    Over or Under Arian Foster 98.5 rushing yards?

    I want to unload on the over, got a feeling he busts his nut to the tune of a buck twenty one or so.

    Bengals give up 104 rushing yards a game, Foster is their rushing game, he has rushed for over 100 against better defenses this year, and does average a tad under 100 per game.

    I like the over 98.5, I don't see the Texans going to the air early, I think they play conservative for a while and give to their all world running back.

    Opinions?

    Not a smart play here, Cincy has a stout D and they will force Houston to throw the ball.

    Not true. The Bengals defense strength is pass defense, no so much their run defense. Houston averages 4.5 yards per carry and the Bengals defense gives up 4.1 yards per rush attempt. But the fact that Foster and Tate could potentially share the carries (more like 70% to 30% for Tate) it might be tough a bit of sweat to get the Over 98.5. Maybe when the Bengals see Foster in the back field they'll be expecting the run more rather than when Tate is in the backfield. Which could lead to Tate breaking out for the big rush gains. Who knows, just my 2 cents.

    Good luck though

    I like it....bengals will have to keep a deep safety on johnsons side..texans will give foster extra carries as they can ride him and not worry about tiring him out. He had a week off last week.

    I like the play. The Bengals will want the Texans to pass the ball, but with Andre back they won't be able to sell out to stop the run. Foster should get around 25 touches, maybe more if the Texans get a lead. I'm thinking around the 110-120 yard range too.

    if you believe in steam....this prop starting off at 2 books at 103 and 102 respectively and first was juiced then has gone done to 98.5 to essentially equal odds. for whatever that is worth

    This coming from a Texans fan...

    Under. Bengals want Yates to win the game, plus Tate will take touched.

    Foster finding some space, that prop bet looking good early.
