1. The comeback kids
Both teams are phenomenal. Both teams have talent. But our crystal ball thinks that while Kansas City jumps out to an early lead, the 49ers crawl back to win the game, just like they did against Detroit. We like betting on San Fran to win (at 1.83 odds, a $10 bet turns into $18.30) and if you want to take a flier on our comeback narrative, play a HALF TIME/FULL TIME: KC/SF bet (at 6.00 odds, a $10 bet turns into $60).
2. The Swifties will be happy
Travis Kelce is a touchdown machine. Even though he will draw a ton of attention from a very tough Niners defense, he’s been red hot lately, has Super Bowl experience, and a great quarterback who knows getting him the ball is a good idea. We expect Travis Kelce to score a touchdown (at 1.94 odds, a $10 bet turns into $19.40), and he’s our best bet to score the first TD of the game (at 6.5 odds, a $10 bet turns into $65).
3. A Purdy passing game
We like this game to feature a lot of points, and with the Kansas City defense keying in on stopping SF star Christian McCaffrey, we’re backing the arm of Brock Purdy and two of his top pass catchers.
Brock Purdy passing yards OVER 245.5 (at 1.83 odds, a $10 bet turns into $18.30)
Brandon Aiyuk over 63.5 receiving yards (at 1.83 odds, a $10 bet turns into $18.30)
George Kittle over 46.5 receiving yards (at 1.80 odds, a $10 bet turns into $18)
4. The deep ball
If this game plays out the way we think it will, there will be a few deep shots taken by Patrick Mahomes. At least one of those should go to MVS (Marquez Valdes-Scantling). All it takes is one of those to connect. MVS OVER 18.5 receiving yards (at 1.80 odds, a $10 bet turns into $18).
5. The Longshot
Kyle Juszczyk is a beast. He’s rarely the first option on any play, and he’s usually in the game just to block. But whenever they call his number, it seems like he delivers. He had a beautiful, acrobatic catch vs. the Lions, showing off incredible athleticism for the big man. We can see him being rewarded for another season of hard work and we like the long odds. Jusczyk to score a touchdown (at 7.5 odds, a $10 bet turns into $75).
