Derek Henry’s over under, I’m hitting the over.
I, I don’t think that’s high enough.
I think he’s in triple digits in this game wherever it’s at.
I’m taking the over.
This is a terrible run defense.
It’s a short week.
They, it’s a divisional opponent, so they do have reps against it.
It’s not very original, but it’s one that I’m looking at completely because I just think the matchup makes sense and the player makes sense.
So, starting there also on the other end, I don’t think Chase Brown gets like he’ll get his touches, but he’s not gonna pop any.
This Ravens defense has a lot of explosive runs.
So actually I was gonna look at under.
Chase rushing is my two bets.
Ok. Yep.
All right.
The 58.5 yard that’s I’m going under there.
Not that I don’t think he’ll be efficient, but I think it’s more of like a Le Cary’s 48 yards kind of game where none of them really pop all go for four or five.
That’s the design of the Bengals offense.
That’s how I kind of picture it going against this Ravens defense.
We’re definitely doing Henry over 93.5.
We’re definitely doing Chase Brown under 58.5 rush yards.
We are doing Rashad Bayman over 29.5 receiving yards and Deonte Johnson under 20 a half receiving yards at plus money.
Baby.
Plus money.
Ok. Kind of like your bang your borough completion one because a, a couple of things they are trying to pepper chase underneath right now.
That’s been the case over the last two games without T Higgins.
You mentioned just rolling over the game plan from last week regardless of the borough stuff.
That has been the case.
Also, if you look at the Baltimore defense, they get gassed by everything, but they are fourth in terms of yards allowed to slot receivers so far this year, you know, they wanna get chase out of the slot, you know, that gaze and look at the game plan last week.
It ended up being Mike Kosei has taken 61.7 or 61.4% snaps from the slot the last two weeks.
We’ve been trying to, yeah, this is definitely what they want to do, but it’s where they’re at right now and it’s what they gotta do.
And again, he, with all of that playing time, he has gotten a, he’s gotten a first down on 22.4 uh 22.5% of his routes like that.
That’s beefy for old, old old boy, Mike Gy here Burrow completion one.
I’m like, actually, yeah, I like that one a lot.
So that, that’s what I’m gonna go with there rather than the gy stuff.
So, yeah.
Yeah, I’m staying away from that.
That’s, that’s what’s hard, it’s just hard to parse, even if I think Burl will be able to pepper him.
