LeGarrette Blount - Total Rushing Attempts: UNDER 8.5 (-115)

The Eagles are 4.5-point underdogs this weekend. Eagles running back LeGarrette Blount has seen his usage dip in games where they were underdogs.



Per the Rotoviz Game Splits App, Blount has averaged 9.2 carries per game over five games in this situation. However, in the two games where the Eagles were underdogs of three or more points, Blount averaged just seven rushing attempts. Not only has he been used less as an underdog, his usage takes a serious hit when the Eagles lose.



In their three losses, Blount has averaged just 5.67 carries per game. He's rarely used in the passing game, so he does not see the field when Philly is playing from behind. If you believe the Patriots will win, then Blount getting fewer than 8.5 carries makes sense.
