Richie James Receiving Yards
Player Prop Week 1

Kansas City Chiefs vs Detroit Lions

Richie James Receiving Yards Prop is currently Over/Under 25.5 (-110/-110).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 23.5 @ -110 before it was bet up to 25.5 @ -110.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

THE BLITZ projects the Kansas City Chiefs to be the most pass-centric team among all teams this week with a 63.8% pass rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.

THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 5th-highest volume of plays run out of all the games this week at 129.6 plays, based on the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.

Opposing offenses have averaged 34.8 pass attempts per game versus the Detroit Lions defense since the start of last season: 10th-most in football.

The Kansas City Chiefs offensive line profiles as the 10th-best in the NFL since the start of last season in protecting the QB, which has a positive effect on all pass attack stats across the board.

Richie James has been among the most sure-handed receivers in football, hauling in an impressive 85.1% of balls thrown his way since the start of last season, checking in at the 100th percentile among WRs.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

The Chiefs are a 3.5-point favorite in this week's game, likely creating a rushing game script.

THE BLITZ projects Richie James to be much less involved in his team's passing attack this week (6.2% projected Target Share) than he has been since the start of last season (16.1% in games he has played).

Richie James has been among the bottom wideouts in football at grinding out extra yardage, averaging a measly 2.53 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) since the start of last season while checking in at the 18th percentile.

The Kansas City Chiefs have been faced with a stacked the box on a mere 9.3% of their plays since the start of last season, least in the league. Positioning an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.

The Kansas City Chiefs have gone no-huddle on a mere 1.8% of their plays outside the two-minute warning since the start of last season (least in the NFL). This slows down the pace, leading to less volume and stat accumulation.
