PrizePicks Over/Under DFS Props Contests
PrizePicks is a great DFS picks site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play.
On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
Before diving into some solid fantasy score totals this week, we must first cover the PrizePicks scoring format. The format is PPR, which stands for "point per reception," meaning every reception is worth one point.
Rushing and receiving touchdowns are worth six points, and passing touchdowns are worth four points. Each rushing or receiving yard is worth .1, meaning every 10 yards of either is worth one point. Quarterback passing yards are worth .04, which means every 25 passing yards are worth one point.
If you ever have questions, you can always click the "scoring chart" option above the player selections for each contest. Now, let's get to some solid fantasy score props for this week.

Jared Goff LESS than 270.5 passing yards
This is currently listed as the top prop on the PrizePicks Optimzier with a 54.75% chance of success. The reason this prop is atop the chart is due to the fact that most books have this listed at under 271.5 -141, which gives us solid odds. Goff has eclipsed this total in just three of his seven games thus far in 2023. The Lions are also 7.5-point favorites in this game and could be running the ball a bit more late in the game to seal up a victory.
Jahmyr Gibbs MORE than 65.5 rushing yards
This is probably my favorite play in the game as Gibbs will be the feature running back while David Montgomery is still recovering from an injury. Gibbs has eclipsed this total in two of his previous three games while averaging 12 carries per game over this span. He also has a solid matchup against this Raiders' defense.
On the season, the Raiders have allowed the sixth-most total rushing yards to the running back position. They have also allowed an average of 93 rushing yards per game to the running back position over the previous four weeks. With the Lions being 7.5-point favorites and expected to cruise to victory in this game, Gibbs should see plenty of opportunities to carry the ball here.
Davante Adams MORE than 74.5 receiving yards
Although Davante Adams has eclipsed this total in just three games this season, he has seen enough volume while averaging over 10 targets per game to give this prop a look. Adams and the Raiders, as aforementioned, are 7.5-point underdogs, so they will likely be throwing the ball a bit more in this game, which is good news against this Lions' pass defense.
Over the previous four weeks, Detroit has allowed an average of 188 receiving yards to wide receivers. They have also allowed a wide receiver to eclipse this total in each of their previous four games. This feels like a good spot for Adams to get right.
Other Recommendations: Brandon Aiyuk MORE than 5.0 receptions
