Josh Jacobs Receptions
Player Prop Week 15

Las Vegas Raiders vs New England Patriots

 
 
 
Josh Jacobs Receptions Prop is currently Over/Under 2.5 (-110/-115).

The money has been on the Under as it opened 2.5 @ +105 before it was bet down to 2.5 @ -115.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • This game will be played in a dome—which means no wind, higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.
  • Opposing QBs have averaged 37.0 pass attempts per game versus the New England Patriots defense this year: 10th-most in the NFL.
  • THE BLITZ projects Josh Jacobs to earn 4.1 targets in this game, on average, ranking in the 90th percentile among running backs.
  • Josh Jacobs has been heavily involved in his team's passing offense, earning a Target Share of 12.2% this year, which places him in the 89th percentile among running backs.
  • The Las Vegas Raiders offensive line ranks as the 6th-best in football this year in pass protection, which has a positive effect on all pass game stats across the board.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The Las Vegas Raiders boast a new play-caller this year in head coach Josh McDaniels, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to skew 3.1% more towards rushing than it did last year (in a neutral context).
  • THE BLITZ projects the Raiders to run the 7th-least total plays among all teams this week with 63.2 plays, accounting for their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
  • The New England Patriots pass defense has allowed the 7th-lowest Completion% in the league (76.2%) vs. running backs this year (76.2%).
  • The New England Patriots safeties grade out as the 3rd-best unit in the NFL this year in covering pass-catchers.
  • The Las Vegas Raiders have used play action on a mere 16.4% of their dropbacks since the start of last season (least in football), creating a more one-dimensional offense that hurts passing production.
