Right now, Tyler Lockett Receiving Yards Prop is Over/Under 58.5 (-115/-115).

The money is on the Over: it opened 57.5 @ -115 before it was bet up to 58.5 @ -115.
PROS:
  • In terms of playing time, Lockett ranks in the #94 percentile among wide receivers. He has been on the field for 87.3% of his team's snaps this season.
  • In terms of route running, Lockett ranks in the #93 percentile among wide receivers. He has run a route on 92.7% of Seattle's dropbacks this season.
  • In terms of earning targets, Lockett ranks in the #92 percentile among wide receivers. The QB has looked his way on 25.3% of passes this season.
  • Lockett ranks in the #81 percentile and has put up 9.33 yards per target this season.
  • This year, the Seahawks have played in the #10-most bad-weather games -- i.e. rain, snow, or 15 mph+ wind. Lockett's efficiency almost certainly took a hit in these games, and this should mean better things in better conditions.
  • The Detroit Lions have allowed 8.65 yards per target to opposing wide receivers this year: #23-highest among NFL opponents.
  • As a unit, the Lions cornerbacks rank #31 in pass coverage.
  • In a neutral context, Seattle has run the #3-fastest paced offense this season.
  • In a neutral context, this offense passes the ball 62.8% of the time (#10 in the NFL).

  • CONS:
  • Bad weather has been shown to have a negative impact on a receiver's numbers, and the weatherman currently calls for rain in this game.
  • The Detroit Lions rank #10-highest in the league in Completion% to opposing wide receivers this year at 64.9%.
  • The Seattle Seahawks are projected to run 61.7 plays in this matchup, the #25-most on the game slate.
  • The Seahawks are a 9.0 point favorite. This indicates an extreme rushing game script.
  • THE BLITZ projects Seattle to drop back to pass on 52.3% of their plays in this game (#28-highest rate of the week) based on their tendencies and matchup-specific factors.
  • Seattle's O-Line grades out as the #26-best in the NFL in protecting the passer this season, which impacts how much time their QB has to find Lockett open.
  • Defenses leave more areas of the field open to the pass when they stack the box to stop the run. The Seahawks have faced the #28-most stacked boxes in the league this year (9.2%).

  • NEUTRAL:
  • This week, THE BLITZ projects Lockett for a -0.1% higher target share than he has garnered this season (perhaps due to team injuries, a change in role, or matchup dynamics), one of the most notable differences of the week.
  • Lockett's 66.7% completion rate marks him in the #59 percentile among receivers.
  • The Lions's pass defense ranks #14-best in the NFL against wide receivers, allowing 153 yards per game this season.
  • As a unit, the Lions safeties rank #20 in pass coverage.
  • Seattle's offensive has kept pressure off the quarterback for 2.51 seconds on average this year (#22-most in the NFL), influencing his ability to scan for open receivers.
  • Seattle has run play-action on 25.1% of their passes this year, #19-most in football. Play action passes lead to a higher completion rate as the defense bites on the run.

  • PROJECTION:
    THE BLITZ projects Lockett to exceed his player prop total 53.6% of the time. He projects for 63.3 Receiving Yards (on average) in this matchup.

    According to THE BLITZ, there is positive value on the OVER, with an expected value of $0.28. That makes its return on investment yield +0%.
