Odds provided By DraftKings On 9/13/2024
Kenny Clark Over 1/4 Sack @ +154
Kenny Clark is a strong bet for the Packers vs. Colts game, especially with Anthony Richardson’s habit of running and scrambling. And that often leaves him vulnerable a lot. In Week 3, Richardson was sacked by two average interior linemen from the Texans, as an example. He was also sacked 7 times in just about 3.5 games during 2023 before getting injured. While Colt’s offensive line didn’t struggle much in Week 1, the sacks were on Richardson’s decision-making more than anything.
We’ll also note, the Colts’ offensive line and game planning helped rank them in the top 12 in allowing production from the interior in 2023. And they ended up landing in the top 5 during Week 1. So this makes Clark’s chances in this matchup even better from my point of veiw. With Richardson’s scrambling and Clark’s consistent Pro Bowl ability to pressure. Betting on Clark to get over 1/4 sack at +154 is a very smart play.

Drue Tranquill Over 1/4 Sack @ +290
The Bengals vs. Chiefs game is a great spot for defenders to take advantage of Cincinnati’s offensive line issues. Or whatever it was they had to deal with. The Chiefs know all they have to do is apply the pressure. And I’m sure that’ll create plenty of chances to get after the Burrow. SLB Drue Tranquill was officially blitzed six times in Week 1, despite having little preseason action. And even when he isn’t sent on a blitz, ideally he’s hanging up in the box, and not in coverage. Giving him a few more opportunities to get the sack.
It’s also important to note that Week 1’s matchup featured Lamar Jackson, a very different quarterback style compared to Joe Burrow. Burrow, who was sacked three times in Week 1 and 24 times in just 10 games last season. Like, “deer in the headlights”, different. The Bengals’ offensive line ranked in the top 12 for allowing edge production WK1 overall, so that’s promising. I’ve watched Tranquill for quite a few years, and that’s why I’m taking Tranquill to get over 1/4 sack at +290 in this matchup versus Burrow, and the Bengals.
Jonathon Cooper Over 1/4 Sack @ +130
I really like Jonathon Cooper as a strong bet for the Steelers vs. Broncos game, especially with the Steelers’ reputation in pass rusher production. In Week 1, Cooper had a sack and looked like he picked up right off where he left off from last year. The Steelers rank among the top teams for allowing pressure off the edge regularly. And that’s going to play into Cooper’s strengths, plus he’s already warmed up? And both Justin Fields and Russell Wilson are also known for taking sacks in one form or another, making this even more ideal.
The Steelers O-Line isn’t necessarily the problem here either. That’s if we know anything about the two quarterbacks’ history. Plus add in Mike Tomlin’s game style of ball control, and we’re good to go. It’s apparent, Cooper has consistently exceeded expectations for a 7th-round draft pick, earning 14 starts in his first two seasons. Last year, he started every game and recorded a career-high 8.5 sacks while playing a majority of snaps. Not to mention the Broncos ranked in the top 5 for pressure rate in Week 1, that helps. As I said, I really like Cooper this week and I’m taking the over 1/4 sack at +130 this offers in a heartbeat.
I’m definitely confident enough to Parlay all three of these NFL Player Sack Props, that’s a given bet. Check out more week 2 best bets here!
