Super Bowl 56 – Betting Picks Against Spread & Prop Bets

Super Bowl 56 is this Sunday and it’s a prop bets smorgasbord.

I LOVE prop bets. I actually get more joy out of betting Super Bowl prop bets than betting against the spread. Yes, most are a crap shoot, but with the right research, you can end up winning bets with very favorable odds.

I’m not saying you can research who will win the coin toss, but there are many other player and team prop bets out there that have nice odds.

Some prop bets aren’t worth the money (the juice isn’t worth the slight risk), but sometimes you just have to lay a few bucks down, cross your fingers and wish for the best.

I picked out some of the most popular prop bets for Super Bowl 55 (or Super Bowl LV for Roman numeral fans)…and we also pick the game against the spread.

2021 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 17

We don’t have a Thursday game this week, so you will have a few extra days to tinker with your lineups.

I’ve been watching for new players placed on the COVID List, which haven’t been as fast and furious as this time last week. I still expect plenty of new names on the list by the kick-off this weekend. It really does throw a new wrench in fantasy football and sports betting.

Since the CDC reduced the amount of time asymptomatic people have to quarantine from ten to five, some of the names could be removed from the COVID list faster than in previous weeks.

Can Bengals QB Joe Burrow replicated his 525-yard performance he had against the Ravens?

Last week was another weird overall week in the NFL. The Bills nearly lost to the Jaguars and the Cowboys were dominated by the Broncos.

The Chicago Bears, Cincinnati Bengals, New York Giants and the Houston Texans are all out on bye this week.

There aren’t a ton of top fantasy players out on bye this week. There are a few studs on Cincinnati and the other teams have some startable wide receivers.

We saw some head-scratching performances last week. Who would have thought Jets backup QB Mike White would put up Madden-like numbers against the Bengals?

The Detroit Lions, Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Washington Football Team are all out on bye this week.

There were a few major injuries last week that could have affected your fantasy team. You might be looking to replace Titans RB Derrick Henry or Raiders WR Henry Ruggs going forward.

Will Titans RB Adrian Peterson be worth a waive wire pickup?

2021 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 5

This is the last full slate of games before the start of bye weeks, are you prepared?

Rams QB Matthew Stafford has a big marquee game on Thursday Night Football in Seattle. Can the Seahawks secondary do enough to stop him?

Another big marquee game is on Sunday Night Football that will have huge fantasy implications when the Buffalo Bills travel to Kansas City. How will Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes fare against the Bills stout defense?

2021 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 2

I hope you had a successful start to the fantasy football season.

I made some solid overall calls in Week 1, but I did whiff big on Saints QB Jameis Winston. I didn’t expect that output against the Packers.

There were only a couple injuries in Week 1 that will have lasting effects in fantasy. RB Raheem Mostert (knee) and Footballers QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) will be out for the foreseeable future.

Which Ravens running back should you start against the Chiefs?

2020 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 3

There were so many injuries to top players last week. Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey, Giants RB Saquon Barkley, Broncos WR Courtland Sutton & QB Drew Lock and Niners DE Nick Bosa will all miss considerable time. A few of those will miss the entire season due to injuries. The waiver wire will be busy this week.

Colts rookie RB Jonathan Taylor appeared to jump to the top of the depth chart with his breakout performance against the Vikings last week. Can he find the same success against the Jets?

Will we see another breakout game from one of the long list of backups starting this week?

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 1

I am really looking forward to fantasy football this year.

It seems like half the league has exciting young quarterbacks. Also, more running backs are becoming assets in the passing game. It makes for a more entertaining fantasy football experience.

A handful of past fantasy studs like Le’Veon Bell and Antonio Brown find themselves on new teams. Will either guy continue their top-tier fantasy production or will their fantasy stock diminish?

2018 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 13

There are finally no more bye weeks left in the NFL season…but injuries are still knocking out decent fantasy players, so depth is still as important than ever.

Also, you will start to see more and more teams that are ‘out of contention’ start to sit their star players…or star players will begin to sit for relatively minor injuries.

You could have some logjams are different positions now that a full sixteen-game schedule is underway. We will try to help you whittle down your decisions.

This is the last week of bye weeks and there are only two teams sitting out, but they are two huge teams in fantasy, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Rams.

There’s a chance there you could be in the need for a lot on your team. The Chiefs and Saints are loaded with fantasy studs and you could be hurting this week.

There are some good match-ups on Thanksgiving that could benefit your fantasy team. Are there any players on the Falcons worth picking up?
