Lions vs. Raiders Player Props: A Comprehensive Guide

The highly anticipated Week 13 matchup between the Detroit Lions and Las Vegas Raiders presents a wealth of player prop betting opportunities. From quarterback passing yards to running back rushing attempts, there's a wide range of player statistics to wager on. This comprehensive guide will provide an in-depth analysis of key player props, offering valuable insights and insights to help you make informed betting decisions.

Quarterback Props

Passing Yards

Jared Goff (Lions)

• Over 270.5 passing yards (-115)
• Under 270.5 passing yards (-115)

Goff has averaged 264.6 passing yards per game this season, but he's gone over 270.5 yards in just three of his 11 starts. The Raiders' defense has been generous to opposing quarterbacks, allowing an average of 268.1 passing yards per game. However, with Goff's inconsistency and the Raiders' improved pass rush, the under may be a safer bet.

Derek Carr (Raiders)

• Over 255.5 passing yards (-115)
• Under 255.5 passing yards (-115)

Carr has averaged 263.6 passing yards per game this season, but he's only gone over 255.5 yards in five of his 11 starts. The Lions' defense has been solid against the pass, allowing an average of 223.6 passing yards per game. With Carr's recent struggles and the Lions' strong defense, the under is the more appealing option.

Running Back Props

Rushing Attempts

D'Andre Swift (Lions)

• Over 15.5 rushing attempts (-120)
• Under 15.5 rushing attempts (-120)

Swift has averaged 15.5 rushing attempts per game this season, but he's only had more than 15 attempts in four games. The Raiders' defense has allowed an average of 27.4 rushing attempts per game, which is the seventh-highest in the NFL. However, Swift's injury concerns and the Lions' potential to fall behind early could limit his carries.

Josh Jacobs (Raiders)

• Over 15.5 rushing attempts (-115)
• Under 15.5 rushing attempts (-115)

Jacobs has averaged 18.8 rushing attempts per game this season, and he's gone over 15.5 attempts in all but two of his 11 starts. The Lions' defense has allowed an average of 25.3 rushing attempts per game, which is the 11th-highest in the NFL. With Jacobs' heavy workload and the Raiders' reliance on their running game, the over is the stronger pick.

Wide Receiver Props

Receiving Yards

Amon-Ra St. Brown (Lions)

• Over 80.5 receiving yards (-115)
• Under 80.5 receiving yards (-115)

St. Brown has averaged 90.0 receiving yards per game this season, but he's gone over 80.5 yards in just five of his 11 starts. The Raiders' defense has allowed an average of 224.5 passing yards per game, but they've been stingy against slot receivers. With St. Brown's inconsistency and the Raiders' defense's strength against slot receivers, the under is the more likely outcome.

Davante Adams (Raiders)

• Over 100.5 receiving yards (-120)
• Under 100.5 receiving yards (-120)

Adams has averaged 102.5 receiving yards per game this season, and he's gone over 100.5 yards in nine of his 11 starts. The Lions' defense has allowed an average of 250.1 passing yards per game, which is the fourth-highest in the NFL. With Adams' dominance and the Lions' struggles against the pass, the over is a strong choice.
