Kansas City Chiefs taking on Cleveland Browns kicks off Sunday's NFL action and our team have put together a RequestABet priced at 20/1.
Travis Kelce to score a touchdown
Kelce has had one of the greatest season we’ve ever seen from a tight end. He broke the record for most receiving yards by a TE, and picked up eleven touchdowns in the process. He has four touchdowns in his last four games, and 21 red zone targets on the season. The Kelce/Mahomes connection is near unstoppable, and the Browns have allowed ten touchdowns on the season to tight ends – ranking as the joint fourth worst defence in the league to the position.
Kareem Hunt to score a touchdown
The Browns RB tandem of Nick Chubb & Kareem Hunt is almost unfair. Hunt has been lethal this season, pounding in 13 touchdowns – including two last week. He only had eight total carries against the Steelers, but four of them came in the red zone (double Nick Chubb’s red zone carries). The Browns trust Hunt in scoring situations, and there will be an extra motivation for him to find the end zone, as he’s playing against his former team – embrace the revenge game!
Austin Hooper to score a touchdown & over 43.5 receiving yards
Hooper was unlucky to not have a brace against the Steelers, as he caught all four of his red zone targets and managed to pound into the end zone for a score. He’s asserted himself as Baker’s favourite touchdown weapon, as he saw 80% of the QBs total red zone passes last week. The Chiefs have conceded nine touchdowns to tight ends on the season, and Mahomes will likely run up the score - meaning the Browns will have to chase the lead and lean into the passing game. Hooper will get the volume, and shows real value to find the end zone and hit his yardage over.
