Steelers vs. Ravens Player Prop
Edwards stands out as one of the NFL’s perennially underrated running backs. In just four games this season, he’s amassed 193 yards and a touchdown from 44 carries. Impressively, he boasts an average of 5.1 yards per carry over his entire career.
Looking at his track record, Edwards has received 10 or more carries in 26 games throughout his career. Out of these, he’s surpassed 44 rushing yards in 23 games. There was a single instance where he fell just short, securing 42 yards from 10 carries. On average, he garners 71.8 yards from 14.5 carries each game.
This week, Edwards is poised for a favorable matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have been particularly vulnerable against the run. They’ve conceded an average of 126.3 rushing yards per game to opposing running backs, making them the second-most generous in this regard. Additionally, the Steelers rank sixth in the league in terms of the number of carries they allow per game to running backs, with an average of 26.
While there might be some reservations given that Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell are practicing this week, I anticipate Edwards maintaining his usual role. I’m confident he’ll receive 10 or more carries in the upcoming game.
The Prop: Gus Edwards over 43.5 rushing yards | -110 at Bet365
