THE BLITZ 📽️: 84.09 RushY
1. Tough Matchup, but Line May Be Overadjusted
The Chiefs lead the league in fewest rushing yards allowed per game (63.2), but this stat is heavily influenced by the fewest rushing attempts allowed (17.3 per game). This betting line reflects Kansas City’s defensive dominance but may overlook Mixon's volume and workload.
2. Volume is Key
Mixon ranks 3rd in the NFL in rushing attempts per game (19.73), significantly higher than the average RBs the Chiefs have faced recently. His workload alone gives him a higher probability of hitting this number, as he’s averaging 82.7 rushing yards per game this season. Even against a stout run defense, volume often overcomes efficiency concerns.
3. Recent Success Against KC
The Chiefs' recent opponents have shown they’re not invincible against the run:
Jerome Ford: 7 carries for 84 yards, TD
Gus Edwards/Justice Hill: Combined 18 carries for 70 yards, TD
Sincere McCormick: 12 carries for 64 yards
Chuba Hubbard: 16 carries for 58 yards, TD
None of these backs match Mixon’s talent or role as a bell cow, yet they’ve found ways to succeed against Kansas City.
4. Game Script and Workload Expectation
Kansas City has been involved in close games lately, with six straight decided by three points or less (or OT) before their 21-7 win over Cleveland. If this matchup stays competitive as expected (close spread), Mixon should continue to see a high volume of carries, making 60.5 rushing yards well within reach.
5. Injury to KC’s Run Defense
The Chiefs will be without one of their top run defenders, Chamarri Conner, which could slightly weaken their ability to contain Mixon.
FanDuel already has this line up to 64.5. I'll take a shot on the overcorrection.

2-Leg Parlay – Bengals Moneyline & Total Over 39.5 Points (-130 @ MGM)(-109 w/ 20% Boost)
This matchup sets up as a high-scoring affair between two teams with defensive vulnerabilities. The Bengals’ offense, led by Joe Burrow, is one of the league’s most potent units, and while their defense has struggled, they should have the firepower to outlast Dallas. Conversely, the Cowboys have shown improvement offensively behind Cooper Rush, and their newfound balance with an effective rushing attack complements their aerial threat.
Both teams have consistently hit high totals, with each recording 40+ combined points in their last five games, suggesting the over on 39.5 is well within reach. While Cincinnati’s defense ranks near the bottom in key metrics (28th in coverage and 27th in pass rush per PFF), the Cowboys’ defense, despite its playmaking ability, has shown cracks in pass coverage and could struggle to contain Cincinnati’s weapons.
As for the moneyline, Cincinnati has the edge with a more proven quarterback in Burrow and a deeper offensive arsenal. Playing at home, they should be able to exploit Dallas' deficiencies and secure the win, even if it’s close. The Bengals’ defense may allow some points, but their offense is likely to do enough to pull ahead.
