Broncos running back C.J. Anderson has taken over the lead role in Denver with success, averaging 119.5 yards per game over the last four weeks. Anderson is on the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook’s props board for 83.5 rushing yards and we’re taking the OVER.
Not only has Anderson run well of late, totaling at least 84 rushing yards in three of his last four games, but the Bengals have struggled to stop the run this season, allowing 124.8 yards on the ground per game. Teams still have to respect Peyton Manning and the passing game, so Anderson should have enough running lanes on Monday night to hit the OVER.
Sporting News’ Fantasy Source staff has Anderson ranked as its No. 3 running back for Week 16 and also expect a strong performance. For additional analysis and The Linemakers’ pick, check out Mike Wilkening’s Broncos-Bengals betting preview.
