Odds and prop bets for Commanders' prime time showdown with the Chiefs

The Washington Commanders overcame significant adversity during their incredible run to the NFC Championship game in 2024. Dan Quinn will need all that and more to shock the NFL world on prime time against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Not for the first time, the Commanders are dealing with several key injuries. They are getting a couple of essential figures back into the fold, but that doesn't detract from the challenge awaiting this understrength squad.

The Chiefs are hitting their stride. They've recovered from an indifferent start to become one of the Super Bowl favorites once again. Patrick Mahomes is playing at an MVP level, and Steve Spagnuolo's defense boasts the talent and creativity to cause problems for anyone.

Quinn and his players are backed into a corner. But it's also worth remembering that's when they performed best last season.

Marcus Mariota prop bets

With Jayden Daaniels missing his third game of the season, the Commanders will be counting upon Marcus Mariota to deliver the goods yet again. It's a lot to ask, but the veteran signal-caller has had plenty of success at this venue throughout his NFL career. He's also getting the prolific wide receiver tandem of Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Sr. back from injury, further boosting his aspirations.

FanDuel Sportsbook has placed Mariota's over/under for passing yards at 198.5, which is available at -112 in both directions (bet $112 to win $100). He is projected to complete around 18.5 completions from 30.5 attempts. The former Oregon standout's over/under for passing touchdowns is 1.5.

  • Over 1.5 passing touchdowns: +194 (bet $100 to win $194)
  • Under 1.5 passing touchdowns: -260 (bet $260 to win $100)
