Books have started to adjust props toward the median but if you are up to date on camp reports, coachspeak, role projections, etc there are tons of lines to pick off.
I have already released 7 season-long props, some of which are still available! (All of them are unders)

6. Why do season-long unders do so well?
There are so many extra outs for an under to hit instead of an over. An under can hit due to:
β’ Injury
β’ Poor performance
β’ Benching
β’ Roster changes impacting workload
β’ Poor QB play tanking the offense
β’ Bad OL play +many others

5. So, should you ever bet overs? It's tough.
The ONLY category (out of 29 tracked) to show a multi-year profit on overs is QB Rushing Yards at 58%. This trend was supercharged by the most recent season and on a super small sample.
β’ 2021: 50%
β’ 2022: 63%
β’ 2023: 40%
β’ 2024: 80%

4. The 3rd highest hit rate over the last 4 years is Receiving Touchdown UNDERS at 62%
β’ 2021: 58%
β’ 2022: 64%
β’ 2023: 64%
β’ 2024: 60%

3. The 2nd highest hit rate over the last 4 years is RB Rushing Touchdown UNDERS at 63%
β’ 2021: 72%

2. The single most profitable long-term bet has been Passing Yard UNDERS, hitting at a wild 69% over four seasons!
2021: 78%
2022: 71%
2023: 64%
2024: 67%

1. Blindly betting the under on season-long player props has hit over 60% for four consecutive years!
Under hit rate by year:

Sportsbooks have already posted HUNDREDS of NFL season-long player props for 2025!
I analyzed 1,053 props from the last 4 seasons and found 6 trends you need to know before betting the season-long prop market:

Justin Fields signs with the Jets on a two-year, $40M deal with $30M guaranteed.
Fantasy angle: Fields has supported WR1's in the past and has flashed fantasy upside as a runner.
Betting angle: Can't wait to bet the under on the Jets win total asap. Should open at 5.5 or less

This could be really fun. Mitchell brings them some juice that Pacheco couldn't really access off that injury

Chiefs are signing RB Elijah Mitchell on a deal up to $3.5M per Jordan Schultz.
Potentially big opportunity for Mitchell with both Hunt and Pacheco averaging under 4 yards per carry last season

On the other hand, Montgomery out-carried Gibbs 17-11 last time around against the Packers and recently was involved with leaking some plays/protections on Tik Tok. That may have no impact but I think there is a non-zero chance.

Reasoning:
"With no DJ Reader in the lineup, this Lions Rush defense is going from an elite unit to one of the most injured of the week.
"Heβs posted 18, 26, and 19 carries over his last three games and currently ranks 3rd in yards with 987 and 4th in attempts with 221."
