Here are some of his stats and rankings among NFL receivers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>87 receptions (2nd)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>933 receiving yards (5th)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>71.8 yards\/game (1st for tight ends)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Desmond Ridder is set to start for the Raiders and he looked for his tight ends a lot when he took over in the fourth quarter last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In that final frame, Bowers recorded two of the three catches he had in the game, accounting for 37 of his 49 total yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He fell under this mark in the end, but that production with Ridder hints at a lot of promise moving forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Atlanta doesn&#8217;t pose a huge threat on the defensive side, either. The Falcons allow the eighth-most passing yards against per game (229.1) and are coming off a 21-point loss to the Minnesota Vikings where two receivers had north of 130 receiving yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Bowers has a 24.3% target share, which ranks fourth for TEs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cousins over 239.5 passing yards (-125):<\/strong> Cousins was dealing with multiple arm injuries earlier in this season but he&#8217;s ramping back into form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the Week 12 bye, Cousins has cleared this mark in back-to-back games, which included throwing for 344 yards in last week&#8217;s loss to the Vikings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The veteran QB tied his second-highest yards per attempt (9.3) for any game this season and that to me is a good sign his arm is healing nicely. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Las Vegas began the season with a competent defence, but the wheels have fallen off in the second half of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Six straight QBs have surpassed this total against the Raiders dating back to Week 8. Las Vegas has allowed 279.2 passing yards per game over that span.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 1:39 p.m. ET 12\/15\/2024.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Atlanta Falcons meet the Las Vegas Raiders in the second of two Week 15 Monday Night Football games.
