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 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.
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 which consists of specific props (catches, yards, touchdowns, etc.) in which you determine if the player in question will go over or under their projected total.
You can mix and match players from different types of games 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. Let's see what the board offers today!
NFL DFS Props - Over/Under Picks for TNF
Isiah Pacheco MORE than 71.5 rushing yards
This is a bit of an inflated prop for Isiah Pachecho as he has only eclipsed this total in one of the first five weeks of the season. That being said, he will be up against an atrocious Denver run defense. Over the first five games of the season, Denver has allowed a total of 821 rushing yards to the running back position, which is ranked dead last in the league.
They have also allowed an average of over six yards per carry to the position, which is absolutely insane. Pacheco has averaged 17 carries per game over the previous three weeks and should see a similar workload in this game. Currently, the Chiefs are double-digit favorites in this one, which should lead to some additional carries for him down the stretch.
Jerry Jeudy MORE than 54.5 receiving yards
As aforementioned, Jedfy and the Broncos are double-digit underdogs in this game, so some increased passing could be expected on their side of the ball. Jeudy should be a beneficiary of these additional targets as he has seen an average of six targets per game in the four games he has played.
Jeudy has also averaged 52 receiving yards per game in his four games this season. Kansas City has been relatively solid against the position, but they have still allowed an average of 141 receiving yards per game to wide receivers. Jeudy was also a go-to wide receiver last year against Kansas City as he hauled in 15 of 17 targets in two games played against them.
Jerick McKinnon MORE than 12.5 receiving yards
This prop will likely rise as we approach kickoff and for good reason. McKinnon has eclipsed this total in three of five games to begin 2023. He has hauled in nine of his 12 targets as well. Mahomes will likely be looking his way against this porous Broncos defense relatively often.
Over the first five weeks of the season, the Broncos have allowed running backs to average over 51 receiving yards per game, which ranks third-worst in the league. The Chiefs should use quite a bit of Isiah Pachecho and Jerrick McKinnon in this game, and both could put up solid numbers on the ground and through the air, but McKinnon will likely be the focal point through the air in this one, which is why I like this play.
