Player Props – Week 8

Falcons vs. Panthers

Right now, D’Onta Foreman’s rushing yards prop is set at 66.5 yards (-105/-125).
The public has bet the UNDER down to 66.5 (-125) after it opened @ 72.5 (-114).

Pros

  • THE BLITZ projects the Carolina Panthers as the 7th-most run-centric team in the NFL (context-neutralized) at the present time with a 41.4% run rate.
  • THE BLITZ projects D’Onta Foreman to notch 15.9 carries in this contest, on average, ranking him in the 84th percentile among RBs.
  • THE BLITZ projects D’Onta Foreman to be a more important option in his team’s running game this week (63.3% projected Carry Share) than he has been this year (15.5% in games he has played).
  • D’Onta Foreman’s rushing effectiveness has gotten a boost this year, averaging 5.04 yards-per-carry vs just 4.21 mark last year.
  • The Atlanta Falcons have stacked the box against opponents on just 11.5% of their plays since the start of last season, 6th-least in the NFL. Choosing not to position an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves pass defense at the expense of run-stopping.
Cons

  • The Carolina Panthers will be starting backup QB PJ Walker in this contest, which usually means fewer pass attempts and more rushes.
  • The Panthers are a 4.5-point underdog this week, indicating a passing game script.
  • THE BLITZ projects the Panthers to run the 3rd-least plays on offense among all teams this week with 61.3 plays, given their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
  • The Carolina Panthers have run the least plays in the league this year, averaging just 51.6 plays per game.
  • This game will be played in a dome—meaning zero wind, higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.
