Breece Hall has rushed for 766 yards this season on 4.6 yards per carry. He'll churn out yards as long as he's not facing a top run defense or the Jets are forced to abandon the run due to game script. On Sunday, Hall and Jets host the Falcons who can't stop the run and will likely be unable to build a big lead. This should be a competitive game with the Jets installed as 2.5-point home underdogs against Atlanta who has lost five of its last six. The Falcons are 28th in the league in success rate against the run while ranking 26th in rushing yards allowed per game (133.1).
Kirk Cousins picked up his first win of the season last week, but he’ll be without Drake London again and is overpriced in the interception market, even against the Jets. He threw two touchdowns and a pick last week while targeting David Sills, Darnell Mooney, Dylan Drummond, and KhaDarel Hodge. That’s a rough group of pass catchers, and it raises his interception risk again this week. Weather could also be an issue with possible rain and double-digit winds, which only helps the INT case. His two-interception prop at +600 is also worth a look. Last year, Cousins threw 16 picks in 14 games — one every 28 attempts.
John Metchie cashed for me last week, and I’m going back to his TD at a price that didn’t adjust enough after hitting +475 for a score in Week 12. Metchie stepped into a passing upgrade with Tyrod Taylor and operated as the WR1, playing 88% of the snaps, running 90% of the routes, and leading all Jets wide receivers with six catches for 65 yards. He also saw a red-zone target and turned it into a 13-yard touchdown. This is a WR1 priced like a TE2, and he’s facing a Falcons defense that is giving up 25 points per game over its last six contests.
