Player Props – Week 9

Cardinals vs. Seahawks

Right now, Kenneth Walker III’s rushing yards prop is set at 74.5 yards (-110/-110).
The public has bet the OVER up to 74.5 (-110) after it opened @ 71.5 (-115).

Pros

  • THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 2nd-highest volume of plays run on the slate this week at 132.1 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
  • The Arizona Cardinals defense has had the 8th-worst efficiency against opposing rushing attacks this year, giving up 5.05 yards-per-carry.
  • The Seattle Seahawks have been faced with a stacked the box on a mere 11.5% of their plays since the start of last season, 4th-least in the NFL. Bringing an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
  • The Seattle Seahawks have gone no-huddle on 15.5% of their plays outside the two-minute warning since the start of last season (4th-most in the NFL). This quickens the pace, leading to more volume and stat-padding.
Cons

  • The Seattle Seahawks have called the 4th-least plays in the league this year, totaling a measly 53.9 plays per game.
  • The weatherman calls for 4-mph wind in this game. Low wind generally means higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and increased passing effectiveness.
  • The Seattle Seahawks offensive line ranks as the 6th-worst in the league this year at opening holes for rushers.
  • The Arizona Cardinals safeties profile as the best unit in the NFL this year in regard to defending the run.
  • The Seattle Seahawks have gone for it on 4th down a measly 8.7% of the time since the start of last season (least in the league), which generally means less offensive volume, less TD potential, and lower offensive metrics across the board.
