Steelers-Colts Anytime Touchdown Bet: Pat Freiermuth
When targeted Freiermuth owns an 80.5 passer rating with 11 yards per reception. Freiermuth is due for some touchdowns, possibly multiple. He ranks fifth in targets, seventh in receptions, and fifth in receiving yards but just 24th in receiving touchdowns with one lonely touchdown. Impressively, Freiermuth is also second in the team in red zone targets with seven owning 18.42% of the target share. Freiermuth has led the Steelers in targets the last two weeks this seems to be stemming from the solidity finally at quarterback, ending the quarterback carousel with Mitchell Trubisky, and the departure of wide receiver Chase Claypool.
Zaire Franklin, Colt’s main coverage linebacker ranks 58th out of 78 linebackers when it comes to covering the middle of the field. The other linebacker EJ Speed has allowed in a 118.8 passer rating placing him firmly among the bottom linebackers in coverage. And lastly, Bobby Okereke allows a 97.3 passer rating when defending the middle of the field.
Bet on Freiermuth to finally be rewarded a primetime touchdown to complement all the dirty work he has put in thus far outside the endzone.
