Kansas City Chiefs vs Minnesota Vikings Betting Pick

1u - Rashee Rice o30.5 Receiving Yards -120 is currently the best odds. Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

I see this for 32.5 on FanDuel which is playable as well but I love this 30.5 number from PointsBet. Rashee Rice is a breakout candidate and this may be the week we see him really make a name for himself. Rice has been seeing more snaps as the season progress and has hit this in back to back games.

Kansas City Chiefs vs Minnesota Vikings Prediction

He faces Minnesota who allow the fourth most yards to wide receivers in the league. Mahomes really seems to like this kid as he targeted him 12 times in the past two weeks. This game has a total of 50.5 and a spread of just 3.5 in favor of Kansas City. This game screams shootout and this could cash on one or two catches if he finds space.

I fully expect this prop to move and personally had it coming out at 37.5 so getting 30.5 is undeniable value. This kid looks good and has a an elite matchup. Patrick Mahomes has a passing yards prop at nearly 300, we just need just over 10% of that to go to Rice and we’re in the green. Let's roll!

Norway is expected to rotate heavily against France in its Group I finale, reportedly benching Erling Haaland, Martin Ødegaard and several other first-choice starters. With France’s odds moving from -200 to -270 after the news, Kylian Mbappe and company may be walking into a far softer matchup than expected.
