Packers vs. Vikings NFL Player Props for Sunday Night Football
- Justin Jefferson OVER 81.5 Receiving Yards
- Jordan Love OVER 22.5 Completions
- Jaren Hall OVER 0.5 Interceptions
Justin Jefferson OVER 81.5 Receiving Yards (-110), BetMGM
This market number is low due to the fact that the Vikings are starting an unproven 5th-round draft pick at quarterback tonight, but we still have to remember that Justin Jefferson is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL playing a defense with more holes than a cheese-head hat. Since Week 13, the Packers rank dead last in pass defense DVOA. Their secondary unit ranks 28th in DVOA against opposing #1 wide receivers for the season. Jefferson has eclipsed this market number 6 of 8 games this fall and is deserving of our trust here, even with Jaren Hall throwing him passes.
Jordan Love OVER 22.5 Completions (-125), Bet365
Since Week 11, Jordan Love has four games with at least 23 completions and only one game with fewer than 22 completions. Facing a blitz-happy Minnesota pass rush on Sunday, the emphasis for Love should be getting the ball out quickly, which could lead to a high number of short completions. According to props.cash, each of the last four starting quarterbacks to face the Vikings have gone over their pre-game market number for completions. This is an attainable number for Love in this matchup.
Jaren Hall OVER 0.5 Interceptions (-120), BetMGM
Jaren Hall has not thrown an interception in his first 10 NFL pass attempts, but he should have plenty of opportunities to make a mistake on Sunday Night Football. Assuming Minnesota is forced to open up the playbook tonight with their season on the line, Hall, who struggled with accuracy in college, will have to take a few shots downfield. Though the Packers have one of the worst defenses in the NFL, this is still a good value on a rookie who is essentially making his first career start. Turnovers can also be random at times, which gives us a chance to cash this play on a deflected ball.
