Steelers WR Diontae Johnson OVER 6.5 receptions
It’s hard to bet on any particular receiver regularly getting seven or more receptions per game, but this seems like a solid gamble this week. WynnBET’s odds set the over/under for Diontae Johnson at 6.5 receptions with a payout of -105.
Based on the trends in recent weeks, I would be willing to bet the over on the reception total for Johnson. Over the past three weeks, the shifty wide-out has earned 23 receptions (7,7, and 9, respectively). In fact, Johnson has earned seven or more receptions in 4 of his last 6 games.
Even with Pittsburgh’s offense struggling mightily against the Cincinnati Bengals last week in a game that saw the Steelers scoring just 3 points up until the final few minutes of garbage time, Diontae still recorded a stat line of 9 catches for 95 yards on 14 targets.
The fact that he has been targeted no less than 13 times in a single game over the past three weeks makes him a pretty safe bet to earn OVER 6.5 receptions in Week 13 again the Baltimore Ravens.
