PHI Eagles vs KC Chiefs Player Props & Best Bets (Week 2)

• The Philadelphia Eagles are 1.5-point road favorites over the Kansas City Chiefs in a Week 2 Super Bowl rematch
• Kansas City is coming off a Week 1 loss and is a staggering 14-1 straight up in their last 15 games following a defeat.
• This preview analyzes the odds, key matchups, and player props, offering our best prediction for this heavyweight clash.

A marquee Week 2 showdown features a rematch of Super Bowl LVII, as the Philadelphia Eagles (1-0) travel to face the shorthanded Kansas City Chiefs (0-1), who will be desperate to avoid an 0-2 start after all three of their AFC West rivals won in Week 1. Philly and KC will kickoff at 3:25 pm CT/4:25 pm ET from Arrowhead Stadium with FOX carrying the broadcast. The weather forecast is perfect for football, calling for sunny skies with a temperature of 88°F and a light 7 mph wind.

The quarterback duel pits Jalen Hurts, who was ruthlessly efficient in a Week 1 victory, against Patrick Mahomes, who is looking to bounce back after a frustrating season-opening loss. Hurts was a model of efficiency against the Dallas Cowboys, completing 82.6% of his passes for 152 yards while the ground game bulldozed its way to three touchdowns.

Meanwhile, Mahomes was forced to carry the load against the Los Angeles Chargers, throwing for 258 yards and a touchdown while also leading the team in rushing with 57 yards and another score. Despite his heroics, offensive stagnation and defensive lapses doomed the Chiefs in a 27-21 setback.

This matchup is more than just a regular season game; it’s a litmus test for both squads. Below, I have set out the top Eagles vs Chiefs player props, plus my favorite PHI vs KC props to bet on Sep. 14.

Eagles vs Chiefs Prop Pick #1:Travis Kelce Over 44.5 Receiving Yards (-111 at DraftKings)

My favorite bet of the night is Kelce to go over 44.5 receiving yards. The the Chiefs’ receiver room is decimated by injuries and Kelce, long Mahomes’ safety blanket, will be targeted early and often. He showed in Week 1 that there is plenty of juice left in those 35-year-old legs. He only had two catches on four targets, but managed 47 yards and a touchdown in a 27-21 loss to a very good LA Charger defense.

He’ll see more than four targets this week – don’t be surprised if it’s double.

The Eagles are good at covering tight ends. They didn’t allow a single TD to a tight end last season. But Jake Ferguson had five catches on six targets for Dallas last week.

Eagles vs Chiefs Prop Pick #2: Saquon Barkley Over 86.5 Rushing Yards (-110 at bet365)

Saquon Barkley only managed 50 yards on 18 carries in Week 1, a subpar 3.3 yards-per-carry average. He was also bottled up in Super Bowl 59, generating just 57 yards on 25 carries (2.3 YPC), which was about the only success the KC defense found that night.

The Eagles run game is too powerful to contain forever, though. Devoting too many resources to stopping Barkley had a massive negative impact in other areas during KC’s 44-22 blowout loss to Philadelphia in the Super Bowl. The Chief defense is going to have to take a more-balanced approach today, and that’s going to open holes for the reigning Offensive Player of the Year.

Eagles vs Chiefs Prop Pick #3: AJ Brown Over 71.5 Receiving Yards (-118 at BetMGM)

My final Eagles/Chiefs prop pick is Philadelphia WR1 to go over 71.5 receiving yards. The Philly passing game was efficient in Week 1 but far from prolific. Jalen Hurts attempted just 23 passes (going 19-of-23 for 152 yards, no TDs, no INTs, and one sack). Brown received just a single target.

The Ole Miss product had at least four targets in all 13 of his regular-season games last year, averaging 7.5 targets and 83.0 yards per game. He went over 71.5 in eight of those 13 contests.
