Texans vs. Broncos Player Props
In this week 13 matchup, Dameon Pierce will be facing the Broncos with a rushing yards prop of 24.5. Betting on the over yields a payout of -118, while the under pays at -113.
The implied odds for the over are 54%. Dameon Pierce is currently 25th among running backs in rushing attempts this season, accumulating 341 yards so far. As he enters this week’s game, his average yards per carry stands at 3. Pierce’s prop of 24.5 yards has a lot value on the over. I see him capitalizing on his matchup against the NFL’s 32nd-ranked defense in rushing yards allowed.
- The Prop: Dameon Pierce Over 24.5 Rushing Yards (-118)
Texans VS. Broncos Predictions
On the point spread, the lines have remained steady, with the Texans opening as 3.0-point favorites at home.
Defensively, Denver looked good in their most recent game vs. Cleveland. For this week’s best bet, I like Denver to cover with the line currently sitting at +3.
