Player Props – Week 15

Jets vs. Lions

Right now, Jared Goff’s passing yards prop is set at 222.5 yards (-110/-110).
The public has bet the UNDER down to 222.5 (-110) after it opened @ 231.5 (-114).

Pros

  • THE BLITZ projects the Lions to run the 7th-most total plays among all teams this week with 67.3 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
  • The New York Jets have stacked the box against opponents on 22.0% of their plays since the start of last season, 3rd-most in the league. Positioning an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
  • The Detroit Lions have gone for it on 4th down 27.9% of the time since the start of last season (most in the NFL), which typically means more offensive volume, more TD potential, and higher offensive stats across the board.
Cons

  • The Detroit Lions O-line grades out as the 4th-worst in the NFL this year in pass protection, which has a harmful effect on all passing attack stats across the board.
  • Opposing offenses have passed for the 3rd-least yards in the NFL (just 208.0 per game) against the New York Jets defense this year.
  • Opposing offenses have completed passes at the 6th-lowest level in the league versus the New York Jets defense this year (66.8%).
  • The New York Jets pass defense has shown good efficiency this year, giving up 6.72 yards-per-target: the 3rd-least in football.
  • The New York Jets cornerbacks profile as the best unit in football this year in pass coverage.
