Detroit Lions vs. Washington Commanders - 8pm ET / 1am GMT (Sunday) / 2am CET (Sunday)
Washington Commanders player prop best bet
Jayden Daniels 51.5 rushing yards: OVER
Daniels will have a tougher matchup against the Lions this week but may face an easier defense. What is more difficult is the Lions offense could put up 40 or more points.
That means Daniels is going to have to have a big game. The Lions are likely to try to take away the deep ball, so expect Daniels to break the pocket often and pick up a ton of yards on the ground, which is why we would like him to go over 51.5 rushing yards.

Detroit Lions player prop best bet
Jahmyr Gibbs 114.5 rush + rec yards: OVER
With David Montgomery out injured in the past few weeks, Gibbs has turned up his production a lot.
Even if Montgomery is back, Gibbs will continue to get a similar number of touches because he has been incredible.
He has rushed for at least 100 yards in the past three weeks and had 30+ receiving yards. That will not stop this week, as we expect Gibbs to go for at least 130 yards.
Detroit Lions best bet: Detroit to cover the spread -9.5 (-108)
The Commanders will give the Lions a game in the first half, but Detroit will force Jayden Daniels into a few mistakes in the second half. That will lead to Detroit pulling away and winning this one comfortably.
Looking at trends, the Lions covered four of six games this season when favored by a touchdown or more.
