2 Best NFL Player Prop Bets for Chiefs at Cowboys

Two teams coming off come-from-behind wins meet in Dallas for Cowboys vs Chiefs. 

In addition to the pregame spread and total, bettors can now find NFL odds for player props at the BetMGM online sportsbook. 

Below, I’ve outlined a pair of player prop predictions for the contest. Odds are reflective at time of writing and are subject to movement. 

Player Prop Picks for Chiefs at Cowboys

JuJu Smith-Schuster Under 12.5 Receiving Yards (-118)

As Kansas City’s wideouts have returned to full health, Smith-Schuster has earned less of a role. 

After clearing this benchmark in seven of his first eight games, he has finished under 12.5 yards in three straight. 

Never in those three games – Buffalo, Denver and Indianapolis – did he clear 8.5 yards. 

The target share has dried up significantly as well. Over his last three games, Smith-Schuster has amassed only three targets and two receptions for 10 total yards. 

While Smith-Schuster recorded 45 snaps last week, most resigned him to run-blocking duties. Of those 45 snaps, 23 saw him operate in a blocking role. 

Plus, this game features the potential for Kansas City to operate in a positive game script. 

With Isiah Pacheco returning, it could lead to even fewer passing opportunities for Smith-Schuster. Based on those factors, I predict Smith-Schuster stays under this number. 

Rashee Rice Anytime Touchdown (-125)

Rice scored three touchdowns in his first two games back. However, he failed to find the end zone in three straight games. 

But he still features on a Chiefs offense that throws heavily to score. This season, Patrick Mahomes has attempted 41 passes from inside the 10-yard line. 

Meanwhile, Chiefs running backs have attempted only 24 carries. 

Dallas is already allowing 3.8 red zone scoring opportunities per game. That figure rises to 4.2 at home, the second-largest figure across the entire league. 

The Cowboys outrank only Cincinnati in passing touchdowns allowed per game (2.2). That has come despite playing only three games against top-10 pass offense DVOA units. 

Plus, Dallas ranks 30th in DVOA against WR1s. Further, of the 24 touchdown passes they’ve allowed this season, 18 have gone to opposing wide receivers. 

Given those factors, I predict Rice finds the end zone for the first time since Week 8.
