Week 17 Saturday Night Player Props – Lions vs. Cowboys

This figures to be an exciting game between two explosive offenses. But sometimes these premium primetime matchups don’t live up to all the hype, which is why my props aren’t too aggressive.

The sportsbooks project superstar WR’s Ceedee Lamb and Amon-Ra St. Brown to continue their great play and their odds reflect it. Needing over 80 yards and 5 receptions for a minimal payout isn’t worth it to me so I’m staying away from those guys.

I’m staying away from the QB’s too mostly for those same reasons. Let’s take a look at tonight’s picks:

RB Jahmyr Gibbs +3 Receptions -235

The Cowboys are averaging 5 catches allowed to opposing RB’s over last 5 weeks.

TE Sam LaPorta +4 Receptions -275

Dallas has allowed 4 or more receptions to opposing TE’s in 8 out of the last 9 games.

RB Tony Pollard +40 Rushing Yards -290

Detroit has allowed the 4th most rushing yards per game on the road this year and the 5th most in the last 3 games.

Jake Ferguson +40 Receiving Yards -192

The Lions have allowed the 11th most receiving yards against opposing TE’s this year.
