| Record | Unit Profit |
|---|---|
| 19-27 | -.8 |
Puka Nacua Receiving Yards
Puka Nacua is the unquestioned leader in the Los Angeles Rams clubhouse. Despite missing time earlier this season, Nacua finished with 990 receiving yards, or 90 yards per contest.
He's seen an unreal 45 targets across his last four games played, and will likely see an even higher volume in the playoffs. The former BYU star dominated the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7 to the tune of seven catches for 106 yards on nine targets.

Nacua led the NFL with a 43.6% target rate, and a staggering 4.07 yards per route run. Despite missing six games he finished 9th in yards after catch with 447. Crucially, he finished second with a 38% target rate versus man, which the Vikings play a heavy dose of. Bet on Puka to thrive in this Monday night matchup against a Vikings defense surrendering over 183 yards per game to receivers.
Wild Card Weekend Ladder Bet: Puka Nacua OVER 88.5 receiving yards -114, 90+ receiving yards -110, 100+ receiving yards +132
Olamide Zaccheaus Receiving Yards
Don't look now, but Olamide Zaccheaus has quietly become a huge part of the Washington Commanders passing attack.
Zaccheaus has four straight games with at least 36 receiving yards, and has his yardage prop set at 36.5 for Sunday night's showdown with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Virginia product has seen an insane 26 targets across the past four weeks, and will be heavily involved in the gameplan this week.

Tampa will be dead set on limiting Terry McLaurin's impact in this game, which will open plenty of opportunities for Zaccheaus to get open. Moreover, the Buccaneers defense is banged up heading into Wild Card Weekend, with defensive backs Jamel Dean, Mike Edwards and Tykee Smith failing to practice on Wednesday. Bet on Zaccheaus to have a big day against Tampa.
Wild Card Weekend Ladder Bet: Olamide Zaccheaus OVER 36.5 receiving yards (-110), 40 + receiving yards (-102), 50+ receiving yards +165
