The Kansas City Chiefs come all the way to New Jersey in search of their first win of the season. Waiting for them on Sunday Night Football are the New York Giants.
I take my favorite bets for SNF and combine them for a fun same-game parlay, leaning on the Kansas City ground game to find its footing versus the G-Men.
Here is my best SGP picks and Chiefs vs. Giants predictions for September 21.
Our best Chiefs vs Giants SGP for Week 3
The Kansas City Chiefs’ slow start to the season has been caused by a few factors, one of which is a toothless rushing attack — beyond Patrick Mahomes making plays with his legs. Andy Reid is dedicated to getting the ground game going, and the New York Giants are the perfect opponent.
Through two weeks, the Giants are one of the softest run stop units in the land, lending value to K.C. running back Isiah Pacheco to produce more than 41.5 rushing yards in Week 3.
Unlike the last two weeks, with the Chiefs trailing late, game script says Kansas City is leading and protecting that lead by leaning on the run. That will also bleed over to red zone touches for Pacheco, who I like to score a touchdown on SNF.
Finally, with this spread short of the key number of 6, I’m laying the 5.5-point spread with the road favorite.
Steve Spagnoulo’s defense will be too much for Russell Wilson and out-classed OC Mike Kafka, who worked with the Chiefs for years. I’ll take Kansas City to finally get in the win column and cover this spread.
