Lamar Jackson takes the center stage Sunday night when the Baltimore Ravens host the Cleveland Browns at M&T Bank Stadium. 

Jackson is coming off a rough outing against a soft Miami Dolphins defense going 26-for-43 with 238 yards, 1 TD, and 1 INT. The Ravens managed just 10 points in the game and were beat soundly by one of the worst teams in the league. 

Can Jackson and this squad bounce back tonight after such an embarrassing performance? Or will Jackson struggle again after dealing with an undisclosed illness during the week?

Let’s review Jackson's prop odds at WynnBET Sportsbook for Sunday Night Football and see if we can find some value. 

Bold Predictions for Lamar Jackson vs Cleveland Browns

  • Lamar Jackson UNDER 1.5 Passing TD (-175) 
  • Lamar Jackson  UNDER 238.5 Passing Yards (-115)
  • Lamar Jackson UNDER 67.5 Rushing Yards (-115)

Lamar Jackson UNDER 1.5 Passing TD (-175)

Jackson has been in a bit of a funk in regards to passing touchdowns for most of this current season. Jackson, for all his success, has more than 1 passing touchdown in just two games He totaled three TD passes against the Vikings two weeks ago and four in Week 5 against the Colts. 

My feeling is that if you aren’t getting on the board in the passing game against the Dolphins, who are you scoring against? The team will be hungry coming off a loss but I don’t feel like Jackson will get it done in the red-zone passing game tonight. 

Lamar Jackson  OVER 237.5 Passing Yards (-125)

Despite my lack of faith in Jackson’s ability to throw two touchdowns tonight, the Ravens need to try and kick-start the passing game early. Jackson hasn’t gone over 275 yards passing in his four games but tonight’s total is pretty low all things considered. The Browns are a good team in defending the pass, but the Ravens offense is so unique that Jackson will have his shots at big gains. 

Jackson has gone over this total in five games this season including his last three games and I think that trend continues tonight. 

Lamar Jackson UNDER 67.5 Rushing Yards (-115)

Jackson is a true dual-threat QB who has the ability to break a run anytime, anyplace. So, his total here seems pretty reasonable at 67.5 yards. Twice in the last three games, he has gone well over this total with 120 yards against the Vikings and 88 against the Bengals in Week 10 & 11. 

Thing is, the Browns are very good at stopping the run and rank 8th in the NFL in YPG allowed to opposing rushers. This one should be close as Jackson is just so talented. But, in the end, I think he fails to make it to 68 yards against Cleveland.
