49ers vs. Lions Player Props
49ers QB Brock Purdy Over 274.5 Pass Yards
Purdy is having a stellar season with the San Francisco 49ers, racking up 4,532 passing yards, 32 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions.
At home, Purdy’s performance shines, with 309.4 yards per game and 11.0 yards per attempt over seven games.
This weekend, Purdy faces the Detroit Lions, who are giving up the fourth-most passing yards in the league (268.4 per game) and 7.8 yards per attempt this season. In recent games against quarterbacks like Baker Mayfield, Matthew Stafford, Nick Mullens, and Dak Prescott — the Lions have recently allowed an average of 373.6 passing yards.
With his array of weapons and the Lions’ weak defense, Purdy has the potential to exceed 300 passing yards.
- The Prop: Brock Purdy Under 274.5 Pass Yards (-116)
49ers VS. Lions Predictions
Starting as 7.0 point favorites at home, San Francisco has seen the lines move in their favor, now sitting at -7.5.
Even though the 49ers picked up a win in their previous game, they got off to a slow start on offense. Despite being favored vs. the Lions, I like the Lions to cover the spread (+7.5).
