Lamar Jackson LESS THAN 214.5 Passing Yards
Jackson has thrown for exactly 207 passing yards in both of his matchups versus the Steelers this season. The Ravens QB has thrown for fewer than 214.5 passing yards in three straight games and five of his last seven contests. LESS THAN on Prizepicks for Week 19, especially if he misses Zay Flowers.
Pat Freiermuth LESS THAN 45.5 Receiving Yards
Pat Freiermuth was the standout target for Wilson in Week 18, catching eight passes for 85 yards and scoring a touchdown—12 targets when you include penalties. The Steelers’ tight end was targeted on 39% of his routes run. I’d expect him to continue to produce in another plus-matchup for TEs in Week 19. However, the Ravens have had his number this season. Freiermuth added 14 yards on two receptions from 2 targets in the first matchup versus the Ravens. The second game, he recorded three receptions for 16 yards. It might be wise to take the LESS THAN 45.5 receiving yards this week on PrizePicks.
Dalton Schultz MORE THAN 29.5 Receiving Yards
Schultz has 29-plus receiving yards in five of his last eight games. I like bringing his receiving yards prop down to 29.5 yards and taking the MORE THAN on Prizepicks.
Jayden Daniels MORE THAN 229.5 Passing Yards
Jayden Daniels also contributed to the passing game with 38 yards on six completions from 12 attempts, although he did not find the end zone. Daniels was pressured on 41.2% of his dropbacks on the day, the 2nd-highest rate he has faced this season (Next Gen Stats). According to head coach Dan Quinn, Daniels only played 45% of the snaps after being held out in the second half due to ‘leg soreness’. The injury is not considered serious, and he is expected to play against Tampa Bay next week. The rookie quarterback has exceeded his passing yards projection in three straight games this season (when healthy), and that streak should continue against Tampa Bay. Take the MORE THAN 229.5 passing yards on Prizepicks in Week 18.
Jalen McMillan MORE THAN 50.5 Receiving Yards
It’s been five straight strong games for Jalen McMillan–19% Target share, 7 TDs, and 63 receiving yards per game with 24 catches for 316 yards and 7 TDS. Five straight overs with at least 51 receiving yards. More than 50.5 receiving yards on Wildcard Weekend? Yes, please.
