Ian Thomas Receptions
Player Prop Week 3

Carolina Panthers vs New Orleans Saints

Ian Thomas Receptions Prop is currently Over/Under 1.5 (-130/+100).

The money has been on the Under as it opened 2.5 @ -350 before it was bet down to 1.5 @ +100.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

The Carolina Panthers will have a new play-caller this season in offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to skew 2.8% more towards passing than it did last season (context-neutralized).

THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 2nd-most plays run out of all the games this week at 127.7 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.

The New Orleans Saints pass rush has gotten pressure on opposing quarterbacks 2.55 seconds after the snap (on average), ranking as the 4th-most sluggish in football since the start of last season.

The Carolina Panthers have faced a stacked the box on 19.7% of their plays since the start of last season, 6th-most in football. Bringing an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

THE BLITZ projects the Carolina Panthers to be the 6th-least pass-heavy offense among all teams this week with a 55.8% pass rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.

The Carolina Panthers offensive line ranks as the worst in the NFL since the start of last season in protecting the quarterback, which has a negative impact on all passing game statistics across the board.

Ian Thomas has been among the weakest TEs in the pass game since the start of last season, averaging a mere 1.3 receptions per game while ranking in the 17th percentile among TEs.

Ian Thomas's possession skills have worsened this year, with his Completion% shrinking from 64.8% to 54.4%.

The New Orleans Saints pass defense has allowed the 2nd-lowest Completion% in football (61.4%) to tight ends since the start of last season (61.4%).
