'MNF' Week 11 bets: Two strong TD props for Chiefs-Eagles
We've started stacking some steady wins in the TD market around here, so if it's OK with all of you, let's just keep doing that for this massive "MNF" game.
When the Eagles and Chiefs met in the Super Bowl, they combined for 73 points. While we may not get the same output here, it does suggest points and touchdowns are coming, and we see a few clear value spots to grab to wrap our Week 11 in the NFL.
Jalen Hurts (+120 FanDuel)
This price is just too good to pass up on when it comes to Jalen Hurts, which seems silly for a TD prop that we often acknowledge can be incredibly random.
The difference here is how Philly uses Hurts. You all know it by now. The "Tush Push" or the "Brotherly Shove" can be debated all people want, but right now, it's here to stay, and right now, the Eagles are borderline unstoppable with.
They've shown no hesitation in deploying it at the goal line, and that's why Hurts is always a good touchdown bet. He's scored in six of nine games this season and rushed in three touchdowns against Kansas City in the Super Bowl. This is very much a bet worth making.
Rashee Rice (+235 DraftKings)
No team allows more touchdowns per game to WRs than the Philadelphia Eagles, handing out 1.56 WR touchdowns/game this season. Not only do the touchdowns tend to flow through the air, but Philly is also among the worst secondaries in football at slowing down passing yardage or wide receiver receptions.
That all adds up to a big game from Rashee Rice, the Kansas City wide-out we trust most. Rice tops the WR room with 41 targets, 10 of which have come in the red zone. Those red zone numbers are second to only Travis Kelce's 13 for Chiefs pass-catchers, and it's resulted in four Rice TDs this season.
He's scored in three of his last five games; this is a great price given the situation.
