Falcons vs. Raiders: 3 Player Props for Monday Night Football

Happy Monday to all! Week 15 of the NFL season has been pretty crazy thus far. We had a fantastic matchup between the Detroit Lions and Buffalo Bills on the Sunday afternoon slate, a game that many are calling a Super Bowl preview, along with several other awesome games throughout the day.

The week isn’t over yet! The schedule-makers blessed fans with not one, but TWO Monday Night Football games for us to enjoy. It should be a great night of dual-NFL action, so we hope you have both of your screens ready!
With that in mind, we’ve compiled our favorite player props for each game, hoping to hit it big in each contest. 

Let’s take a deeper dive into our plays from the intriguing matchup between the Atlanta Falcons and the Las Vegas Raiders!

Bijan Robinson OVER 82.5 Rushing Yards

Bijan Robinson has been on a tear over the past few weeks. He started the year with a few down performances by his standards, but he’s starting to figure it out, which is music to fantasy football manager’s ears.

Robinson has eclipsed 90 rushing yards in three of his last four games, going for north of 100 in two of those outings. We’re not fading him now, especially since he’s facing a subpar Raiders rushing defense.

Look for Robinson to have another monster game, especially if the Falcons get out to an early lead.  

Sincere McCormick OVER 55.5 Rushing Yards

If Sincere McCormick wasn’t on your radar a month ago, we don’t blame you. He’s a second year running back out of UTSA, but he hasn’t gotten much playing time until the past few weeks, as the Raiders have asked him to step in due to injuries.

McCormick has made the most out of his time in the spotlight, putting up 64 rushing yards in his first week as the starter, and 78 yards against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week.

He’s on a roll, and until he shows otherwise, we’re just going to take the over on his rushing yardage prop, unless of course, it gets out of control and causes us to reevaluate. 

Kyle Pitts UNDER 36.5 Receiving Yards

Paging Kyle Pitts! Paging Kyle Pitts! Seriously, where the heck is this guy? Fans thought that adding Kirk Cousins to the Falcons’ offense would be great for Kyle Pitts, but that hasn’t been the case this year. Pitts has struggled to make a name for himself on this team, especially in recent weeks.

He’s been targeted 11 times in the past three games, only to achieve two catches for 23 yards. Not exactly what the Falcons wanted out of the highest-drafted tight end in league history.

We can’t trust him in this game, or any game, for that matter, until he proves to have a consistent role in the offense. That said, we’re fading his receiving yardage props until further notice.
