NBC Sports Bet Best Bets
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes Najee Harris to find the end zone for Pittsburgh against the Colts
“Najee Harris has received a heavy workload of 20, 17, and 18 rushing attempts through three games, in addition to seven total receptions. However, none of those 62 touches have resulted in a touchdown, but that will change soon.
The Colts did hold Chicago to 63 rushing yards on 28 carries, but I think Indy will revert back to its 237 rushing yards allowed per game through the first two weeks. Josh Jacobs had 151 rushing yards on 32 attempts, and Joe Mixon posted 159 rushing yards on 30 carries and one touchdown over Weeks 1 and 2 versus the Colts.”
