• It is loud and clear that these bets are purely based on luck. But if you want to jump into this game, then you need to understand that just luck is not going to give you good results as there are a bunch of other tricks you need to know and learn to become a prop in NFL prop bets.

• Examples of NFL player props

• The NFL player props are different than the team props as these bets are placed on individual players focusing on their overall performance. For these bets, you need to research and analyze the performance of the player in the past and the ongoing season to get the right anticipation. You will also find a lot of over/under bets on the performances of the players. Here are some of the player props examples:

Once you know what all lines are released every week, you will be able to understand which lines are inefficient and which can be resourceful to you.

• Know the trends

• To be successful in NFL sports bets, the key is to be consistent with hitting the player props so that you would know what all players are overvalued for the week’s game and who are undervalued. Do some research on the stats and the numbers and you will surely find some gaps so that you can deploy a successful strategy.

• In the end, the important trick is to do what you know the best and keep working on your betting skills as you move ahead in the game. But always make sure to be careful and have fun at the same time.
