Second Quarter Lines

San Francisco 49ers v. Kansas City -0.5 points

Over – Under 16.5 points

It’s weird. It’s like the books understand that the second quarter is when the action really starts. Who knew? It’s like they know how to make money. Well, we are still taking the over in the second quarter for the exact reasons listed before. The teams will settle down. The Chiefs have been an absolute wagon in the second quarter of the playoffs. The Niners offense isn’t too shabby either.

We’ll also take the Chiefs in the second quarter. It’s their normal script. They fall behind a team. We wonder if the Chiefs can come back from a hole they’ve dug for themselves. Patrick Mahomes starts shooting lasers out of his eyes — and arm — and the Chiefs roll to 20 something points. That’s probably not going to happen against a defense as good as the Niners, but 10-14 points seem reasonable.
