Lions vs. Ravens: NFL Week 7 Same Game Parlay Odds & Picks

The weather is cooling off, the days are getting shorter, and NFL fans around the country are getting ready to sit in front of their TV for 10 consecutive hours of football on Sunday. What better way to get in on the action than a few same game parlays? Here are my top same game parlay picks for Lions vs. Ravens.

NFL Same Game Parlay Odds & Picks: Lions vs. Ravens

Lions @ Ravens

Lions +3 (-120)
Gus Edwards U43.5 Rush Yards (-115)
Sam LaPorta U43.5 Rec Yards (-115)

This should be the most interesting game of the early slate, but I think the Lions will play well enough to cover the 3 point spread on the road. Detroit is undefeated on the road this year, and has covered the spread in all their wins. They also have the best rush defense in the league, which I expect to cause problems for the Ravens. In particular, Gus Edwards hasn't gone over 48 rushing yards in any of his last three games, and now goes against a Lions' run defense averaging just 3.1 yards per carry. Edwards should be in for an inefficient day, and if the Ravens trail he won't get enough volume to go over his rushing total of 43.5.

Sam LaPorta has been a bright spot for the Lions this year, but he has a very tough matchup as well. The Ravens allow just 25 receiving yards per game to opposing TEs, the second-lowest average in the NFL. While LaPorta will command Baltimore's attention, I think he also stays under his 43.5 yard prop total.

What is a Same Game Parlay?

Parlays have gained popularity because of the potential that they provide to the bettor to make large sums of money without having to provide the cash up-front that it would take to make the same amount if you were to bet each game individually. With the increase in popularity and money coming into the sportsbooks, FanDuel rolled out the Same Game Parlay, and other sportsbooks soon followed.

The same game parlay brings the elements of the parlay into one single game. They offer a ton of options within the same game to allow the bettor to be able to take these options and combine them within one game.
