The oddsmakers are predicting a blowout in the Week 8 MNF game between the Lions and Raiders. The Lions, being the hometown favorites, are set as 7.5-point favorites in the odds. With the Raiders’ struggles in the running game and the Lions’ strong run defense, it is expected that the Raiders will rely heavily on their passing game, especially since they may find themselves playing catch-up throughout the game. Expect QB1 Jimmy Garoppolo, who is returning from a back injury, to take advantage of this situation and throw the ball frequently.

Raiders vs Lions Props: Davante Adams Receiving Yardage
Davante Adams, the star wide receiver for the Raiders, has been a king of prime time performances in the NFL. In his nine Monday Night Football games, he has scored six touchdowns and accumulated 710 receiving yards on 51 catches, giving him an impressive average of 78.9 yards per game. This average is above the assigned total of 75.5 yards for Adams in this game. Adams will also benefit from the return of Garoppolo, as he has averaged 79.2 receiving yards and caught three touchdowns in the five games that Garoppolo has started. Furthermore, Detroit has struggled to contain top wide receivers throughout the season, as evidenced by Adam Thielen, DK Metcalf, and Tyler Lockett all surpassing their receiving yardage props in games against the Lions. With Adams’ deep threat ability and Garoppolo’s likely reliance on him in the passing game, especially in the event of the Lions taking a big lead, Adams has a strong chance of going over 75.5 receiving yards.
Prop Pick: Davante Adams Over 75.5 Receiving Yards: -115 (1 unit)

Raiders vs Lions Props: Jahmyr Gibbs Receiving Yards
In the absence of David Montgomery, rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs has emerged as the primary back for the Lions. In last week’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens, Gibbs showcased his versatility by recording 11 carries for 68 yards and making nine receptions on 10 targets for 58 yards. With the Lions facing issues on the offensive line, quick outlet passes to Gibbs could be a valuable weapon for the team against the Raiders. As a result, we anticipate Gibbs to contribute significantly in the receiving game once again.
Prop Pick: Jahmyr Gibbs Over 26.5 Receiving Yards: -115 (1 unit)
