John Hansen (0:14)

Good afternoon. Welcome to another edition of Prop Points here on VSiN. I'm John Hansen of fantasypoints.com. The program Per Usual is produced by Mr. Michael Cohen. And what a program we have coming at you right now here on VSiN. It is week one in the National Football League, the Super Bowl rematch between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. Seattle is favored by three and a half points. I believe the total is 43 and a half or 44 We'll break down NFL news and storylines here at the tippy top of the program. Take a look at the injury report.

Well, at least for tonight's game, because that's the final injury report. We'll also, of course, on a game day, we dive deep into the data. You may have to excuse me a little bit. I'm going to probably be looking at my computer a little bit more than usual. The new Fantasy Points Data Suite 2 is absolutely unbelievable. Information overload, but I'm going to refer to some data points and some strengths and weaknesses for all the players based on the data with the matchups. As we go along, I'll probably end up starting that segment here in segment number one. We'll probably take a look at the quarterbacks and the pertinent data points here in the first segment. Then we'll come back for segment two at 15 past the hour. We'll talk all the other data points for the passing game most importantly, and also the running backs. Our guy, Brett Whitefield, is set to join us every Wednesday starting next week. He had a prior commitment. He actually scheduled a podcast like two and a half months ago with someone. He is a man of his word. So I guess he forgot about this little spot. So he's currently recording a podcast. So our guy, Ryan Heath, though, do not fear the fastest rising star in the fantasy and betting industry in the country, in the world. He will join us for some week one NFL player props. We'll promote his Twitter, which you really should be following if you're into getting stuff right in terms of understanding the data and more. Then at the end of the program, it is game day. I will pop out my official plays for tonight's game, as well as a Wednesday night special.

In terms of the plays real quick, as I've been stating, I went a little overboard. It was, I think it was just under 500 picks that I made here on this show or well over 400 That's a bit much. So I am going to probably make about the same number of recommendations, if you will. But I'm trying to preserve my record to get it up to like 60% would be nice. I know that's not easy to do, but that's my goal. So we're going to pop out six recommendations. Three are going to be official picks, but the first three, we're just going to call them liens. So the first three would be my top three. The next three, the liens would be my bottom three to make six picks total. So hopefully, that makes some sense here. We do have information on the liens as well. I think we should keep track of the liens just in case. My biggest fear, by the way, is that the liens out-produce the picks. Because obviously, if I'm leaning one way, then I'm certainly inclined to play it. So that's the concern. So we'll see how that works out. Make sure you download the Prop Points podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever the heck you get your pods. All right, NFL news storylines, some quick headlines here. Baker Mayfield and the Bucks did in fact agree to a contract extension. I saw Baker at the podium yesterday, $165 million. My man was smiling ear to ear. So A, he's happy, but B, he won't be pissed. And I kind of like angry Baker. So it's probably a wash on one hand, no more distraction. On the other hand, maybe he loses a little bit of the edge that Baker Mayfield has from time to time in his career. Aaron Donald not going to make the trip. He will not travel to Australia. Let's take a look real quick while I'm talking about the games tomorrow and today. Let's take a look at tonight's injury report. As we know, Trevion Henderson has been ruled out for Seattle.

Nick Imanwari, I mean, come on, I watch Hard Knocks. Dude was walking around on crutches like two weeks ago.
