If you are into NFL prop betting, now is the best time of the year. All of the categories are up for betting, and since everyone starts at zero you can make a case for several players.

When it comes to who will finish the season with the most rushing yards, Adrian Peterson is the heavy favorite at +200, but who else is a solid bet if Peterson falters?

Next in line is Michael Turner of the Atlanta Falcons, listed at +550.

Turner ranked second in the NFL with 376 carries for 1,699 yards last year and set a franchise record with 17 touchdowns rushing as the Falcons emerged as one of the league's most surprising teams. Atlanta went 11-5 and made the playoffs.

Despite all those carries, Turner insists he wasn't too beat up at the end of the season. The Falcons aren't likely to cut back much, if any, on his workload.

    just as he said, "I think I've gotten use to this Atlanta heat. "I'm not suffering like I was last year." Well as long as he's proud of himself.
