Top 3 Player Props

Player Prop #1: Lamar Jackson / Over Passing Yards / 245.5 at -115 / 70% / Jackson’s high CPOE and success rate against zone defenses like New England’s project for efficient volume, with recent games averaging 280 yards.

Player Prop #2: Derrick Henry / Over Rushing Yards / 85.5 at -110 / 65% / Henry’s red-zone efficiency and the Patriots’ weakened run defense (post-injury) support a strong ground game, aligning with his 100+ yard average in home starts.

Player Prop #3: Rhamondre Stevenson / Under Receiving Yards / 35.5 at -105 / 60% / Baltimore’s coverage ranks top-5 in limiting RB receptions, and Stevenson’s usage dips in road games against aggressive fronts.

⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public sentiment heavily favors the Ravens, aligning with sharp money distribution and simulation outcomes, making a follow strategy optimal rather than fading without EV support. No significant reverse line movement or injury-driven edges suggest contrarian value. The game projects as moderately high-scoring, with both offenses exploiting defensive weaknesses but totals leaning slightly over due to pace and recent trends.
