We’ve made it to Bet #3 of the $25 to $800 Ladder Challenge! For those who don’t know what the hell that is, it’s simple. On Saturday, we started with $25 and put it on a two-leg, even money Panthers/Rams SGP. It hit. We then took our original $25 plus the $25 we won from the SGP ($50 total) and put it on an SGP for Sunday’s games. That hit, so now we’re rolling everything over to tonight’s Houston Texans/Pittsburgh Steelers game. Once we hit five bets in a row (we’ve got two down now), we will have successfully turned our original $25 into $800. What a world.
The good news is, even if you missed the first two bets, you can still join in the fun. Just start with this one as your first bet. It’s only a -112 banger, but we can always make up for the price with a longer odds move later. Feels easy.

Rams vs Bears SGP Leg #1 – Kyle Monangai Isn’t Some BS Guy
We’ve got to lock in at this point. Nobody wants to lose a ladder challenge on the second bet. In order to make sure we don’t do that, we need to make sure we’re not messing around with BS guy. Real ones only at this point.
Lucky for us, Kyle Monangai plays tonight, so we’ve got one real one already.
Here’s the thing with Monangai: he came out of nowhere. Not really nowhere, but a seventh-rounder out of Rutgers is basically out of nowhere. We can’t let college and draft status fool us, though. This kid is made out of 100% pure, pharmacy-grade testosterone. The kid ran for almost 800 yards this season, so he knows what he’s doing. We can trust him.
The thing is, we’re going to go with his receiving yards instead of his rushing yards. The books will never see it coming. What they don’t know is our guy Kyle looks like Jerry Rice out there in the receiving game. Over the last four games, he’s gone for 9+ receiving yards in all of them. He’s been targeted 3+ times in four of those games. Simply put, he’s going for 5+ receiving yards tonight. Feels easy.
LAR vs CHI Same-Game Parlay Leg #2 – D’Andre Swift Likes To Get Wet Too
This is where we show the books who we really are. They’re going to see that we have a running back going over his receiving yards, so they’re not going to expect us to pair him with another running back on the same team. It’s simply not done these days. Maybe back in the early 2000s, but definitely not now.
What we have to realize is that Kyle isn’t the only running back in the Chicago Bears’ stable. They’ve got D’Andre Swift, too.
The Bears split their running back work pretty evenly between Swift and Monangai, so we don’t have to worry about workload. Both guys will get theirs in the pass game. We just watched Swift catch 2+ balls in three of the last four games. What can I say, the Bears trust him to catch the ball.
The Bears will likely put that trust to use tonight since the Rams are susceptible to the running backs in the pass game. On the season, only six teams in the entire NFL allowed more receptions to the running back position. Last week, two different running backs caught balls against LA, and the week before that, three different running backs for the Cardinals caught passes against them. We’re likely looking at a first-half cash here. Feels easy.
