P.J. Walker prop bets

There hasn’t been much to cheer for Carolina Panthers quarterbacks in 2022. However, the performance of P.J. Walker in Week 7 was the best of his career and a significant improvement on anything Baker Mayfield managed to accomplish before missing time.

Steve Wilks rightfully rewarded Walker with starting responsibilities once again in Week 8. This is another outstanding opportunity for the signal-caller when one examines how poor the Atlanta Falcons are at defending the pass.

They are currently giving up a whopping 306.6 yards through the air this season. This is ranked last in the league and the absence of stud cornerback A.J. Terrell with a hamstring problem means Walker and the Panthers could have a field day if offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo comes up with the right game plan.

Walker’s gone from an offseason afterthought to the team’s No. 1. A rags-to-riches story that could end up becoming a fairytale for the one-time XFL MVP candidate.

Producing on a consistent basis has been a difficult task for Walker throughout his career. However, looking at all the factors in this particular equation, betting on the quarterback going over 184.5 passing yards at -114 (bet $114 to win 100) with FanDuel Sportsbook looks very tempting indeed.
