Austin Ekeler Rushing TD
Player Prop Week 5

Cleveland Browns vs Los Angeles Chargers

 
 
 
Austin Ekeler Rushing TD Prop is currently Over/Under 0.5 (+160/-200).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • Austin Ekeler has rushed for 0.50 TDs per game on the ground this year (on average), one of the highest marks in the league among running backs (91st percentile).
  • Opposing squads have run for the 3rd-most touchdowns in the league (1.25 per game) versus the Cleveland Browns defense this year.
  • The Cleveland Browns defensive tackles grade out as the worst DT corps in football this year in regard to defending the run.
  • The Los Angeles Chargers have risked going for it on 4th down 27.6% of the time since the start of last season (2nd-most in the NFL), which usually means more offensive volume, more TD potential, and higher offensive stats across the board.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • THE BLITZ projects the Los Angeles Chargers as the 4th-least run-heavy offense in the league near the goal line (context-neutralized) at the present time with a 37.2% red zone run rate.
  • THE BLITZ projects the Chargers to run the 11th-least offensive plays among all teams this week with 64.2 plays, given their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
  • THE BLITZ projects Austin Ekeler to be a much smaller piece of his team's run game near the goal line this week (50.2% projected Red Zone Carry Share) than he has been this year (63.6% in games he has played).
  • The Los Angeles Chargers offensive line grades out as the 4th-worst in the league this year at run-game blocking.
  • The Los Angeles Chargers have been faced with a stacked the box on 18.4% of their plays since the start of last season, 9th-most in football. Bringing an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
