NFL: Detroit Lions at New York Giants
Jared Goff 12% STARTED
After a scorching start to the season, Goff has came crashing down to earth and now sits as the QB20 through 11 weeks.
If there was ever a week to throw a dart, it would be on Thanksgiving. Vegas is anticipating a shootout. The O/U is listed at 54.5 which is a full touchdown over the second highest projected total of the week.
Over Detroit’s recent three game winning streak, Dan Campbell has put a larger emphasis on the run, but odds are, the Lions (+9.5) will be chasing points to keep up with Buffalo’s high octane offense.
In five homes games this season, Goff is averaging 20.4 points, which equates to the QB7. The Lions were tackled at the one THREE TIMES on Sunday vs. the Giants. That trend won’t last. Goff is a QB1 this week and worth starting in a expected shootout.
