SINGLE PROP 2023 REGULAR SEASON RECORD:


WEEK 7: 8-13
OVERALL: 96-120

 

49ERS @ VIKINGS (8:20p)


VIKINGS RB ALEXANDER MATTISON OVER 18.5 RECEIVING YARDS (-115)
The 49ers are difficult to run against but they can be had through the screen game because of their aggressive pass rush led by Nick Bosa. A running back has been over this receiving prop in every game this season except in Week 1. Mattison has been over this number in 3 of his last 4 games as the Vikings have had to use him more out of the backfield especially since Justin Jefferson was put on IR. Kirk will be under a lot of pressure and he’ll have to dump it off a lot to avoid getting crushed.

VIKINGS K GREG JOSEPH OVER 1.5 FIELD GOALS (+130)
Greg Joseph has been over this prop number in back to back games. What’s the commonality in those games? No Justin Jefferson to help the Vikings finish off drives. They also get a very difficult 49ers defense which will likely stall the Vikings a few times inside the 30. This game is also being played inside the comforts of a dome which will help him immensely.

49ERS WR BRANDON AIYUK OVER 73.5 RECEIVING YARDS (-115)
No Deebo Samuel and Christian McCaffrey will not be 100%, Purdy will need Aiyuk to be his go to guy tonight. This is a little higher than I would like but he’s been over in 2 of his last 3. The Vikings have been good against the tight end but they are prone to giving up big games to the wide receiver position. Devonta Smith put up 131 against them and the Chargers combination of Keenan Allen and Mike Williams put up 336 yards,
