Jonathan Taylor Receiving Yards
Player Prop Week 8

Houston Texans vs Indianapolis Colts

 
 
 
Jonathan Taylor Receiving Yards Prop is currently Over/Under 10.5 (-110/-110).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • At a -5-point disadvantage, the Colts are underdogs this week, implying more of a reliance on throwing than their usual game plan.
  • The predictive model expects this game to see the 3rd-largest volume of plays run on the slate this week at 131.1 plays, based on the traits of each team and game dynamics.
  • The passing games of both teams (including both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (read: no wind) inside this dome, while rush volume may decline.
  • In regards to air yards, Jonathan Taylor ranks in the towering 75th percentile among running backs this year, totaling a superb 0.0 per game. (considering most of their targets come behind the line of scrimmage, this is far more remarkable than it sounds since most RBs average negative air yards).
  • The Indianapolis Colts offensive line grades out as the best in the league this year in protecting the passer, which has a positive effect on all passing game statistics across the board.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • Accounting for their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the Colts to pass on 53.5% of their plays: the 8th-lowest frequency among all teams this week.
  • The 5th-lowest number of plays in the NFL have been run by the Colts this year (a mere 53.7 per game on average).
  • Jonathan Taylor has been much more involved in his team's offense this year, playing on 75.8% of snaps compared to just 55.6% last year.
  • Jonathan Taylor's 62.2% Adjusted Catch Rate this season reflects a meaningful drop-off in his pass-catching proficiency over last season's 77.7% figure.
  • This year, the tough Houston Texans defense has allowed a meager 23.0 adjusted receiving yards per game vs. opposing running backs: the 4th-fewest in football.
