Training camp has ramped up, and the 2023 NFL season will be here before you know it. That means more and more NFL player props are being released week by week.

NFL Rookie QB Performance Predictions with Betting Odds
by Mike Allen - 8/3/2023

We will likely see three different rookie quarterbacks start multiple games for their teams in 2023. These studs were all drafted within the top 4 selections.

Which ones can we use to predict how these athletes perform throughout the regular season?

NFL First Coach Fired Props Predictions and Betting Odds
by Mike Allen - 8/3/2023

I don’t think the first head coach to be fired will be from one of the teams projected to lose the most games like the Arizona Cardinals, for example. They don’t have the highest of expectations, obviously, so they are much less likely to set their skipper to sail before the midpoint of the NFL regular season.

by Mike Allen - 8/3/2023

I realize that people probably say this every year, but I have been following the NFL for decades, and I don't remember a time when we had so many different storylines heading into week 1 of the regular season. Where do we start? The Aaron Rodgers drama in Green Bay is finally over.

2023 NFC South Predictions with Betting Odds and Expert Analysis
by Joey House - 7/31/2023

While the NFC South may have been the weakest division in football (no team finished above .500), it was the tightest division in the NFL as well, with only one game separating all four teams.

by Joey House - 7/31/2023

The AFC North is expected to be a hotly contested division this season, with the proposed win totals ranging only from 11.5 wins (Cincinnati) to 8.5 wins (Pittsburgh).

Make sure you turn to Docs all season long to see exactly who will come out on top.

2023 NFC West Predictions with Betting Odds and Expert Analysis
by Joey House - 7/28/2023

The NFC West looks like it will be a two-team race again between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks.

Trust that Docs will guide you every step through the 2023 NFL season and point you in the direction of the winners.

2023 NFC East Predictions with Betting Odds and Expert Analysis
by Joey House - 7/27/2023

A very compelling case could be made that the NFC East was, up and down, the toughest division in the NFL last year. It featured a Philadelphia Eagles team that was tied for the best record in the NFL and was Super Bowl runner-up. It had two wild-card playoff teams, and the worst team had a .500 record, the only division in the NFL without a losing record. With some interesting changes, this year's version promises to be just as unpredictable as last. What you can predict, with 100% certainty, is that Doc’s will have a game plan to deal with the unpredictable NFC East and the whole NFL.
