PrizePicks Over/Under DFS Props Contests
PrizePicks is a great DFS picks site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a two-player, three-player, four-player, five-player, or six-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.
You can mix and match players from different games in your entry or select all of your plays from the same game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Let's see what the board offers today!

Before diving into some solid prop totals this week, we must first cover the PrizePicks scoring format. The format is PPR, which stands for "point per reception," meaning every reception is worth one point. Rushing and receiving touchdowns are worth six points and passing touchdowns are worth four points.
Each rushing or receiving yard is worth .1, meaning every 10 yards of either is worth one point. Quarterback passing yards are worth .04, which means every 25 passing yards are worth one point. If you ever have questions, you can always click the "scoring chart" option above the player selections for each contest. Now, let's get to some solid props for this week.
Kareem Hunt MORE than 44.5 rushing yards
Kareem Hunt appears to have taken over the role of lead running back for the Kansas City Chiefs as he toted the rock 14 times off of the couch last week, totaling 69 rushing yards. He led the Chiefs' backfield in both carries and snaps.
On Monday night, he will be up against a Saints defense that has struggled against the running back position. Thus far in 2024, the Saints have allowed an astonishing 5.23 yards per carry to running backs.
The Chiefs will enter this game as 5.5-point favorites and will likely need to rely on the run throughout the game given the lack of depth in their receiving corps with Rashee Rice's injury and lack of production from other targets. This should be a prime spot for Hunt to continue his resurgence.
