Jeff Wilson Carries Prop is currently Over/Under 11.5 (-140/-105).
Key Factors
Favors Over
Jeffery Wilson has been much more involved in his team's rushing attack this year (49.4% Carry Share in games he has played) than he was last year (27.9%).
The Miami Dolphins offensive line ranks as the 10th-best in football this year at opening holes for rushers.
The Miami Dolphins have been faced with a stacked the box on just 12.1% of their plays since the start of last season, 5th-least in football. Keeping an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
The Miami Dolphins have gone no-huddle on 13.9% of their plays outside the two-minute warning since the start of last season (7th-most in the NFL). This speeds up the pace, leading to more volume and stat-padding.
Favors Under
The Miami Dolphins will have a new play-caller this season in head coach Mike McDaniel, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to tilt 1.3% more towards passing than it did last season (adjusted for context).
The Dolphins are a big 14-point favorite in this week's game, which points towards an extreme rushing game script.
THE BLITZ projects the Miami Dolphins as the 5th-least run-oriented team among all teams this week with a 34.5% run rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
THE BLITZ projects the Dolphins to run the 2nd-least plays on offense on the slate this week with 61.6 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
The Miami Dolphins have called the 10th-least plays in the NFL this year, totaling a measly 56.1 plays per game.
