7 minNFL Player Props Divisional Round: Kansas City Chiefs vs. Buffalo Bills Top Anytime TD Scorer Bets
The most highly anticipated matchup of the NFL Divisional Round will send Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs onto the road against the Buffalo Bills. This is quickly becoming one of, if not the biggest, rivalry in the AFC, with plenty of recent history and animosity between these two opponents.
Mahomes has never played a road playoff game until now, so expect Orchard Park, New York to be raucous on Sunday night. Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills have won six consecutive games, essentially treating every game like a playoff environment since coming out of their Week 13 Bye. The win streak began at Arrowhead Stadium in Week 14, when the Bills marched into Kansas City and won 20-17, building a quick 14-0 lead to ride out a late push by the Chiefs.
Now, we're going to watch the next chapter of this rivalry unfold Sunday in Buffalo, with a trip to the AFC Championship game against Baltimore at stake. NFL handicapper Matt MacKay is here to share a few of his favorite anytime touchdown scorer prop bets to wager ahead of the final game on the Divisional Round slate.

BEST NFL DIVISIONAL ROUND ANYTIME TD BETS: CHIEFS VS. BILLS
Josh Allen Anytime TD Scorer (-115) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Josh Allen showcased his elite ball carrying skillset against Pittsburgh during the AFC Wild Card round, ripping off a 52-yard rushing touchdown much to the delight of Bills fans in attendance. Buffalo's franchise quarterback now has 16 rushing touchdowns since the season began, and he'll look to add to this number against a leaky Kansas City run defense on Sunday.
The Chiefs, prior to holding Miami to 76 total rushing yards in last week's Wild Card Round, had allowed at least 100 total rushing yards to opponents in seven of their previous eight games played. Allen managed to find the end zone during Buffalo's road win in Kansas City that ignited their current winning streak. Plus, he handles anywhere from five to 15 carries per game, so let's stake two units on Allen to score a rushing touchdown on Sunday against the Chiefs.
Rashee Rice Anytime TD Scorer (+130) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Rookie wideout Rashee Rice has evolved into the undisputed WR1 in Kansas City's offense. He has been the biggest playmaker for Patrick Mahomes this season, even more so than Travis Kelce, but the Bills' pass defense will prove to be challenging. Still, Rice was the focal point of Kansas City's offense during their dominant win against Miami last week, leading the Chiefs in targets (12), receptions (8), and yards (130), while scoring the first touchdown of the game.
Rice also scored against Buffalo during their matchup earlier this season. Factoring in volume, combined with the Bills' pass defense, which gave up two receiving touchdowns to the Steelers' lesser wide receiving corps last week, the Chiefs' rookie wideout warrants at least one unit to be staked on his +130 anytime touchdown scorer odds.
Travis Kelce Anytime TD Scorer (+135) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
How many times can Travis Kelce disappoint when it comes to cashing anytime touchdown tickets? The Chiefs' star tight end is currently riding a seven-game touchdown drought, but Kelce has also scored at least one touchdown in six of the Chiefs' last seven playoff games. This includes four consecutive touchdowns scored in the AFC Divisional round.
Last week, although no touchdown was scored, Kelce wound up with seven receptions for 71 yards on 10 targets. During their Week 14 matchup at Arrowhead Stadium, Kelce also was busy and highly efficient, logging six receptions for 83 yards on 10 targets. The volume is guaranteed for Kelce, but he will face a Bills defense that has surrendered only two touchdowns to tight ends all season.
Still, with such a big touchdown drought, combined with his high-usage as a receiver in a top-heavy Kansas City offense, combined with past success finding the end zone in these high-stake divisional round games, Kelce should have at least one unit staked on his anytime touchdown scorer odds at +135 on FanDuel Sportsbook.
Dalton Kincaid Anytime TD Scorer (+290) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The tight ends for Buffalo both managed to find the end zone against Pittsburgh, including rookie Dalton Kincaid, whose usage has ticked down since the return of Dawson Knox. Kincaid scored only his third touchdown of the season, which feels low based on how productive we've seen him play in must-win games for Buffalo.
The rookie tight end has bounced between six to eight targets in three consecutive games, and he's earning downfield opportunities, averaging at least 9.8 yards per target, which bodes well with Allen's strong arm in or near the red zone. Kincaid only converted eight targets into five receptions for 21 yards against the Chiefs back in Week 14, but at +290 odds on FanDuel Sportsbook, the rookie deserves an investment of at least half a unit on his anytime touchdown scorer prop odds Sunday night.
