Patrick Mahomes is unreal as an away favorite — in fact, he's undefeated over a lengthy sample size.

Mahomes is 19-0 straight up as a road favorite of 5.5 points or more. That stat is courtesy of my colleague Evan Abrams.

The Chiefs are 8-point favorites over the Jets on Sunday Night Football.

In terms of our prediction on the matter, our Chris Raybon has a take on the total based on historical data.

The best case for betting the Chiefs lies not with Patrick Mahomes or Travis Kelce or even Taylor Swift, but with their improved defense.

The Chiefs have allowed only three defensive touchdowns all season. Their defense is fifth in Expected Points Added per Play allowed (-0.167) and fourth in success rate allowed (39.1%).

Against the pass, they're fourth in EPA per play (-0.263) and third in success rate (39.3%). Jets quarterback Zach Wilson is last among 34 qualified quarterbacks in EPA per play (-0.279) and 33rd in success rate (35.3%).
