The Chiefs are favored to complete the three-peat. However, the game’s spread is a slight 1.5 points. Kansas City will likely need to play their brand of football to wrap up their third straight Super Bowl win, which means putting the ball in the hands of Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes handling the ball will reduce the opportunities on the ground for the running backs and increase the chances for Kansas City’s pass-catching options.
Thus, one of the following suggested higher/lower pick’em plays is a “lower” for one of Kansas City’s running backs. Another is a “higher” for Mahomes’ top pass-catching weapon. Sandwiched between those props is another “lower” for an oft-ignored player in the passing game.
