To me, this is one of the most exciting football weekends of the year. We have six games to take in: two on Saturday, three on Sunday, and one on Monday night. Here at Yardbarker, we want to put the research back into the hands of the reader.
To do that, we'll be offering up a variety of resources, the first of which is a player prop betting guide for all the NFL action during Wild Card Weekend.
Consider this a cheat sheet of quick-hitting notes on potential defensive vulnerabilities for each team. At the bottom of each matchup, I'll offer up the spot that looks best to me, but I encourage you to take in everything and roll with what speaks to you!
Christian McCaffrey
George Kittle
DK Metcalf
Tyler Lockett
Griffin's recommendation: George Kittle's receiving yards prop
Los Angeles at Jacksonville
Travis Etienne
Keenan Allen
Joshua Palmer
Gerald Everett
Griffin's recommendation: Keenan Allen's receiving yards, especially if Mike Williams is out
Dawson Knox
*Keep in mind that it's likely Skylar Thompson at quarterback this weekend. Tua Tagovailoa is out. That significantly caps the impact that Hill and Waddle can have.
Tyreek Hill
Jaylen Waddle
Griffin's recommendation: Dawson Knox's yards and touchdown
Dalvin Cook
TJ Hockenson
Darius Slayton
Saquon Barkley
Griffin's recommendation: TJ Hockenson's receiving yards
Ja'Marr Chase
Tee Higgins
Tyler Boyd
*It's currently unknown if Lamar Jackson will be available this weekend, though it's trending towards him not playing.
Mark Andrews
Griffin's recommendation: Ja'Marr Chase's receiving yards
Leonard Fournette
Rachaad White
Mike Evans
Chris Godwin
N/A. Only defense to not rank favorably for any of the above metrics that may help us project player prop success.
Griffin's recommendation: Mike Evans TD
