Houston Texans vs. Atlanta Falcons Player Prop Picks

In my Texans vs Falcons Prediction, Pick, Odds I picked the Texans +2.5. This is my pick primarily due to the Texans being on a hot streak offensively. C.J. Stroud has been on fire, along with Nico Collins and Nathaniel Dell. I expect the Texans’ offense to keep rolling, even against a tough Falcons pass defense. Read my player prop picks for this matchup below.

Texans Vs. Falcons Player Prop Picks

C.J. Stroud Over Passing Yards (Waiting for odds to be released)

Despite being a rookie, Stroud has proven to be a prolific passer so far this season. I was concerned the pass rush from the Steelers in their week 4 matchup would limit his production, I was wrong. Stroud still threw for 306 yards, 3 TDs, and 0 INTs. Stroud is also averaging 303 YPG. Very very impressive. 

The Falcons allowed Jared Goff in their week 3 matchup to throw for 243 yards, 1 TD, and 1 INT. Trevor Lawrence against the Falcons in week 4 threw for 207 yards, and 1 TD.  I expect Stroud to have at least 275 yards against the Falcons, depending on the odds when released, my bet is to take the over on Stroud’s passing yards.

Bijan Robinson Over Rushing Yards (Waiting for odds to be released)

Even when the Falcons are struggling offensively (which is often) Bijan Robinson is racking up yards. Surprisingly, Robinson has not found the end zone yet running the ball but is always a threat to break a run for a TD at any point on the field. Robinson is averaging 79.5 rushing YPG. He is facing the 19th ranked rushing defense in week 5, the Texans are allowing an average of 117 YPG on the ground. I expect Robinson to rush for at least 85 to 90 yards this game and also be heavily involved in the passing game. Robinson is essentially the Falcons’ entire offense at this point. I expect this trend to continue.

Nico Collins Over Receiving Yards (Waiting for odds to be released)

The Falcons may be able to limit some of the production between Stroud and Nico Collins. I expect this factor to be minimal. The Falcons are ranked 3rd in passing defense, allowing an average of 187 YPG. With this in consideration, I expect a small dip in Nico Collins production but not much. If his projected yards are anywhere around 80-85 YPG, I would take the over on receiving yards. Collins averages 20 yards per reception and 107 YPG, he is a big play threat and all it takes is one busted coverage for Collins to earn most of his yards this game.
