Sunday Night Football is a matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens. These AFC North rivals met just 3 weeks ago in Pittsburgh, where the Ravens squeaked out a 16-14 victory. In that game, the Ravens rushed for a ridiculous 215 yards and Mitch Trubisky stepped in for Kenny Pickett, throwing 3 INTS in the process. Tyler Huntley was held to only 88 passing yards on the day, but the run game made up for it. The Ravens have clinched a playoff berth but are still chasing the Bengals for the division title as they are only one game back . Let's look at a few player props in what should be another low-scoring affair.
Pat Freiermuth over 3.5 receptions (-125)
The Ravens defense has been above average against tight ends in the yards column, but they do allow 6.9 targets per game to opposing TEs, tied for 9th-most. Freiermuth saw 6 targets in the first matchup, but finished with only 3 receptions and I largely attribute that to Mitch Trubisky being under center. Last season, Freiermuth saw a target jump from Game 1 vs Baltimore to Game 2 vs Baltimore and I'm expecting the same tonight. He should see 7-8 targets and have no issue hauling in 4 receptions, but the yards may be tough to come by. Either way, George Pickens will have his hands full with Marlon Humphrey on the perimeter and the focus will be on stopping Najee Harris from getting going in the run game. Freiermuth should have plenty of easy looks in the play action. 1U
