Joe Mixon Rushing Yards 

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon is in a perfect bounce back spot on Monday Night Football. He rushed for just 46 yards and a score on 25 carries against the Detroit Lion stout front in Week 10. But, this week he faces a Dallas Cowboys defense that ranks dead last in rushing EPA. In fact, Mike Zimmer’s unit is allowing 152.7 rushing yards and 1.7 rushing touchdowns per game this season, sitting 31st in the NFL in both categories.

Mixon rushed for 100+ yards in four straight prior to the Texans SNF meltdown. He’ll be a huge part of the gameplan as Houston looks to do a better job controlling the clock against an overmatched Cowboys squad. The former Bengal has looked like his old, explosive self in his first year as a Texan. Back Mixon to have a big day, he’s my favorite NFL Week 11 ladder bet. 

NFL Week 11 Ladder bet: Joe Mixon 70+ rushing yards -235, Mixon 80+ rushing yards -155, 90+ rushing yards -105, 100+ rushing yards +135

Calvin Austin Receiving Yards

Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin has quickly become a significant part of the passing game with Russell Wilson under center. He’s seen 19 targets across his past four games, and has exceeded his 25.5 receiving yardage prop in three of those four contests. 

Baltimore's defense has struggled at times under new coordinator Zach Orr. They allow a whopping 199.2 yards per game to opposing wide receivers and will likely be without dynamo Kyle Hamilton on Sunday. 

Bet on Austin to thrive against a Ravens defense allowing a league-worst 294.9 passing yards per game. Ladder his receiving yards props and profit. 

NFL Week 11 Ladder Bet: Calvin Austin OVER 21.5 receiving yards -110, Austin 25+ receiving yards +105, Austin 40+ receiving yards +400, Austin 75+ receiving yards +1200

What is an NFL ladder bet? 

Laddering player prop wagers involves placing multiple bets on progressively higher thresholds of a player’s performance in a single game. For example, if you believe a wide receiver will exceed his yardage total, you might place a bet on him achieving 50+ yards, then smaller bets on him reaching 75+, 100+, and so on. We want to maximize potential profits “laddering” up performance levels. Should the player have a big game and hits the higher thresholds, each successful bet pays out, increasing your overall winnings. This NFL betting strategy allows you to capture value at multiple levels, especially when you anticipate a breakout performance.
