While the second-year running back failed to find the endzone against the Eagles, he played a huge part in the upset win. He’s being used much more as a receiving back this season, giving him more ways to do damage, and it’s working wonders.
The Chiefs didn’t allow a rushing touchdown last time out, but they did face a fairly depleted Bengals backfield following the departure of Joe Mixon, with Zack Moss heading the charge. Bijan presents a very different challenge, and one that the Chiefs, and any other team this season, will struggle to deal with.
It’s been a quiet start to the season for one of the greatest tight ends of all time. Kelce has just 40 yards through two weeks and now faces a defense that’s allowing the 7th fewest TE yards per game. The Chiefs are rolling and Kelce’s role as a dominant receiving target appears to be diminishing as Father Time begins to count down. He could still break off a big play, but the safer wager until Kelce finds a receiving floor is an anytime TD. Until then, I like backing the under.
I’m all about sleeper value for tonight’s picks. Just like the matchup against Philadelphia, the narrative here is that Cousins is likely going to have to pass the ball a lot. He was 9 yards short of this mark in that matchup, but week 2’s performance was a huge step forward from the opening game woes.
Cousins is heating up and the Falcons are riding a wave of confidence. I like the veteran to push the ball downfield frequently to try and keep pace with Kansas City, and there’s simply more value here than on a Mahomes prop.
It looks like Kirk Cousins has a new favorite target in Ray-Ray McCloud. The zippy wideout has drawn more targets than both Drake London and Darnell Mooney through the opening 2 weeks, amassing 94 yards in that span.
McCloud still figures to be a 3rd-option in this offense, but Cousins is finding plenty of success when targeting him, and comfortable targets will be key against a defense this good.
