Amon-Ra St. Brown over 80.5 receiving yards -135
A career-season of 1,561 yards for St.Brown last year was a joy to watch. His breakout in Detroit has turned plenty of heads over the last two years and he’s become a must-bet player in the process. In his lone game against the Rams, he recorded 144 yards on 9 catches. The Rams’ secondary has hardly gotten better since then, and they’re now missing Darious Williams. This should open up plenty of opportunity for St. Brown to dominate once again.
Puka Nacua over 74.5 receiving yards -115
This might seem lofty for Nacua, but I think he’s being slept on in terms of betting and fantasy value this year. He’s gone under this total in 6 of his last 10 games and is going to be battling a dominant Detroit secondary, but if the Rams are going to be fighting from behind, Nacua is going to see plenty of targets and is a threat from anywhere on the field. I’ll stay aggressive and take what does feel like an slept-on total.
Matthew Stafford over 275 passing yards -105
Parlaying this with the Nacua pick makes sense. The Lions are a force to be reckoned with and there’s a strong chance that the Rams will be playing off the back foot. From a betting perspective, this is good news when backing a gunslinger like Stafford, who flew over this total in 5 of his last 6 games last year, including a 367 yard outing against Detroit in the playoffs. I like Stafford to once again cause havoc against his former team.
Jahmyr Gibbs anytime TD -125
If the Lions want to dictate the tempo of the game, it will mean plenty of carries for Jahmyr Gibbs, who found the endzone on 10 occasions last season and did so again when facing the Rams in the playoffs. So long as his recent injury concern is behind him, he should be in-line to see plenty of attention down at the goalline.
