NFL Prop For Packers vs. Lions
Marquez Valdes-Scantling Under 3.5 Receptions
Aaron Rodgers is coming off arguably his worst NFL game as a starter and will be looking to bounce back against the Lions in front of a national audience.
The Lions secondary is a disaster, which means Rodgers should have his way tonight. I’m projecting him to lean heavily on his go-to receiver Davante Adams and spread the ball around to his ancillary pass catchers.
Valdes-Scantling is the vertical threat in this offense and usually has a wide range of outcomes any given week. He could have a massive game with just a few catches.
However, I do like him to go under 3.5 receptions tonight as I’m projecting him closer to 2.9 receptions. Last season, MVS went under this number in 10 of 14 games. I would bet this down to -145.
