Player Prop Week 3

Minnesota Vikings vs Detroit Lions

 
 
 
Kirk Cousins Rushing Yards Prop is currently Over/Under 4.5 (-110/-120).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • The Vikings are a 6.5-point favorite in this week's game, likely leading to a rushing game script.
  • THE BLITZ projects Kirk Cousins to be a more integral piece of his team's running game this week (8.3% projected Carry Share) than he has been since the start of last season (0.9% in games he has played).
  • Kirk Cousins's rushing efficiency (6.89 yards per carry) has been some of the best in football since the start of last season (88th percentile among QBs).
  • Opposing offenses have rushed for the 4th-most yards in the league (140 per game) vs. the Detroit Lions defense since the start of last season.
  • The Detroit Lions defensive ends profile as the worst group of DEs in football since the start of last season when it comes to stopping the run.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The Minnesota Vikings will have a new play-caller this year in head coach Kevin O'Connell, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to skew 4.4% more towards passing than it did last year (in a neutral context).
  • THE BLITZ projects the Minnesota Vikings to be the 7th-least run-oriented offense on the slate this week with a 38.0% run rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • THE BLITZ projects the Minnesota Vikings to be the 9th-most sluggish paced defense in football (in a neutral context) right now, causing opposing offenses to average 27.66 seconds per snap.
  • This game will be played in a dome—meaning no wind, increased pass volume, increased touchdown potential, and increased passing effectiveness.
  • THE BLITZ projects Kirk Cousins to earn 2.0 carries in this week's contest, on average: the 8th-least of all QBs.
