With the NHL season’s first week in the books and a 38-game sample size to scrutinize, we’re debuting another new feature today at Props.com: A twice-weekly series (Tuesdays and Thursdays) in which we offer up our five favorite league-, team-, and player-specific NHL prop bets of the day (with a side of analysis). Similar to […]
The quarterbacks: Lamar Jackson, Kyler Murray, and Russell Wilson. The running backs: Saquon Barkley, Nick Chubb, Josh Jacobs, and Christian McCaffery. The wide receivers: Tyreke Hill, DeAndre Hopkins, DK Metcalf, and Adam Thielen. Nope, that’s not a list of names at the top of the Pro Bowl’s early-voting leaderboard. It’s a list of names you […]
Oregon winning at Ohio State (then subsequently — and inexplicably — losing at Stanford). Texas A&M knocking out top-ranked Alabama (one week after losing at home to Mississippi State). Half of the Top 10 being comprised of teams from the Big Ten. Cincinnati ranked No. 3, directly ahead of three college football bluebloods (Oklahoma, Alabama, […]
The NHL drops the puck on the 2021-22 season tonight with a pair of games, one featuring the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions (Tampa Bay Lightning) and one involving the new kid on the block (Seattle Kraken) versus the new-ish kid on the block (Vegas Golden Knights). As is the case with any sport, the […]
The Dallas Cowboys, who were the NFL’s least profitable team to bet on in 2020, remain the most profitable team in 2021. The Arizona Cardinals, who haven’t had a winning record or made the playoffs since 2015, remain the last undefeated team. Patrick Mahomes has only one more victory than a team quarterbacked by someone […]
Well, we did it. We survived the BradyBelichick Bowl without taking an icepick to either our eyeballs or eardrums. Just think, only four more years until they run it back. We’re sure NBC’s overhype machine is already working overtime. We’re also sure Brady will be there, in uniform, under center. Unless, of course, he decides […]
There are many ways to try to grind out a profit betting college football games from week to week. You can do hours of old-school research. You can run computer models until your electricity short-circuits. You can subscribe to countless services and seek the opinions of industry experts in hopes of distilling a consensus. Or […]
Four weeks into the 2021 season, we’re down to one unbeaten team … and that team is the Arizona Cardinals. We’re also down to one unbeaten team at the betting window: the Dallas Cowboys. That’s right: A franchise that has qualified for the playoffs a whopping seven times since 1948 and played in one Super […]
How many split screens of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick will NBC air? What percentage of New England Patriots fans will give Brady a standing ovation every time he steps on the field? How many times will Belichick order a linebacker to take out Brady’s knees? Will the postgame Brady/Belichick encounter at midfield be genuine? […]
If you haven’t figured it out already, you will soon enough: We here at Props.com are big on offering information, not advice. Unless that advice is your garden variety public-service announcement. You know, along the lines of “Never press ‘send’ on an email at 2 a.m.” Or “Never get down on one knee on the […]
When you think “states with a ton of wealth,” odds are Arkansas isn’t the first that comes to mind. Hell, it might not even make the top 50. And yet, Arkansas is where Walmart was born (we’re gonna guess the heirs to founder Sam Walton aren’t regular customers). It’s where Dallas Cowboys’ billionaire owner Jerry […]
Not long ago, NFL fans who wanted to dive headfirst into the prop-betting pool had to wait until at least January, when bookmakers would post a handful of prop offerings at the start of the playoffs.
