Jared Goff M/L 32.5 Pass Attempts
The first meeting between these NFC North rivals came back in Week 9, when Jared Goff and the Lions secured a 24-14 win at Lambeau Field.
The Lions’ ground game stood out in that matchup, allowing Goff to take a backseat in the passing attack. He attempted just 22 passes, completing 18 for 145 yards and one touchdown. David Montgomery led the rushing effort with 17 carries for 73 yards, while Jahmyr Gibbs added 65 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries.
Stokastic’s NFL DFS projections have Goff attempting only 30 passes tonight, and that seems like a realistic expectation. The Lions are likely to replicate their successful ground-heavy approach, especially against a Packers run defense that has struggled. With the dynamic duo of Montgomery and Gibbs, Detroit should lean on their rushing attack once again, limiting the pressure on Goff in the air.
DraftKings Pick6 Prediction: Jared Goff Less Than 32.5 Pass Attempts
Jordan Love M/L Than 259.5 Passing Yards
Jordan Love has struggled to maintain efficiency as a passer this season, completing just 63% of his throws. Against the Lions, he managed only 23 completions on 39 attempts (59%) for 272 yards.
Stokastic’s NFL DFS projections have Love slated for 248 passing yards this evening. With Detroit dealing with significant injuries along their defensive front, Green Bay is likely to lean on their ground game, led by Josh Jacobs, to control the clock and limit opportunities for one of the NFL’s top offenses. This approach should help keep Love under 259.5 passing yards.
DraftKings Pick6 Prediction: Jordan Love Less Than 259.5 Passing Yards
