Hello everybody and Merry Christmas! The 2021 NFL season is alive and well with two games on Christmas night and that means our 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 PrizePicks for the two-game slate on Saturday, December 25th.

Single-Stat NFL Totals
Aaron Rodgers over 249.5 passing yards This number is set too low on Rodgers for a prime time game at home or far any game, really. He has gone over this total in five straight games and is averaging over 318 passing yards per game over that span. This is a Browns' defense that has been strong against the run this season, but has allowed an average of over 232 passing yards per game.
Jonathan Taylor over 100.5 rushing yards - This number could be north of 100 yards and I would still consider playing the over. Taylor is an absolute beast as he has gone over this total in four of his previous five games while averaging nearly 140 rushing yards on 26 carries per game over that span. He has a solid matchup in this one against the Cardinals who are allowing 102 rushing yards per game to running backs over the previous four weeks, which ranks 11th-worst in the league over that span. This game is also expected to be close as the spread currently sits at just one-point, which means Taylor should be able to stay active in the run game throughout.
Christian Kirk over 54.5 receiving yards - Kirk has put together solid weeks in the past two games with DeAndre Hopkins missing time. He has averaged nine targets and 90 receiving yards in those two games and will be heavily relied upon in this one to beat the Colts. The Colts have a strong defense, but have shown some weakness against wide receivers as they have allowed a total of 11 wide receivers to get over this total in 2021.
James Conner under 45.5 rushing yards - Conner has only hit this mark in two of his previous five games and both came without Chase Edmonds in the lineup. Edmonds returned last week and carried the ball six times to Conner's eight and will likely continue to cut into COnner's workload moving forward. Aside from this, the Colts run defense has been superb as they have allowed an average of just 72 rushing yards per game over the previous four weeks, which ranks ninth-best in the league over that span.
Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
