Falcons vs. Colts

Right now, Michael Pittman’s receiving yards prop is set at 70.5 yards (-110/-110).
The public has bet the UNDER down to 70.5 (-110) after it opened @ 73.5 (-110).

Pros

  • The projections expect the Colts to be the 5th-most pass-heavy offense among all teams this week with a 61.2% pass rate, given their underlying traits and matchup dynamics.
  • The predictive model expects the Colts to run the 2nd-most total plays among all teams this week with 68.7 plays, based on their underlying strategic approach and game dynamics.
  • The 10th-highest number of plays in the NFL have been called by the Indianapolis Colts this year (a massive 60.3 per game on average).
  • This game will be played in a dome—which means no wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and better passing effectiveness.
  • In this game, Michael Pittman is predicted by the model to slot into the 100th percentile among wideouts with 11.3 targets.
Cons

  • Opposing quarterbacks teams have been hesitant to lean on the pass against the Falcons, averaging the 10th-fewest attempts in the league (a mere 34.6 per game) this year.
  • This year, the stout Atlanta Falcons defense has given up a mere 124.0 adjusted receiving yards per game to opposing wide receivers: the 5th-fewest in football.
  • This year, the strong Falcons defense has surrendered a mere 61.3% Adjusted Completion Rate vs. opposing wideouts: the 6th-lowest rate in the league.
