Chargers vs. Chiefs best prop bet: Justin Herbert Under 30.5 pass attempts (-114)
Follow all of our NFL analysis and betting advice for the 2026 NFL season.
Even with the Chargers likely trailing and needing to throw the football, stalled drives translate to fewer pass attempts for Justin Herbert.
We've seen that throughout this season for the Chargers, despite them attempting a comeback every week. Herbert has finished Under this total in three of five games, including two in a row.
He's also gone Under 30.5 attempts in three straight games at Arrowhead Stadium when this Chargers' offense was much more functional than the 2026 version.
I placed a half-unit wager at -114 odds, but I wouldn't back this if it goes past -120.
📡 SBR Edge - Chargers' offense has never looked worse
This is Justin Herbert's worst season by virtually any metric, which includes him averaging less than 30 pass attempts per game.
More Chargers vs. Chiefs prop picks
Travis Kelce Over 52.5 receiving yards (-111)
Travis Kelce has turned back the clock this season, moving more explosively than he has in years.
As a result, he's exceeded this total in three straight games. He will be fresh coming off the Chiefs' early bye week, and I expect another productive outing against a divisional opponent he's had huge performances against in his career.
FanDuel offers the best odds and the lowest total on Kelce's receiving yards prop across the best sports betting sites.

Patrick Mahomes Over 10.5 rushing yards (-115)
All it takes is one third-down scramble for Patrick Mahomes to surpass his rushing yards prop. He's more likely to use his legs to extend a drive in a key spot against an AFC West rival, especially at Arrowhead Stadium.
Mahomes has cleared this total in eight straight home games, including both contests this season.
Other sportsbooks have this Over/Under set as much as five yards higher than bet365's 10.5 total. I bet the Over there at -115 odds.
