Cardinals-Rams Prop Bet
Van Jefferson Under 4.5 Receptions
I’m projecting Jefferson closer to 4.0 receptions against the Cardinals on Monday Night Football, which would give him a 62% chance of going under this line. He’s only gone over 4.5 receptions in two of 12 games this season. Clearly his upside is higher right now with Robert Woods out for the year, but Odell Beckham Jr.’s role is only going to grow within the offense.
I think the sweet spot for Jefferson’s usage was Weeks 10-13, when Woods was out of the lineup and Beckham was getting up to speed. That window is likely closed and I expect Beckham to run a route on more than 80% of Matthew Stafford’s drop backs tonight, which should eat into Jefferson’s share. I would bet this down to -155.
