Consider the over on Jalen Hurts’s rushing yards prop

This prop has been a consistent winner against the Chiefs, so let’s take the over on Hurts’s rushing yards prop in Super Bowl XLII.

Excluding a couple of games that didn’t have a line on quarterback rushing yards, the over has been a winner against the Chiefs in nine of the last 10 games. The winners included some quarterbacks with higher lines such as Malik Willis (over 39.5 yards) and Bryce Perkins (over 43.5 yards). 

Another way to look at the Chiefs’ tendency to give up rushing yards is with the metric opponent-adjusted yards allowed. Using data from TruMedia, we can analyze how many more rushing yards per attempt a defense gives up to quarterbacks relative to that quarterback’s average against all other opponents. 

Based on this metric, the Chiefs are allowing 16% more rushing yards than expected to quarterbacks, which ranks 23rd. 

Given Hurts’s playmaking ability and the Chiefs’ tendency to allow yards on the ground to quarterbacks, this looks like a good opportunity to bet the over on Hurts rushing yards prop in the Super Bowl. 

Consider the over on Jalen Hurts’s passing touchdowns prop

In what should be a high-scoring game, take the over on Hurts’s passing touchdowns prop in Super Bowl XLII.

The Chiefs have not allowed a quarterback to throw multiple touchdowns in the postseason this year, however, they did allow 11 of 17 starting quarterbacks to toss multiple touchdown passes in the regular season. 

The list of regular season opponents who did not throw multiple touchdowns against Kansas City is as follows:

  • Bryce Perkins
  • Malik Willis
  • Jeff Driskell
  • Geno Smith
  • Russell Wilson
  • Jarrett Stidham

That’s not exactly a list of high-profile passers, so this comes as no surprise. And Wilson, who stands out as the most talented of the bunch, had only three games with multiple touchdowns 一 and one of those was against the Chiefs. 

It’s also worth noting the Chiefs were heavily favored in most games featuring the quarterbacks listed above, which diminished the game’s total. The total for Super Bowl LVII is set to 49.5 points. 

Kansas City has played 13 games with the total set to 47 points or higher, and the opposing quarterback has thrown multiple touchdowns in 11 of those contests
