After nine weeks of trying to beat the SI Sportsbook with my player prop predictions, I am 23-20 while being -0.60 units on a $100 baseline of each investment.
I went 2-3 in NFL prop bets last week, with two losses coming from disappointing offensive showings by the Chiefs and Bills. A win is a win, and a loss is a loss. The goal is to be on the positive side of each investment, regardless of the back story.
If I wager on the favorite, I lay the juice to win $100 (-115 betting line = $115 to win $100).
