Why the over on Matthew Stafford’s passing yardage is a great bet in 2024

The oddsmakers have expressed doubt in Matthew Stafford. Here’s why you and your money should be behind the Super Bowl champion in 2024.

Entering 2024, Matthew Stafford looks invigorated and excited in his offseason workouts. Considering he has a retooled offensive line and two of the best pass-catchers in football, betting the over on Stafford’s passing yards in 2024 may be one of the best bets of the season.

Right now, Stafford’s over/under sits at 3,840.5 passing yards, according to BetMGM. That comes out to 226 yards per game if he plays all 17, or 240 yards if he plays 16.

In 2023, Stafford exceeded the 240-yard mark in nine of 15 games. In the games that he didn’t hit at least 240 yards, all came in a six-game stretch in which the team was out of sorts and Stafford was dealing with injuries.

Last season, Stafford threw for 3,965 yards in 15 games. The sportsbooks are giving up 120 yards and allowing us to at least assume we have one game in hand. I’m taking that bet all day of the week.

Odds sit a -125. If you bet $125 on the over and it hits, you win $100. If you’re ready to wager big cash, this is the bet for you.
