Vikings‘ J.J. โMcCarthy Poisedโ to Exceed Rushingโค Yardage โขProp Againstโ Ravens
Minnesota Vikingsโค quarterbackโฃ J.J. McCarthy presents a compelling player prop prospect in week 10, with projections indicating he could surpass his rushing yardageโข total against the Baltimore Ravens. Despite limited regular-seasonโค data, analysis of McCarthy’s college adnโ earlyโ NFL performance suggests a potential for notable yardage โon the ground.
McCarthy has averaged 20.7 rushing yards per gameโ through his first three regular-season contests, with a median of 25. His season-lowโ of 12 rushing โขyards last week was influenced by losing โfour yards while kneeling to end the game. Proโฃ Football Focus credited โMcCarthyโข with 894 rushing yards at โ6.0 โฃyards perโ carry on 149 career rush attempts during his time with the Michigan Wolverines. He also gained eightโ rushing yards on his only attempt in one preseason โฃgameโข this year.
The Vikings are currently 4.0-point underdogs against the Ravens.This โgame script potentially favors McCarthy utilizing hisโข rushingโ ability, particularly if he avoids victory formationโ scenarios.โ
Baltimore’s defense โขhas yielded varyingโฃ rushing yardage to opposing quarterbacks. Immobile pocket passers like โJoe Flacco, Jared Goff, andโ Matthew Stafford were held to under 18.5 rushing yards. however, more mobile quarterbacks – Josh Allen (30 yards), Patrick Mahomes, Caleb Williams (24 yards), and C.J. Stroud (30 yards) – โฃall exceeded that mark against the Ravens. McCarthy’s playing style aligns more closely โwith those quarterbacks โwho successfully โขrushed for โover 18.5 โyards againstโฃ Baltimore.
