2024 NFC Championship odds: Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs prop wagers popular with bettors

Updated Jan. 24, 2024 6:09 p.m. ET

Jahmyr Gibbs of the Detroit Lions is the most-bet prop player at BetMGM for Sunday's NFL conference championship games.

Gibbs had 114 yards of total offense (74 rushing yards with a 31-yard touchdown and 40 receiving yards) in the 31-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the divisional round.

"Jahmyr Gibbs, the electric running back, 114 total yards and a touchdown in this game, took over in the second half," FOX Sports Dallas Cowboys Insider David Helman said.

"Just looked like he was playing at a different speed than everybody else on the field. … Shout out to Lions general manager Brad Holmes, who took all the hell in the world this spring for drafting a running back in the top 15."

Added FOX Sports' Colin Cowherd, host of "The Herd": "Jahmyr Gibbs — he's as dynamic and twitchy as any running back in the league."

How the Lions are simply a good team, not a Cinderella team

Picking Gibbs in the first round raised eyebrows as Detroit signed free agent running back David Montgomery a month before the draft. Gibbs had 1,261 scrimmage yards (945 rushing, 316 receiving) and 11 touchdowns during the regular season.

The Lions drafted tight end Sam LaPorta and safety Brian Branch in the second round, then raised eyebrows again by advancing to the NFC Championship Game for the first time since the 1991 season.

Not bad for a franchise that went 3-13-1 in 2021 and started last season 1-6 before finishing 9-8.

"They are not here without their rookies. Brad Holmes, it's a testament to good drafting," Helman said. "They fit into Dan Campbell's culture. … Can't say enough about the turnaround from the time Campbell got there a couple of years ago, turning that second-half surge into momentum for this year."
