There’s a reason this O/U is so heavily slanted towards the over at the online sportsbooks. Kittle has 11 games over 3.5 receptions this year, and only six under.

Notably, one of his unders was against the Seattle Seahawks in the Wildcard Round. The Seahawks were arguably the best team he hit the under against – and it’s possible the NFL betting sites know it.

It seems possible that his usage declines against bad teams. Here’s the list of teams he hit unders against: The Rams, the Chargers, the Dolphins, the Saints, the Seahawks and the Rams again.

Of those teams, only the Dolphins and the Seahawks made the playoffs. The Dolphins are 19 in yards allowed while the Seahawks are 28th.

This could be a stretch, but it’s possible that Kittle simply isn’t needed against teams like that – teams that are either undermanned offensively or defensively. Only one of those games ended within one score.
