Cam Akers Receiving Yards
Player Prop Week 9

Atlanta Falcons vs Minnesota Vikings

Cam Akers Receiving Yards Prop is currently Over/Under 4.5 (-108/-120).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

At a -3.5-point disadvantage, the Vikings are underdogs this week, implying more of an emphasis on passing than their usual game plan.

The model projects the Vikings to be the 7th-most pass-focused team among all teams this week with a 62.9% pass rate, accounting for their underlying traits and matchup dynamics.

Accounting for their underlying strategic approach and game dynamics, the Vikings are forecasted by the projection model to call 65.5 offensive plays in this contest: the 6th-highest number among all teams this week.

The passing offenses of both teams (including both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (meaning zero wind) inside this dome, while ground volume may suffer.

When talking about protecting the quarterback (and the positive effect it has on all pass attack statistics), the O-line of the Vikings grades out as the 3rd-best in football this year.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

Cam Akers has run fewer routes this year (17.1% Route Participation% in games he has played) than he did last year (30.5%).

This year, the tough Falcons defense has yielded a measly 26.0 adjusted receiving yards per game vs. opposing running backs: the 7th-fewest in football.

The Atlanta Falcons pass defense has been quite strong when opposing running backs have gotten into space, yielding an average of 6.19 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) this year: the 4th-fewest in the NFL.

As it relates to safeties in defending pass-catchers, Atlanta's collection of safeties has been tremendous this year, profiling as the 9th-best in the NFL.
