Zach Wilson

Under 175.5 Passing Yards (-105)

Saying this gives me absolutely no pleasure at all, but Zach Wilson isn’t just bad, he’s so bad that we’ll be talking about him a decade after he’s hung up his cleats.

We are going to ride the Wilson unders for as long as he’s in the league, though, and on Sunday Night Football, his passing yards line is set at 175.5.

He hasn’t surpassed 175.5 passing yards this season, although he did get within six yards of it in Week 2. This is a number he’s hit 10 times in 25 NFL games.

Given that the Chiefs have allowed an average of 189.33 passing yards per game, the fifth-best mark in the NFL, I can’t see Wilson threatening that.

He’s devoid of confidence, struggling to execute the basics, and now he has Trevor Siemian breathing down his neck.

No matter how much Robert Saleh says Wilson is the starter, I wouldn’t be shocked if the BYU product got benched mid-game.

Pick: Zach Wilson Under 175.5 Passing Yards (-105)

Travis Kelce

Anytime TD (-120)

Can we try to mention Travis Kelce without mentioning you know who?

Let’s get into why Kelce will score in this game. First, and most importantly, he’s the best tight end in the NFL and arguably in the discussion of the best players to ever take the field in that position.

Kelce enters this game in great form, having scored in both of the games he's played. He is consistently Patrick Mahomes’ favorite target.

While I try to avoid betting Anytime TDs that are as short at -125, this feels like an instant bet, especially when you consider that the Jets, tied with the Eagles, have allowed more touchdowns to TEs than anybody else this season.

With Kelce’s talent and the opportunity, we should see results.

Pick: Travis Kelce Anytime TD (-120)

Rashee Rice

Over 2.5 Receptions (-105)

Rashee Rice, the Chiefs' second-round pick in this year’s NFL Draft, looked like he might be on to big things after scoring in the season opener. He’s yet to find the end zone since, though he has flashed his potential.

In Week 3 against the Bears, he was second in both receptions and receiving yards — behind Kelce — with five catches for 59 yards. Through three games, he’s been targeted 14 times, catching 10 balls.

The Jets defense is impressive, but with the threat of Kelce, it should mean that Mahomes’ other options, like Rice, get a chance to see some action.

There may be a lot of mouths to feed in the Chiefs offense, but I love -105 odds on Rice to go over 2.5 receptions.

Pick: Rashee Rice Over 2.5 Receptions (-105)
