The Ravens travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers in a battle for first place in the AFC North. Here are some Lamar Jackson prop bets to consider at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Lamar Jackson Prop Bets
Here are Lamar Jackson’s current prop bet odds at DraftKings Sportsbook: o/u 240.5 passing yards, o/u 42.5 rushing yards and o/u 1.5 passing TDs. Jackson is +215 to score a touchdown, +1700 to score 2+ touchdowns and +1200 to score the first touchdown of the game.
Lamar Jackson is the favorite to win the NFL MVP at odds of -110 at DraftKings Sportsbook. He is having an incredible season and is arguably playing his best football in the past couple of weeks. Over the past six games, Jackson has thrown for at least 280 yards in every game and has a preposterous 19-1 TD-INT ratio. That is an average of over three passing touchdowns per game over a six-game stretch. That makes his passing touchdown prop against the Steelers a must-bet.
Jackson is using his legs less and less as his career progresses, even throughout this season. Over the first six games of the season, Jackson had double-digit carries in four of those six games, including two rushing touchdowns. In his past four games, he has had single-digit carries in every game and hasn’t rushed for a single touchdown. Earlier in his career, Jackson’s instincts told him to take off and run for the end zone when the Ravens would get into scoring position. He has become much more poised in the last couple of seasons, particularly in the past few weeks of this season, inside the red zone. Jackson is constantly looking to get the ball out quickly or when he does improvise, he is looking downfield for a target.
The Steelers are a tough defensive matchup, but their numbers are slightly skewed due to the relatively easy schedule of offenses they have faced this season. The Steelers have only faced one quarterback in the top ten in the league, ranking by EPA+CPOE composite, and that was rookie Jayden Daniels. Lamar Jackson is the best quarterback in the league by EPA+CPOE composite and will be a whole different animal for the Steelers to defend. Jackson should keep his hot streak going and throw multiple touchdown passes in this game.
Pick: Lamar Jackson o1.5 Passing Touchdowns (-130)
