Rams Vs Seahawks Prop Pick: Kupp Over 85.5 Receiving Yards
✅ With the quarterback change from Jared Goff to Matthew Stafford, the Rams passing game is working differently in 2021. Cooper Kupp is the focal point of the passing game, and he is walking into the softest matchup yet in 2021. Through four games, Kupp has seen 46 targets, which he has converted to 30 catches for 431 yards and five touchdowns. He has seen double digit target opportunity in every game thus far, and has recorded at least 96 receiving yards in three of four games.
✅ The Seahawks defense allows big yardage to essentially every opponent, and the Rams will be no different. Wide receivers in particular have been a problem for the Seahawks over the last three weeks. In those three games, they have allowed top wide receiving lines of:
- Julio Jones – 6/128/0 on 8 targets
- Justin Jefferson – 9/118/1 on 11 targets
- Deebo Samuel – 8/156/2 on 12 targets
The list speaks for itself, and Kupp may have a better role, skill set and situation than every player on that list. It would legitimately be an upset if Kupp did not surpass the century mark in this matchup, and we have have a favorable line to attack.
✅ Cooper Kupp may not be the only player to place bets on for player props in this game. Chris Carson has seen a reduced role, is on a short week and did not practice on Tuesday. He is truly questionable for this game, yet there are prop lines offered on him. His prop lines are currently:
- 52.5 rushing yards
- 13.5 receiving yards
- 2.5 receptions
This is a player that will once again have a smaller role due to the injury, or not play at all. While all of the props are offering value on the under side, the one that is glaring is under 2.5 receptions. Carson saw his top target game in Week 1, accumulating 3 targets. In the three games since, he has been targeted just 3 times total. If he plays his limited role once again, the primary focus for Carson is running the football, and the under 2.5 receptions play is a screaming value.
