Buccaneers vs. Lions Divisional Round Prop Bet Picks

Baker Mayfield o253.5 passing yards

Mayfield has coasted over this number in four of his last five games, and he’s poised to do it again this week against Detroit’s pass funnel defense. Since Week 14, Detroit has allowed the highest yards per attempt and the most passing yards per game.

Rachaad White u55.5 rushing yards

Detroit will do everything in its power to shut down the Bucs’ running game and make them one-dimensional. Since Week 13, they have allowed the fewest rushing yards per game while having the third-highest stuff rate. White has not displayed the tackle-breaking ability this season to create yards on his own. Even if he gets a healthy dose of volume, he can still hit the under.

Mike Evans o69.5 receiving yards

Since Week 17, Detroit has the 11th-highest rate of single-high (58.6%). Evans has demolished single-high this season with a 26.6% target share, a 42.9% air-yard share, 3.0 YPRR, and a 31.6% first-read share. Since Week 14, Detroit has allowed the second-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.

Amon-Ra St. Brown o89.5 receiving yards

St. Brown has hit the over for this receiving yardage mark in 70% of his games. Since Week 17, Tampa Bay has ranked 10th in single-high rate (58.8%). Against single-high, St. Brown has had a superb 27.3% target share, a 31.1% air-yard share, 2.68 YPRR, and a 32.9% first-read share. He should have no issues cutting this secondary to pieces. Since Week 14, Tampa Bay has allowed the seventh-most receiving yards to opposing slot receivers.

Sam LaPorta o34.5 receiving yards

LaPorta should be St. Brown’s partner in crime this week as they demolish the Bucs through the air. Since Week 17, Tampa Bay has ranked 10th in single-high rate (58.8%). Against single-high, in the regular season, Ballgame had a 22.7% target share, a 25.4% air-yard share, 2.61 YPRR, and a 23.3% first-read share. Since Week 10, Tampa Bay has allowed the most receiving yards and the 11th-highest yards per reception to tight ends.
