Despite the Cowboys’ run defense improving, quarterbacks against them are still finding their mark via the ground game.

Dallas has allowed the most rushing touchdowns to quarterbacks with six, with four of those being in the last four games (Jalen Hurts, Jacoby Brissett and Jayden Daniels).

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is scrambling at a career-high rate this season and is second in the NFL in total scrambles. The Cowboys are top-three in pressure rate and Mahomes’ completion percentage drops off a cliff when seeing pressure.

Those passing lanes may not be open for Mahomes, and with the interception troubles he’s been having this season, he may just tuck and run to convert third downs or score touchdowns.

I had expected odds closer to +325, so I’m loving the value at +460 for the Mahomes Magic to continue.

After seeing his performance on Sunday night, this shouldn’t be much of a surprise.

George Pickens has been a machine over the past two games. Pickens has been targeted 18 times by Dak Prescott, with two touchdowns and he easily leads the team with 15 end-zone targets; the former Steeler ranks fifth in the NFL with 17 deep targets.

The Chiefs are a bottom-10 team in defensive DVOA against the deep ball, and considering Pickens has gotten at least nine targets in four of five games since CeeDee Lamb returned from injury, Pickens should see plenty of volume.
