Rams vs. Packers Player Props
- o35.5 receiving yards
- u10.5 rushing yards
- Any Time Touchdown Scorer
o35.5 receiving yards (-110)
The Green Bay Packers have two extremely talented cornerbacks, Jaire Alexander and Rasul Douglas. However, Alexander has played only 2.7% of his defensive snaps this year in the slot and Douglas has only played 28.2% of his defensive snaps in the slot. has been heavily used in the slot each of the last three weeks, which should afford him ample opportunity against the far-less-talented Green Bay cornerback, Keisean Nixon. Atwell has cleared this number in three of his last four games, and has seen his target share increase in each of those subsequent contests. Last week, Atwell saw a team-high nine targets in Mayfield’s first game with the team. Even in cold weather, this is a targetable number for bettors – take the over.
u10.5 rushing yards (-160)
On Thursday Night Football in Week 14, totaled only 10 rushing yards on four attempts, making him 6-2 to the under at this market number in his eight games this fall. Dating back to last October, Mayfield is 13-5 to the under on this market number, with only one game of 16-plus yards with his legs. Further supporting this play is the fact that linebacker De’Vondre Campbell returned to the field for the Green Bay Packers in Week 13. Campbell, one of the league’s premier linebackers, is one more reason that Mayfield could be hesitant to take-off and run in this spot. Though this play is juiced, the math makes sense here and should have a good chance to cash – take the under.
Any Time Touchdown Scorer (+135)
Since Week 11, the Los Angeles Rams have been one of the worst run defenses in the entire NFL, ranking 28th in defensive Rush EPA/play. In two of the last three weeks, the Rams have allowed an opposing running back to find pay-dirt – with scoring last Thursday and scoring on the ground in Week 12. Leonard Floyd remains a capable run defender for the Rams, but Jonah Williams, Greg Gaines, Larrell Murchison, and Michael Hoecht round-out an extremely weak defensive line overall. Jones has two touchdowns in the last four weeks and is consistently involved as both a runner and a pass-catcher. At plus-money, this is a worthwhile stab for bettors.
