In the Division Round, A.J. Brown of the Tennessee Titans had an impressive game with 142 receiving yards against the Cincinnati secondary. However, the Bengals have done a good job of limiting other opponents from reaching the triple-digit mark in receiving yards. Overall, Cincinnati has allowed an average of 243.7 passing yards per game during the postseason.

Despite Kupp’s impressive offensive performance last season, if his receiving yards continue to increase, there will likely be bettors who underestimate his capabilities. It is possible that some are already anticipating a specific number to place their bets against him.

Adam Pullen, the Assistant Director of Trading at Caesars Underscoreg, also mentioned that…

“It’s unusual to see a prop exceeding one hundred, but he has set the bar. I believe his player props will attract significant attention, second only to the quarterbacks. With the overs expected to be a popular choice among the public, the sharp bettors will bide their time and wait for the odds to increase before joining in.”

Odell Beckham Receiving Yards 

After a strong performance in the NFC Championship game with over 100 receiving yards, Beckham is a favorite target among bettors. The betting line for his receiving yardage is set at 63.5, with the over at +120 and the under at -150. The majority of bets and money are on the over, with 94% of tickets and 95% of dollars wagered. Similarly, the line for his receptions is set at 5.5, with 96% of tickets and 85% of dollars on the over.

Pullen also gave background information on Beckham:

At the beginning, he wasn’t heavily involved with the Rams, but over time, his production has risen. While he may not be Kupp, he has become the second choice. He has been rewarded for his receptions and receiving yards, as well as being a popular pick for the first touchdown scorer. In the first few playoff games, he was one of the most frequently chosen players for first touchdown scorer as well.

Pullen pointed out that since joining the team in Week 10, Beckham’s role in the Los Angeles passing game has grown significantly, especially in the last two weeks. The experienced player has hauled in 15 receptions on 19 targets for 182 yards, contributing to the Rams’ journey to the Super Bowl.

Cam Akers Rushing Yards

Despite receiving a majority of bets, bettors are not as optimistic about Akers. The running back’s rushing yards total has increased from 58.5 to 63.5, with 65% of tickets and 68% of the handle favoring the under. Additionally, the receptions total of 2.5 has seen 94% of the money on the under, with the over receiving 85% of the total number of tickets.

There is also a lot of information to delve into here.

Akers is currently dealing with a shoulder injury and his rushing performance has been subpar, averaging only 2.6 yards per carry in the last two games. Additionally, he fumbled twice in the Divisional Round game against Tampa Bay.

Furthermore, there is a possibility that third-year running back Darnell Henderson Jr., who is recovering from a knee injury, will be able to play on Sunday. This could impact Akers’ playing time and number of rushing attempts. In addition, veteran running back Sony Michel has also been underperforming in the postseason with only 78 yards on 24 carries (an average of 3.3 yards per carry) to take into account.

Please be aware that in the past, head coach Sean McVay has typically relied heavily on his top running back and has not used a committee approach. Assuming Akers is in good health, he is likely to receive a significant workload against Cincinnati this Sunday.
