Best Chiefs Super Bowl prop bets
Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Friday at 1:15 p.m. ET.
TE Travis Kelce ANYTIME TD (-125) and TO SCORE 2+ TDs (+450)
Kelce is already a future Hall of Famer because of his regular season numbers, but his playoff work will certainly help his case as well. Kelce ranks 2nd all-time in playoff receptions (127), receiving yards (1,467) and receiving TDs (15, tied with TE Rob Gronkowski), trailing Hall of Fame WR Jerry Rice in all 3 categories.
Simply put, Kelce is a TD machine in the postseason. He has 15 TDs in 17 career playoff games, with at least 1 TD in 8 of his last 9 playoff matchups. He has 6 TDs in his last 5 playoff games and has 3 so far in the 2022-23 postseason. It’s almost a guarantee that Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes will look Kelce’s way in the red zone during the Super Bowl.
The Kelce ANYTIME TD (-125) is a no-brainer for this matchup, and the Kelce TO SCORE 2+ TDs (+450) is also an intriguing play. Kelce had 2 TDs against the Jaguars in the Divisional round, and has earned 2+ TDs in 2 other playoff games in his career (both with Mahomes at QB).

TE Travis Kelce OVER 77.5 RECEIVING YARDS: (-120)
Continuing the Kelce love, the man knows how to rack up yardage in the postseason as well. Over the past 3 postseasons, Kelce averages 104.4 receiving yards per game across 8 games overall. His game-low during that span was 78 against the Bengals in this year’s AFC Championship Game.
The Eagles allowed an average of 100.2 yards per game against players in the slot in 2022 (including postseason), which is where Kelce has earned 64.5% of his yards this year. Hitting 80 yards should be no problem for the big man.
RB Isiah Pacheco OVER 48.5 RUSHING YARDS (-115)
Since Week 10, the 7th-round rookie Pacheco has averaged 68.5 rushing yards per game. He’s gone Under 48.5 just twice during that 11-game span. The Eagles have allowed 88.3 rushing yards per game to RBs this year (including postseason). Pacheco is the Chiefs’ lead back and will receive the majority of carries. Hitting 50 shouldn’t be much of an issue for the young back.
DE Frank Clark OVER 0.5 SACKS (+110)
Speaking of players who dominate in the playoffs, Clark is surprisingly one of the best pass rushers in NFL playoff history (or at least since 1982 when sacks became official). Clark is 3rd in postseason sacks with 13.5, just a few short of LB Willie McGinest’s record of 16.
10.5 of those sacks have come with the Chiefs. Clark earned 5 in 2019-20, 3 in 2021-22, and has earned 2.5 so far in 2022-23. He has at least 1 sack in each postseason game this year.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts has been sacked 40 times this year (roughly 2.4 times per game). With Clark on the edge and Hurts likely to scramble often, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Clark earn another playoff sack as he inches closer to the all-time postseason record.

OVER 2.5 TOTAL SACKS by Chiefs (-115)
Piggybacking on the last stat, the Chiefs have 62 total sacks in 19 games, or roughly 3.3 per game. They’ve hit Over 2.5 total sacks in 11 of 19 games this year. With Hurts getting sacked often and Eagles RT Lane Johnson coming into this game with an injury, it seems like a good shot that the blitz-happy Chiefs (led by blitz-happy DC Steve Spagnuolo) will get to the Eagles QB a few times.
