Best NFL Prop Bets for Lions vs. Vikings
- Sam LaPorta OVER 4.5 receptions
- David Montgomery OVER 53.5 rushing yards
Sam LaPorta OVER 4.5 receptions
Sam LaPorta has instantly established himself as one of the best tight ends in the NFL. He has hauled in at least five receptions in three of his last four games and is averaging 5.1 receptions per game this season so I see no reason why he can't reach this number again this weekend.
The Vikings are giving up the third most completions per game this season at 24.9,
David Montgomery OVER 53.5 rushing yards
David Montgomery has seen his work load go up recently. He has played over 50% of offensive snaps in two of the last three weeks and ran for a combined 151 yards on 27 carries over the last two weeks, averaging 5.59 yards per carry. I'm banking on him having another big performance on Sunday.
