Week 1 is coming to an end, but not before Seahawks and Broncos players play Monday night football.
Monday Night Football as Broncos Four Points Wei Russell Wilson became one of the best storylines of the first week*) Back Seattle faced his former team.
If you want to get involved, here are some player props to consider, courtesy of SI Sportsbook.
Melvin Gordon has over 37.5 rushing yards (-110), touchdowns at any time (+160)
This is the running back of the Denver Commission, even though Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon With a 60/40 ratio, the veteran rusher should be able to clear this rushing prop against Seattle, allowing 95 yards per game to opposing running backs. Seattle also allowed 14 touchdowns last year, so I love Gordon’s bonus for finding the end zone. Gordon has eight touchdowns in 2021 and has seen 42 red zone appearances. By comparison, Williams had four points and 36 touches in 20 minutes. Things will look different in the case of center Russell Wilson, but since Broncos offensive coordinator Justin Otten said he expects the Broncos to run, the tandem should continue to play out in the backcourt at the back. All seasons are in “Pitch Count” status. I’d take this super-low sprint prop for the slightly more productive veteran, and I’d bet on the SISB bonus points as well.
Courtland Sutton Maximum reception time exceeds 23.5 (-110)
will Wouldn’t Courtland Sutton or Jerry Jeudy stand out in this game? It’s close to a coin flip, which is why I chose to use the longest reception prop. Among active quarterbacks, Russell Wilson has the highest deep pass percentage (111.1), followed by Patrick Mahomes (109.6) and Justin Herbert (106.9). Meanwhile, Courtland Sutton is second in 2021 with an average depth of target (ADOT) of 15.8 yards. Wilson’s former teammate in Seattle, Tyler Lockett, was fourth (15.4). See where am I going? We’ve heard throughout the preseason that Sutton is Wilson’s first choice. I’d wager he’d at least be Wilson’s first-choice passer. Yes, Wilson will want to broadcast it in front of the crowd at Lumens Field.
Rashaad Penny rushes over 71.5 yards (-110), anytime TD +130
Denver’s running defense can’t be underestimated, but after averaging 92 yards and a touchdown in the final six games of the season, it’s hard not to support Rashaad Penny. In four of those games, he rushed for 135 yards or more. Seahawks guard Ken Walker is unlikely to wear his uniform on Monday, we know Seattle is a pre-emptive team and Jayno Smith is unlikely to light up the scoreboard. All of this creates a lot of work for Penny. SISB offers extra money on Penny’s touchdown props anytime, so jump on that value.
