5 Historical Vegas Trends You Should Know for Week 14
What do the odds say for certain players -- like Chris Godwin's splits with high totals-- and how can your fantasy football team benefit in Week 14?

Road Favorite JuJu is a Problem

JuJu Smith-Schuster burned a lot of fantasy players last Sunday night, but that should only serve to keep his ownership in check. This week, he and the Pittsburgh Steelers are road favorites against the Oakland Raiders. JuJu has been particularly successful as a road favorite in his career. In these games, he's seen an additional target as well as 0.9 receptions and 31.3 yards compared to all other games.

JuJu is also a prime candidate for positive touchdown regression: He's been targeted 23 times in the red zone -- second in the NFL -- and caught just 3 red zone touchdowns. Based on his yardage (1,104 yards), we would expect him to have scored 2.6 more touchdowns as well. There's no better spot for that regression to hit than against the second worst passing defense, according to our team power rankings.

Antonio Brown will likely be the most popular Steeler this week, but at $7,500, JuJu is the best wide receiver value on the slate.
