Derek Carr Interceptions
Player Prop Week 16

Pittsburgh Steelers vs Las Vegas Raiders

Derek Carr Interceptions Prop is currently Over/Under 0.5 (-149/+115).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 0.5 @ -130 before it was bet up to 0.5 @ -149.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

The Las Vegas Raiders O-line ranks as the 6th-best in the league this year in pass protection, which has a strong impact on all pass game metrics across the board.

Derek Carr has totaled 0.76 interceptions per game this year, ranking in the 20th percentile among quarterbacks.

The Pittsburgh Steelers cornerbacks project as the 4th-worst collection of CBs in the league this year in covering receivers.

The Las Vegas Raiders offensive line has given their QB 2.64 seconds before the pass (8th-best in the NFL since the start of last season), which has a strong impact on all pass attack stats across the board.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have stacked the box against opponents on 21.0% of their plays since the start of last season, 6th-most in the NFL. Positioning an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

The Las Vegas Raiders will have a new play-caller this season in head coach Josh McDaniels, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to lean 2.9% more towards rushing than it did last season (context-neutralized).

THE BLITZ projects the Raiders to call the 7th-least plays on offense on the slate this week with 62.5 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.

The weather forecast calls for 13-mph wind in this game. High wind usually means lower pass volume (and increased run volume) and worse passing effectiveness.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have intercepted 0.95 throws per game this year, grading out as the 2nd-best defense in the NFL by this metric.

The Las Vegas Raiders have used play action on just 16.4% of their passing plays since the start of last season (least in the NFL), which ultimately hampers passing efficiency.
