Puka Nacua Receiving Yards
Player Prop Week 1

Los Angeles Rams vs Houston Texans

 
 
 
Puka Nacua Receiving Yards Prop is currently Over/Under 71.5 (-112/-112).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • The predictive model expects the Los Angeles Rams to be the 6th-most pass-heavy offense among all teams this week with a 60.5% pass rate, accounting for their underlying traits and matchup dynamics.
  • The projections expect the Rams to run the most offensive plays on the slate this week with 66.8 plays, given their underlying propensities and game dynamics.
  • The passing attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and efficiency) stand to benefit from the calm weather conditions (1-mph wind) being projected in this game, while ground volume may suffer.
  • The model projects Puka Nacua to total 10.8 targets in this week's game, on average, ranking him in the 100th percentile among wideouts.
  • Puka Nacua has notched a whopping 85.0 air yards per game last year: 89th percentile when it comes to wideouts.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The leading projections forecast Puka Nacua to be a much smaller piece of his team's air attack this week (30.0% projected Target Share) than he has been last year (36.4% in games he has played).
  • When talking about protecting the passer (and the ramifications it has on all air attack metrics), the offensive line of the Rams grades out as the 5th-worst in football last year.
  • The Texans pass defense has surrendered the lowest Adjusted Completion% in the NFL (58.3%) vs. wideouts last year (58.3%).
  • The Houston Texans pass defense has exhibited strong efficiency vs. wide receivers last year, conceding 7.54 adjusted yards-per-target to the position: the 3rd-fewest in the league.
  • When it comes to cornerbacks in defending receivers, Houston's unit has been excellent last year, grading out as the 2nd-best in the NFL.
