Richie James Receiving Yards
Player Prop Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs vs Las Vegas Raiders

 
 
 
Richie James Receiving Yards Prop is currently Over/Under 15.5 (-115/-115).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 10.5 @ -120 before it was bet up to 15.5 @ -115.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • Given their underlying play style and matchup dynamics, the model projects the Chiefs to pass on 60.6% of their plays: the 8th-highest rate among all teams this week.
  • As it relates to pass protection (and the positive effect it has on all passing game stats), the offensive line of the Kansas City Chiefs ranks as the 10th-best in the NFL this year.
  • With an outstanding 81.3% Adjusted Catch Rate (98th percentile) since the start of last season, Richie James ranks as one of the most reliable receivers in football among wideouts.
  • Richie James profiles as one of the most efficient receivers in football, averaging a fantastic 8.97 adjusted yards-per-target since the start of last season while checking in at the 78th percentile among wide receivers.
  • This year, the poor Las Vegas Raiders pass defense has conceded a colossal 69.2% Adjusted Completion Rate versus opposing wide receivers: the biggest rate in football.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The Chiefs are a massive 10.5-point favorite this week, indicating an extreme rushing game script.
  • Windy weather conditions (like the 15-mph being called for in this game) generally correlate with worse passing efficiency, reduced air volume, and increased rush volume.
  • Richie James has been used less as a potential pass-catcher this season (15.6% Route Participation Rate in games he has been on the field) than he did last season (60.4%).
  • Richie James has totaled significantly fewer air yards this year (15.0 per game) than he did last year (31.0 per game).
  • Richie James's 9.0 adjusted yards per game on passes this season conveys a significant regression in his pass-catching talent over last season's 45.0 mark.
