Chiefs vs. Ravens Conference Championship Round Prop Bet Picks
Lamar Jackson o64.5 rushing yards
Kansas City allowed the 10th-most rushing yards to quarterbacks in the regular season. Jackson’s rushing equity has been ramped up in the playoffs. In five career playoff games, he has surpassed 54 rushing yards four times while posting at least 100 rushing yards three times.
Gus Edwards o41.5 rushing yards
Baltimore should lean on their ground game this week. Edwards should find running room against a run defense that, since Week 13, has allowed the 10th-highest explosive run rate, the lowest stuff rate, and the 12th-highest success rate to gap runs (Edwards 58.2% gap). This line opened at 39.5, which is where I bet it, but it’s still actionable here. If it continues to get steamed up, I would lay off. I would bet the over until it inches up closer to 42.5.
Travis Kelce o61.5 receiving yards
Last week, Kelce turned in a vintage performance with a 26.1% target share, a 40.9% air-yard share, 3.75 YPRR, and a 33.3% first-read share. Look for him to push Rice for the team lead in targets this week. Since Week 17, Baltimore has utilized Cover 3 and Cover 6 on 62.4% of their defensive snaps. Since Week 12, against those coverage types, Kelce has had a 26% TPRR, 2.68 YPRR, and a 25.8% first-read share. In Weeks 10-18, Baltimore allowed the fourth-most receiving yards per game to tight ends.
