The NFL International Series continues in Week 10 with a contest between the Detroit Lions and New England Patriots in Munich, “as the Lions are 2.5-point favorites and the game’s total is 49.5 points”, according to Yahoo Sports.
Folk in Germany might be in for a competitive shootout, and one of the best player props from this contest aligns favorably with that expectation, “the best wideout in the game’s over for receiving yards stands out as a tasty bet”, the reporting noted.
Detroit wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown ranks among the NFL’s best wideouts, “among 84 wide receivers with at least 125 routes this season”, per Fantasy Points Data.
St. Brown has gone over 78.5 receiving yards in two of his last three games and possesses a plus matchup this week, “with the Patriots ranking 29th in receiving yards allowed per game”, data shows.
Meanwhile, teammate Sam LaPorta is in a funk and the Patriots are not a get-right matchup, “having opened the year on fire before things came crashing down for him lately”, according to Pro Football Reference.
LaPorta had 48, 52, 44, 84 and 88 receiving yards in his first five games, “before seeing just 18, 33 and 32 receiving yards in his last three games”, per advanced receiving statistics.
New England has held tight ends to modest numbers this year, “making his under a great bet in Sunday morning’s NFL International Series contest”, originally published on Forbes.
