Las Vegas Raiders at Kansas City Chiefs

  • Leg 1: Under 40.5 Total Points (-110)
  • Leg 2: Rashee Rice Over 6.5 Receptions (-130)
  • Leg 3: Aiden O’Connell Under 203.5 Passing Yards  (-115)

The Chiefs are not looking like defending champions, and they’re coming, losing three of their last five and are currently the third seed in the AFC. While the defense looks great, allowing the third-fewest points and fourth-fewest total yards, but the offense has not been the same, especially the passing offense. The Raiders haven’t been able to keep up the initial momentum after Antonio Pierce took over, and they’ve lost three of their last four. Their defense has also been excellent this year, allowing the 11th-fewest points and passing yards. The weather is calling for rain, so the ground game could be a major factor, so expect a lower score.

The Chiefs receiver problems have been well documented, but there has been one bright side. Rice has become a dependable and Mahomes’ favorite option and has 32 catches on 38 targets for 334 yards and three touchdowns in the last four games.  A lot of Kansas City receivers are out for this game, so Rice’s target share will be heavy. 

Aiden O’Connell is coming off the best game of his career by throwing 248 yards and four touchdowns against the Chargers. That’s the same number he had against the Chiefs, but that game was at home, and he gets the tougher environment of Arrowhead Stadium. The forecast also calls for rain throughout the day so that the weather conditions could play a factor.

Total Parlay: +531

New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles

  • Leg 1: Over 43.5 Total Points (-112)
  • Leg 2: Devonta Smith Over 53.5 Receiving Yards (-115)
  • Leg 3: Tommy DeVito Over 185.5 Passing Yards  (-115)

The Cutlets might not have been crisp enough last week for Tommy DeVito as he and the Giants struggled against the Saints. This week, they have another tough matchup against their divisional foes that will be hungry for a win, so you wonder if the spark has run out. The Eagles cannot continue to lose. They’ve dropped three straight, and although they have clinched a playoff spot, home field is not a guarantee right now. The defense has struggled all year, especially the secondary, but the offense has had some lackluster lately, especially Jalen Hurts, who hasn’t thrown a touchdown in two games and had two picks last week. The Eagles have had the Giants number recently, especially in Philly. They pull off the win, but there’s no confidence in almost by two touchdowns. The Giants might be able to exploit this defense enough to push this over.

The way to get to the Eagles’ defense is by exploiting their secondary. They’ve been one of the worst pass defenses this season by allowing the most completions and the sixth-most passing yards. DeVito hit this prop twice against the Commanders and Patriots. Facing a struggling secondary that has some injuries, he will get over this.

Hurts has been getting Smith more involved over the last few weeks and has five straight games with over five catches after not achieving that in back-to-back games this year. The Giants’ secondary has been shaky all year, and after facing some tough defenses recently, this could be good for the Eagles offense, especially Smith, who could get favorable targets if they concentrate on A.J. Brown.

Total Parlay: +562

Baltimore Ravens at San Francisco 49ers

  • Leg 1: 49ers -6 (-108)
  • Leg 2: Deebo Samuel Over 59.5 Receiving Yards (-115)
  • Leg 3: Isaiah Likely Over 38.5 Receiving Yards  (-125)

This is the game of the weekend, as we could see a Super Bowl preview. Both teams have very good winning streaks, and they’ve been able to easily beat their opponents. The Ravens struggled against the rush recently, allowing over 120 rushing yards in four of their last seven, and we saw what Christian McCaffrey did last week is the matchup proof, and he will have the ball in his hands a lot. So will Lamar Jackson, who is playing near his MVP-caliber level; he’s 22 passing yards away from matching his career-high, his 66.3 competition percentage is best, and the 7.7 yards per attempt is his best since the 2019 MVP season. Both these teams have ways to beat you, but there’s a reason the 49ers are a 5.5 favorite. They put that losing streak in the rear-view mirror; the team is healthy at the right time, and they’ve been able to win on both sides of the ball. They will prove why they should be the Super Bowl favorite.

Deebo had a down 2022 that was riddled with injuries. Especially recently, he looks healthy and has been scorching hot; he’s scored in three straight, accumulating seven touchdowns in that time. The speed is there again with 16.1 yards per catch, and he can certainly break one off.

With Mark Andrews going down, Isaiah likely has come in and been a dependable option with 193 receiving yards and two touchdowns in his last three games. That should continue tonight against the 49ers, who have been average against the tight end by allowing the ninth most catches and 8.8 yards per catch. He’s gone over this number easily since becoming the TE1.

Total Parlay: +548
