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 fantasy score totals for the Week 4 of the NFL season.

Fantasy Score NFL 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 a 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.
Sam Darnold over 19.0 fantasy score - Darnold and the Panthers are going to be without Christian McCaffrey in this one, which means his passing volume should certainly increase. Aside from this, the Cowboys have allowed the 12th-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season by allowing over 20 points per game. They have given up the second-most passing yards to quarterbacks and have also given up the fifth-most touchdown passes. Darnold should have a solid game throwing to D.J. Moore and Robby Anderson in this one.
Jonathan Taylor over 15.0 fantasy score - The Dolphins are somehow favored in this game by two points even though they will be without Tua for the foreseeable future. They are, however, only favored by two points as of this writing, so this is likely a "home team giving three" type of spread. The Dolphins have allowed the second-most fantasy points per game to running backs by allowing over 31 points per game. They have given up the third-most rushing yards to running backs and are tied for allowing the second-most touchdowns to backs. Taylor should have a solid workload in this one and he has averaged 14 carries per game and nearly three receptions per game thus far in 2021.
Calvin Ridley over 19.0 fantasy score - One of the biggest surprises this season has been the struggles of the Washington Football Team's secondary. Thus far, they have allowed wide receivers to average a league-high 247 receiving yards per game. They have also allowed the most receptions with 62 and have given up four receiving touchdowns to the position. Ridley has not broken out as of yet in 2021, but he has been targeted 29 times across the Falcons' three games and has come down with 20 of them to go along with 175 receiving yards and a touchdown. Look for him to stay heavily involved again in this game and have a solid day in the dome against this Washington secondary.
Noah Fant over 11.0 fantasy score - Fant gets a solid matchup at home against the Baltimore Ravens this week. The Ravens have faced some tough tight ends this season in Darren Waller, Travis Kelce, and T.J. Hockenson, so they will get no relief against Fant this week. On the season, they have allowed over 20 fantasy points per game to tight ends, which ranks last in the league. They have also given up the most receptions (22) and the most receiving yards (229). Fant has seen a solid target share as he has earned 17 targets in 2021 and has hauled in 12 balls for 110 yards and a touchdown. Look for PrizePicks PPR format to help out in this one as he gets over the threshold.
