Best Super Bowl Underdog Fantasy Picks

Jerick McKinnon (RB – KC): UNDER 22.5 rushing yards

Since Week 12, the Eagles defense ranks 12th in run defense DVOA, allowing the 7th-fewest rushing yards per game to RBs (77) at 4.5 yards per carry.
Over the same span, no single RB has rushed for more than 65.5 rushing yards (not-named Christian McCaffrey).
Jerick McKinnon has rushed for OVER 23 rushing yards just twice since Week 14 (seven games played).
In his last five games played, he has yet to eclipse more than 25 rushing yards in any contest.
Isiah Pacheco has out-carried him with 61 rushing attempts (12.2 carries per game) vs. 26 rushing attempts (5.2 carries per game).
McKinnon has not rushed for more than 25 yards this season in any game in that he has seen fewer than eight carries.
Pacheco has rushed for over 58 rushing yards in nine of his last 11 games since becoming a focal point of the Chiefs’ rushing attack in Week 10.
Pair the McKinnon under with the OVER on Pacheco’s 49.5 rushing yards.

Kenneth Gainwell (RB – PHI): OVER 11.5 receiving yards

The Chiefs have bled fantasy points to RBs in the passing game, allowing the most receptions to the position per game (six), third-most targets, and third-most receiving yards (46.9) this season.
Samaje Perine and Joe Mixon combined for 6 receptions, 7 targets, and 19 receiving yards in the AFC Championship Game versus the Chiefs. Both RBs caught 3 passes.
Since Week 15, Miles Sanders has run fewer routes (30% route participation) than Kenneth Gainwell and has been out-targeted 14-to-4.
Last week Gainwell earned three targets while running a route on 41% of dropbacks compared to Sanders’ 30%.
Bet the over on Gainwell’s receiving usage against a defense that ranks No. 28th in DVOA versus RBs in the passing game, as he is clearly the preferred pass-catching back in the Eagles’ offense.
In Gainwell’s last five games, he has over 11.5 receiving yards in three contests (60% hit rate).
For four straight games, Sanders has played 40% of the snaps after never playing fewer than 50% of the snaps from Weeks 1-16.
Sanders has gone under 4.5 receiving yards in five of his last six games played, making his receiving prop (O/U at 4.5 receiving yards) under the perfect parlay to go alongside Gainwell’s over.
