Player Props – Week 2

Cowboys vs. Bengals

Right now, Dalton Schultz’s receiving yards prop is set at 37.5 yards (-118/-112).
The public has bet up the UNDER down to 37.5 (-112) after it opened @ 41.5 (-120).

Pros

  • The Dallas Cowboys will be forced to use backup quarterback Cooper Rush this week, which generally means fewer pass attempts and more rushes.
  • THE BLITZ projects the Dallas Cowboys as the 7th-most pass-heavy offense on the slate this week with a 63.0% pass rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • The Dallas Cowboys have run the 2nd-most plays in football since the start of last season, totaling a monstrous 66.4 plays per game.
  • This game will be played in a dome—which means zero wind, higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and better passing efficiency.
Cons

  • THE BLITZ projects the Cowboys to call the 2nd-least offensive plays on the slate this week with 61.5 plays, given their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
  • The Dallas Cowboys have gone up against a stacked the box on a measly 13.3% of their plays since the start of last season, 8th-least in the NFL. Positioning an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
  • The Dallas Cowboys have incorporated play action on just 23.6% of their passing plays since the start of last season (9th-least in the NFL), which ultimately hampers passing efficiency.
