    Jonathan Coachman is joined by top sports betting experts Allie O'Neal, Justin Perri and Larry Hartstein on the Early Edge podcast, powered by SportsLine. Get the prime plays for Major League Baseball, college football and the NFL for Monday, September 6.

    The Coach updates us on NFL Futures episodes and reveals the full schedule of afternoon shows, including NFL and college football previews and special prop programming. Justin talks about how it is a best to take a patient approach as NFL lines move throughout the week. Larry looks ahead to Dallas' opener and how offensive line issues are impacting the Cowboys' outlook. 

    The SportsLine Play of the Day is Ole Miss -9.5 over Louisville at 8 p.m. ET. Many are expecting a shootout, but Ole Miss does have an advantage because of its defense. 

    Allie's featured MLB play is the Dodgers -0.5 in the first five innings over the Cardinals at 4:15 p.m. ET. Los Angeles has won all of Max Scherzer's starts since he was acquired, and Miles Mikolas does not figure to last long in this one. 

    Justin has a trio of MLB selections and also goes in against the Cardinals by taking the Dodgers to score Over 4.5 runs. He is on a similar path as Allie as he eyes Mikolas as a target. Justin recommends the Royals and Orioles Over 5.5 runs at 1:05 p.m. ET. Kris Bubic can be a disaster both on the road and in day games. He finishes up with the Mets -125 over the Nationals at 1:05 p.m. ET. "The Mets have been playing pretty well recently," he says. "Yeah, their bullpen hasn't looked great, but the Nationals bullpen has looked worse. They're going to trot out Trevor Williams, and he had a 0.69 ERA in August." 

    Larry issues his first NFL prop of the 2021 regular season, going with CeeDee Lamb Over 4.5 receptions in Cowboys-Buccaneers on Thursday at 8:20 p.m. ET. Dallas will be playing from behind and Lamb had superb numbers when playing with Dak Prescott for a limited time in 2020.
