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 Divisional Round games scheduled for Saturday, January 22nd.

Single Stat NFL Totals
Ja'Marr Chase over 72.5 receiving yards - Chase has averaged 9.5 targets per game over his previous four games and has gone over this total in three of those four games while amassing 507 receiving yards in those three games. The way to beat this Titans defense is to move the ball through the air as they allowed an average of nearly 189 receiving yards per game to the wide receiver position in 2021, which ranked second-worst in the league. The Titans also allowed a 100-yard receiver in two of their final three games to end the season, which is precisely where we might see Chase end up after this one is all said and done.
Joe Burrow over 265.5 passing yards - The Titans' defense ranked second in the league in terms of rushing yards allowed in 2021, which could make it very difficult for the Bengals to get their run game going with Joe Mixon. Look for them to come out with a heavy passing game plan against a Titans defense that allowed quarterbacks to average 264 passing yards per game in 2021, ranking seventh-worst in the league.
Brandon Aiyuk over 52.5 receiving yards - Aiyuk has been on a roll lately as he has eclipsed this total in three straight games while earning at least six targets in each of those games. He will be in a similar situation this week as compared to last week where Deebo Samuel will likely be covered by the Packers' top cornerback in Jaire Alexander, which should leave Ayiyuk open for some solid production. The Niners will also enter this game as nearly touchdown underdogs, which should also increase the passing volume on their side of the ball.
Anthony Firkser over 17.5 receiving yards - Firkser is kind of an odd choice here, but the Bengals have struggled against the tight end position in 2021 and he could be relied upon in this game. They have allowed an average of nearly 64 receiving yards per game to tight ends, which ranks fifth-worst in the league. Firkser has caught seven balls over the previous two weeks and went over this total in four of his previous five games. With the lack of production in the passing game behind A.J. Brown this season, now could be the perfect time to involve Firsker even more.
Other Recommendations - Joe Mixon under 58.5 rushing yards, Deebo Samuel over .5 touchdowns, Aaron Rodgers over 255.5 passing yards
Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
