If we learned anything about the Green Bay Packers last week, it’s that they’re incredibly soft. The Steelers running backs brutalized them. It’ll be more of the same for our Chargers-Packers player prop pick for Week 11. It’s Austin Ekeler SZN — and we’re all in. If you’re hungry for more action, check out our NFL betting promos!

Chargers-Packers Player Prop Pick: Austin Ekeler
Let’s just start this off by recognizing that Austin Ekeler prop bet listed with a 60% win rate. And y’all already know, whenever I see a number like that from our projections, I’m smashing it.
The Chargers feel like they’re always missing one or two important players because of injury. Tight end Gerald Everett hasn’t practiced all week, tight end Donald Parham Jr. and wide receiver Keenan Allen are both banged up and have been limited all week. Oh, and did I mention that both Joshua Palmer and Mike Williams are still on injured reserve?

So, who the hell is left for the Chargers?
That was rhetorical. Austin Ekeler has gone over this 3.5 receptions number in four of his six games this season — but it should be five of six if he didn’t have butter fingers in that Jets game where he dropped approximately 371 balls. The Packers give up the seventh-most receptions per game to opposing running backs, and that’s Ekeler’s specialty. He has seen 22 targets over the last three weeks and should see a steady dose of them again this week. With all the injuries piling up for the Chargers’ receiving options, I’m all in on this Ekeler over 3.5 receptions prop.
