up covering with Jefferson or attempting to cover him 121 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: with linebackers and safeties for a lot of that game. 122 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: So you know schematic flaw for the Packers. 123 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: They are not inclined to shadow the other team's best 124 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver with Jerry or Alexander so and we know 125 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: the target volume is going to be there for Jefferson. 126 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: He has seen double digit targets in five straight games, 127 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: and he has seen no fewer than fifteen targets in 128 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: any of his last three games, at least fifteen targets 129 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: in three straights. And last week against the Dolphins, the 130 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: Packer defense let two wide receivers go over one hundred 131 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: yards Jalen Waddle at one hundred and forty three if 132 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: he had that big long touchdown catch early in the game, 133 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: and Tyreek Hill also at one hundred and three yards. 134 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: So I like Justin Jefferson to clear ninety five point 135 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: five receiving yards and finally one last one, Terrace Marshall, 136 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers receiver under thirty five point five receiving yards. 137 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: Marshall has been making the most of meager target counts 138 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: in the last couple of weeks. He was targeted three 139 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: times against Detroit in Week sixteen and had two catches 140 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: for fifty five five yards. The previous week, Week fifteen, 141 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: against Pittsburgh, he caught all three of his targets for 142 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: fifty one yards. Marshall is drown just ten targets over 143 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: the last four games. Those are the four games since 144 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold took over a quarterback for the Panthers, so 145 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: only ten targets for Marshall in those games. Yes, he's 146 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: been outrageously efficient with those targets, but I am willing 147 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: to bet against small sample efficiency every time. And the 148 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 1: Panthers have been super run heavy with Donald at the controls, 149 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: running the ball on sixty three point two percent of 150 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: their offensive snaps over Donald's four starts. That is like 151 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: a college team, maybe even run heavier than a lot 152 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: of college teams. 153 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm. 154 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: Happy to bet against Marshall here. Also facing a good 155 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: Buccaneers defense that has allowed the tenth fewest receiving yards 156 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: to wide receivers. In an earlier Week seven meeting with 157 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: the Bucks, Marshall again just three targets, two catches for 158 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: thirty one yards. So I'm betting terras Marshall under thirty 159 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: five point five receiving yards. Let's recap all of this 160 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: week's plays, Gino Smith under one point five touchdown passes, 161 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook over seventy one point five rushing yards, Rashad 162 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: White over fifteen point five receiving yards, Drake London over 163 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: fifty eight point five receiving yards, Justin Jefferson over ninety 164 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: five point five receiving yards, and Tarras Marshall under thirty 165 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: eight excuse me, thirty five point five receiving yards. That's 166 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 1: going to do it for the week. Seventeen plays. Everyone, 167 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,599 Speaker 1: we have reached the end of twenty twenty two. I 168 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: want to wish you all a very happy new year. 169 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: May twenty twenty three be prosperous for you, and may 170 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: you finish the year and a high note with some victories. 171 00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 2: Good luck everyone, See you later. P
