SNF Player Props Picks: The Best Bet for Las Vegas Raiders vs. Kansas City Chiefs
I hear people talking about thinking long-term in this game we play, and I agree. It's Sunday morning, and I'm already thinking long-term. Past the 1:00 pm ET games. Even past the 4:00 pm ET games. We're talking all the way to Sunday Night Football here. We've got the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders at 8:20 pm ET on NBC, and I won't lie. We're going to need this one. Our entire day could likely come down to this game. I say, no mercy.

Derek Carr 300+ passing yards (+118)
Line available at FanDuel at time of publishing.
This one is hanging proudly at FanDuel, and it fit perfectly into the realm I like. Carr's passing yards prop is 290.5 over there at -113. That's a decent number and price, but why not go 300+ for +118? It's 10 more yards, people. If you think he's throwing for 290, then why not 300? It makes sense, and you know it.
On the season, Carr has thrown for at least 300 yards five times in eight games. One of the times he didn't, he threw for 296 yards. My point is he was right there. The Raiders are underdogs tonight, and while I don't always buy into that, they could definitely be playing from behind. That's a scientific fact. If they play from behind, we're gold.
Now some of you are going to say that the Chiefs' defense has been good against the pass recently. You're right, but only partially right. When you look at who they've played, you'll see why they looked so good. Jordan Love, Daniel Jones, Ryan Tannehill, and Taylor Heinicke are the last four signal-callers they've seen.
I think Tannehill is good, and he only threw for 270, but that's because the Titans slaughtered Kansas City that night. I don't think the Raiders' defense can shut down Patrick Mahomes the same way Tennessee did. We don't need a lot to happen tonight for this to cash.
