Giants vs. Chiefs NFL Betting Picks + Odds Shopping
Finding the most profitable NFL betting picks has never been easier. The newly updated OddsShopper tool is like the Amazon of sports betting. Simply filter, sort the page and find the NFL best bets within seconds, as seen below.
Patrick Mahomes Over 19.5 Yards Rushing (-115) at DraftKings Sportsbook
Sorting the player props for this game by the expected win percentage brings this prop to the very top. Kansas City’s offensive line and defense have struggled this year, putting extra pressure on Patrick Mahomes to extend plays and pick up yards with his legs rather than throwing the ball away. This has led to some bad mistakes (nine interceptions), along with an uptick in rushing, as he is averaging a career-best 31.3 yards on the ground per game. Mahomes has rushed for at least 26 yards in five straight games and should make it six this week against a vulnerable Giants defense. The OddsShopper Tool gives this prop an 81% chance to hit the over and an expected ROI of 51%. The Player Props Tool projects Mahomes for 34.6 yards rushing tonight.
Darrel Williams Over 58.5 Yards Rushing (-110) at FanDuel Sportsbook
With Clyde Edwards-Helaire still out, Darrel Williams will continue to operate as the lead back for the Chiefs. He has not been as busy as projected since the Chiefs continue to play from behind. Tonight, however, they should play with a lead, which leans to Kansas City running the ball as much as possible. They need to do something to take a bit of pressure off of Mahomes. Running the ball with success also gives the defense more time to rest and make adjustments. In Williams’ one start this season where the Chiefs won, he took 21 carries for 62 yards. The Giants have also allowed 125.6 yards rushing per game. The OddsShopper Tool gives this prop a 69% chance to hit the over and an expected ROI of 30%. The Player Props Tool projects Williams for 75.1 yards rushing.
Daniel Jones Over 20.5 Completions (-128) at BetMGM Sportsbook
This is expected to be a bounce-back game for the Chiefs. The betting odds point to the Giants likely trailing, which means Daniel Jones will likely need to pass to keep up. This line of 20.5 completions is unusually low, considering the projected game script and how poor the Chiefs defense has been. Jones has also completed 22 or more passes in six of his seven games this season. The OddsShopper Tool gives this prop a 68% chance to hit the over and an expected ROI of 16%.
