NFL Props For Patriots-Colts

Patriots WR Nelson Agholor Over 24.5 Rec Yards

Koerner's Projection: 33

Koerner's projection for Agholor gets a boost against zone, which the Colts play at fifth-highest rate in the NFL. The Patriots receiver has also cleared this number in seven of 13 games this year.

Colts WR Zach Pascal Over 20.5 Rec Yards

Koerner's Projection: 29.8

Bill Belichick is known for scheming against his opponent's best offensive player, so it's possible the Patriots try to take away the Colts' best wide receiver, Michael Pittman.

In addition to more potential targets with the focus on Pittman, another factor working in favor of Pascal's over is that he's done better against man, which the Pats play at the fifth-highest rate in the league.



What Are NFL Player Props?

Playing the "over" or "under" on a quarterback's passing yards, wide receiver's number of receptions, and whether a running back will score a touchdown are all considered player props.
