Josh Jacobs Receptions
Player Prop Week 8

Detroit Lions vs Las Vegas Raiders

 
 
 
Josh Jacobs Receptions Prop is currently Over/Under 3.5 (-105/-125).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 3.5 @ +100 before it was bet up to 3.5 @ -105.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • The Raiders will be forced to use backup QB Brian Hoyer in this week's game, which typically means fewer pass attempts and more rushes.
  • The Raiders are a massive 7-point underdog in this week's game, which points towards an extreme passing game script.
  • This game will be played in a dome—meaning zero wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and increased passing effectiveness.
  • The Lions defense has been a glaring pass funnel this year, inciting opposing teams to attempt the 4th-most passes in football (40.0 per game) this year.
  • The model projects Josh Jacobs to garner 4.8 targets in this week's contest, on balance, putting him in the 95th percentile among running backs.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • Based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics, the Las Vegas Raiders are anticipated by the model to run just 60.7 plays on offense in this contest: the fewest on the slate this week.
  • The Las Vegas Raiders have run the fewest plays in the league this year, totaling just 54.4 plays per game.
  • Josh Jacobs's possession skills have diminished this year, with his Adjusted Catch Rate decreasing from 86.3% to 72.0%.
  • The Detroit Lions pass defense has yielded the 2nd-lowest Adjusted Completion% in football (69.7%) vs. RBs this year (69.7%).
