Christian Kirk Receiving Yards
Player Prop Week 5

Jacksonville Jaguars vs Houston Texans

 
 
 
Christian Kirk Receiving Yards Prop is currently Over/Under 66.5 (-110/-110).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • The Jacksonville Jaguars boast a new play-caller this season in head coach Doug Pederson, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to lean 2.3% more towards passing than it did last season (context-neutralized).
  • THE BLITZ projects the Jaguars to call the 6th-most plays on offense among all teams this week with 66.4 plays, accounting for their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
  • THE BLITZ projects Christian Kirk to notch 8.5 targets this week, on average, ranking in the 86th percentile among wideouts.
  • Christian Kirk has been a more integral piece of his team's air attack this season (26.4% Target Share in games he has played) than he was last season (18.3%).
  • Christian Kirk has accumulated many more air yards this year (78.0 per game) than he did last year (72.0 per game).

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The Jaguars are a huge 7-point favorite in this game, likely creating an extreme rushing game script.
  • THE BLITZ projects the Jacksonville Jaguars to be the 11th-least pass-oriented team on the slate this week with a 56.6% pass rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • The weatherman calls for 12-mph wind in this game. High wind typically means reduced pass volume (and higher run volume) and decreased passing effectiveness.
  • Christian Kirk's ball-catching skills have declined this season, with his Completion% falling off from 74.9% to 60.6%.
  • The Jacksonville Jaguars have faced a stacked the box on a measly 11.1% of their plays since the start of last season, 3rd-least in the NFL. Positioning an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
