Jalen Hurts OVER 47.5 Rushing Yards (-125)

Hurts has gone over this number in five games this season and has cleared 60 yards on the ground the past three.

This number continues to be priced too low with Hurts' ability to escape the pocket and pick up yards with his legs instead of pushing the ball downfield. He'll also have a favorable matchup against a Broncos defense that is outside the top 20 in EPA per rush.

I like Hurts to continue his recent play and be a factor in the run game.

Teddy Bridgewater UNDER 252.5 Passing Yards (-115)

Simply put, this number is way too high. Bridgewater hasn't cleared this total in three straight games and will be under a collapsing pocket often on Sunday without three starting offensive lineman from earlier in the year.

With limited time to throw, I don't envision a big passing effort from Bridgewater, the Broncos are better off looking to establish the run with their two-headed monster of Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams and win the field position battle against a stout Eagles defense.

Jordan Howard UNDER 40.5 Rushing Yards (-115)

Howard has seen his usage go up in his return to Philly and the injury to Miles Sanders, but he's far from the lead back, playing just 44% of snaps last week against the Chargers.

With Boston Scott and Kenneth Gainwell in the mix, there is going to be limited opportunities for Howard to go over this total. Volume is the key question here, and it's enough of a concern for me to go under on Howard's rushing yard prop on Sunday.
