Houston Texans vs. Philadelphia Eagles Prediction
The haters are going to say that Miles Sanders has only done this twice this season. What can I say? Those idiots are right. They're obviously leaving a few things out but he has only gone 90+ twice this season. The thing about Sanders is he's getting carries which is the only real thing we care about. You can't get yards if you don't have the ball. That's just how rushing yards work. But the idea that we've seen him get at least 15 carries in five of seven games this season should make us feel good.
Getting carries is only half the battle as you have to get yards too and Sanders is doing that. The man is averaging almost five yards per attempt. What's even better is the fact that he's doing it against all comers. He's no bully. He'll run on anyone. Like the day he went for 134 yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Those guys rank fourth in the NFL in opponent yards per attempt. Miles didn't care. He gashed them anyway. Like a boss.
Opponent won't be an issue tonight though as the Eagles will be on the road visiting the Houston Texans. So far this season, only one team in the NFL is worse against the run on a per-carry basis than the Texans. They're terrible. They just gave up 200+ to Derrick Henry last week but that wasn't their first time getting smoked. Josh Jacobs went for 143 yards against them the week before. Khalil Herbert dropped 157 on them earlier in the year. I think since it's a Thursday game, we'll see a run-heavy approach from Philadelphia which means Sanders goes to the moon.
