Over/Under                  255.5
Edwards: First start after five practices and even his agent thinks it’s “insane” to start him this early. The Ticats pass rush hasn’t been great (eight sacks) but they are giving up 221 passing yards a game (second fewest in the CFL) and they’ve played Bo Levi and Reilly already. UNDER
Dunk: Vernon Adams threw for 217 yards and it should’ve been more against Edmonton.
Manziel is a much better passer and if the Alouettes are going to be in a tight game or behind 255 in the CFL isn’t a huge ask. OVER
Hodge: Manziel’s propensity for throwing downfield makes this number feasible, but I have concerns about Johnny’s protection up front and his receiving corps. For me, the under is the better buy. UNDER
Total Touchdown Passes – Johnny Manziel (MTL)
Over    1.5       +120   (6/5)
Under  1.5       -150    (2/3)
Edwards: One maybe, two no. The Alouettes have scored five passing TDs all season and the Ticats have allowed just four. UNDER
Dunk: Whether or not Manziel converts red zone opportunities will determine the outcome of the prop bet and Johnny Football could come through with his legs in those situations. UNDER
Hodge: Garbage time could help Johnny hit the over here, but I’m in agreement with Dunk — Manziel will be most effective in the red zone with his legs. UNDER
Total Completions – Johnny Manziel (MTL)
Over/Under                  19.5
Edwards: This would be a stayaway for me because Manziel can probably dink and dunk his way to the over and the Alouettes will be in passing mode if they’re trailing. Still. UNDER
Dunk: Manziel’s ability to scramble around and not have to just win from the pocket gives him a real shot at beating the number. OVER
Hodge: How willing is Johnny going to be to check the ball down? To me, this is the trickiest line. UNDER
Total Interceptions Thrown – Johnny Manziel (MTL)
Over    0.5       -190    (10/19)
Under  0.5       +155    (31/20)
Edwards: Even though the Ticats have just two INTs all year, you can’t hamner this OVER fast enough. I might have considered it at 2.5.
Dunk: Dangerous throws can be made on the run where Manziel seems to thrive. OVER
Hodge: Buying it at -190 hurts, but this pick is an obvious one. Given the way he plays, it’s hard to see Manziel not throwing a pick in his debut. OVER
