The Ravens look to recover from their devastating collapse in Week 2, but have to go through Bill Bellichick and the Patriots to do so. Both teams are 1-1, looking to get over .500. The list of offensive stars in this game isn’t super long, but there are still several players to watch and bet on. 

Here are three prop bets to look for in Ravens-Patriots.

Best Prop Bets For Ravens-Patriots Week 3

  • Lamar Jackson OVER Passing Yards 
  • Rhamondre Stevenson UNDER Rushing Yards
  • Mac Jones OVER Passing Completions

Lamar Jackson OVER Passing Yards 

Jackson has cleared this line in both games this season and didn’t even have a fantastic day in Week 1. With Rashod Bateman showing his speed last week, the Ravens have a few weapons they can comfortably trust against this Patriots defense. Jackson hasn’t been sacked a lot, is averaging nearly 30 attempts per game and has a few emerging weapons. His accuracy also looked good last week, so I’ll trust him again going into Week 3. 

Rhamondre Stevenson UNDER Rushing Yards

Stevenson was supposed to be in a full committee with Damien Harris, but Stevenson hasn’t been able to get going this season. After a solid showing against the Steelers – the worst rushing defense in the league – Stevenson took a step back last week. He still hasn’t seen at least 10 carries in a game, which is concerning to me.

The Ravens are one of the best rush defenses in the league and without a lot of carries, I don’t see Stevenson having himself a day. 

Mac Jones OVER Passing Completions

Jones has missed the OVER on this prop in both games by one completion. However, the number of times he’s throwing the ball this year is encouraging. He’s thrown the ball at least 30 times in both games and has a fairly decent completion percentage. I expect Jones and the Patriots to be down in this game, so he’ll have even more opportunities to throw the ball.

The Ravens’ passing defense looked like it had some holes in it last week. If they haven’t fixed those issues, Jones can take advantage.
