NFL Wild Card Weekend Saturday Slate - Single Stat DFS Prop Picks for PrizePicks

Hello everybody and welcome! The 2021 NFL season has finally reached the playoffs and that means our new friends over at PrizePicks still have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.

Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best and easiest to win NFL DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.

PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat. For NFL, Single Stat consists of quarterback passing yards, running back rushing yards, and wide receiver receiving yards in which you determine if the player in question will go over or under their projected total. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Today, we will look at some single-stat scores for the NFL's Wild Card games scheduled for Saturday, January 15th.

Single Stat NFL Totals

Darren Waller over 48.5 receiving yards - Waller has one of my favorite matchups on the board Saturday. He just returned from injury last week against the Chargers and should have shaken off all the rust and will be relied upon heavily in this game against the Bengals. On the season, the Bengals have allowed the fifth-most receiving yards to tight ends. Waller faced this Bengals team back in Week 11 and managed to haul in seven balls for 116 receiving yards.

Joe Mixon over 71.5 rushing yards - The Bengals are going to want to establish the run early and often in this game and Joe Mixon is the guy to handle that load. He has averaged over 20 carries per game across his previous seven games and has at least 17 carries in six of those seven games. This Raiders defense has struggled against the run in 2021 as they have allowed an average of 95 rushing yards per game to the position. In their Week 11 matchup, Mixon carried the ball 30 times for 123 rushing yards

Stefon Diggs under 63.5 receiving yards - It is always tough to take an under on Diggs, especially considering he just went over this total three weeks ago against the Patriots, but the weather looks rough in Orchard Park on Saturday and that could definitely play a role in this game. This is a Patriots defense that has allowed the second-fewest yards to wide receivers in 2021 by allowing just 128 yards per game. The Patriots know that Diggs is a key part of the Bills' offense and will scheme in any way possible to be able to slow him down as well.

Devin Singletary over 57.5 rushing yards - Given the fact that the weather should be rough, it makes sense for the Bills to get Singletary going early. It feels as though they have been planning on using Singletary at a solid rate in the playoffs because he has averaged 19 carries per game over the previous four games. He will be facing a Patriots defense that is much weaker against the run as compared to the pass as they have allowed running backs to average over 102 rushing yards per game, which ranks ninth-worst in the league.

Other Recommendations - Josh Jacobs over 17.5 receiving yards, Joe Mixon over .5 rushing touchdowns, Joe Burrow over 260.5 passing yards

Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
