Revenge games bring with them a level of anticipation and excitement and this week, we have two of them. Not only do we want to see how a former player will perform against his former team, we want to profit from it. Here are the best week 7 prop bets found on Draft Kings Sportsbook.
Check out last week’s Prop Locks here
Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins Over 1.5 rushing and receiving touchdowns (+125)
Once upon a time, Hopkins starred for the Houston Texans. Then they basically gave him away. Although much time has passed, Hopkins surely wants to show his former team what a colossal mistake they made. And thankfully for Hopkins, his current team, the Arizona Cardinals, are 6-0 and humming along rather nicely. The Texans have allowed 20 touchdowns in six games and the Cardinals have scored 22 of them. Hopkins is averaging a touchdown per game as it is, let alone taking into account the f*ck you factor. Heck I’m even willing to bet that JJ Watt scores as well in this game. Texans’ fans will need to brace themselves.
DeAndre Hopkins anytime touchdown scorer (-125)
See above. Double the amount on this play right here.
D’Andre Swift Over 45.5 receiving yards (-115)
The fact I’m following a DeAndre play with a D’Andre play is not lost on me. It’s an amusing coincidence for sure. The real reason this line is appealing is, again, the revenge factor. Lions’ QB Jared Goff will be facing off against his former team the LA Rams. Goff has yet to win with his new team (0-6) and his own head coach called him out this week saying he needed to step up his game. Unfortunately, travelling back to SoFi isn’t the answer. But amongst all this Lion doom and gloom, a light emerges. Look for Goff to checkdown to Swift in the flats to help alleviate the onslaught of the Rams’ pass rush. Swift should amass a bunch of garbage yards in this one.
Davante Adams and Aaron Jones Over 199,5 combined yards (+105)
Did anyone really expect the Washing Football Team to be ranked dead last in team defence after six games? Yet here they are giving up a shocking 423 yards per game. Packers’ QB Aaron Rodgers knows how to surgically pick apart a defence and at Lambo this weekend, Adams and Jones will be the tools Rodgers uses to get the job done.
Deebo Samuel Over 4.5 yards rushing (-120)
This one seems like an odd play but hear me out. Kyle Shanahan, as a play caller, is as creative as they come. And in the last four games, Shanahan has given Deebo six rush attempts. I like that trend to continue and for Deebo to surpass this number.
Younghoe Koo Over 6.5 points (-125)
I feel obligated to continue with a kicker prop bet this week since I am perfect thus far in 2021 on these bets. So I just went ahead and put my fantasy kicker on a ticket against my favourite team that hasn’t won a game since week 1. That’s all I have for this one.
