Our prop bets have been on fire the last few weeks! After another perfect weekend last Sunday, we move to 6-2 on the season and have another sure fire bet for today's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. With the Pittsburgh Steelers attempting to remain undefeated against the Jaguars, there's one player we expect to have a big day and crush his reception total for this week.
- Diontae Johnson over 5.5 receptions (+101): Johnson has been a favorite of ours to bet on this season for one simple reason - he is undervalued on the betting market. Bookmakers who don't follow the team closely do not realize the impact that Johnson has on the game when he's fully healthy. Johnson has had double digit targets every week except for one in which he finished. He is Ben Roethlisberger's favorite check down target and often makes great moves when in space to pick up key yards in crucial situations. Johnson has had 6 receptions the past two weeks and look for him to have 6+ catches again today against a poor Jaguars secondary.
BONUS BET: This week we are going to throw in a long shot bet that has a high pay out, but we aren't overly confident about. Steelers head coach, Mike Tomlin preached all week about getting the running game and running back James Conner going. Look for Conner to have a big game and for him to score multiple times. His odds to score two or more touchdowns is +360 meaning a $100 bet would net you $360 dollars.
