Hello everybody and welcome! The 2021 NFL season is finally underway and that means our new friends over at PrizePicks 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 props for the Monday night opener between the Las Vegas Raiders and Los Angeles Chargers.

Fantasy Score NFL Totals and Single-Stat Totals

Before diving into some solid fantasy score 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 fantasy score props for this week.

Austin Ekeler over 56.5 rushing yards - While the Raiders have been better thus far in 2021 against the run, they are still allowing running backs to rush for nearly 78 yards per game. Ekeler has been solid this season and is averaging nearly 56 rushing yards per game on nearly 12 carries per game. While the Chargers are a pass-first offense, they will still look to get Ekeler the ball 12-15 times in this game and he should be able to get over this total against this defense.

Darren Waller over 68.5 receiving yards - Waller is the top dog in this Raiders passing game as he has been targeted a total of 33 times this season and has come down with 20 receptions for 224 receiving yards and one touchdown. The Chargers have given up production to the tight end position this season as they have allowed 17 receptions for 200 yards, which averages out to allowing 67 yards per game. Waller is one of the top tight ends in the league and should find some solid success in this one, especially considering the Raiders are three-point underdogs in this one and could be forced to pass a bit more late in the game.

Derek Carr over 24 pass completions - The Raiders are slight underdogs in this game as aforementioned and that could mean more passing attempts from Derek Carr who is already averaging 45 pass attempts per game. Add in the fact that the Raiders could be without (or limited) Josh Jacobs, and you have a recipe for passing in this game. Carr has already gone over this total in each of his first three games and has yet to complete less than 26 passes in a game.

Other Recommendations: Justin Herbert over 27 pass completions, Justin Herbert over 23.5 fantasy score, Darren Waller over 6 receptions, Austin Ekeler over .5 touchdowns

Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
