Crosby has cleared this total in five of six games this season.

Crosby is known for his skill as a pass-rusher and his ability to rack up sacks. He has seven sacks, which is tied for ninth in the NFL entering this game — and he's yet to play in Week 8! Crosby is also the Raiders' top run tackler, though.

The Lions have allowed the third-most tackle opportunities on the season, and I'm projecting them for around 29.5 rush attempts tonight. That means this is a plus matchup for Crosby.

Both Jahmyr Gibbs and Craig Reynolds rank in the top eight among RBs in running to the right, which could lead to even more tackle opportunities for Crosby.

I'm projecting Crosby closer to five tackles in the run game, with any sacks — which count for this prop! — being icing on the cake.

For this specific prop, I'm projecting Crosby for closer to 5.5 tackles + assists with around a 62% chance of clearing this.

As of 2:50 p.m. ET, this line was available at both bet365 and BetMGM.

Pick: Maxx Crosby Over 4.5 Tackles + Assists (+105)
