00:00So, plus 125, are you passing on this or are you smashing that button to hit

00:05on him hitting this touchdown prop? I think you nailed it. That's a temptation on the right

00:10because it's plus 125. It seems like a lock. It gets a lot of attention. It's probably what,

00:17three to four Chiefs touchdowns in this game. I know I have one earmarked for a running back.

00:22We'll talk about that in a second. I have one earmarked too. That's a pretty big number.

00:26And what we know about the other ones is Patrick Mahomes is going to find the open guy. He is going

00:30to look around and sometimes it's Noah Gray or it's Justin Watts. There's all these things where

00:35it makes us go, ugh, why? Why did that happen to us? So, I think you have to understand this feels

00:42very trappy to me. And the narrative of, well, maybe he does retire. Maybe this is it. This is

00:47the off into the sunset moment for Travis Kelsey. I'm going to stay away from this one. I think it's

00:52a trap. I think it's incredibly tempting, but instead I'm going to look for some other ones

00:56that have some bigger payouts that I think are possibly more of a lock than Travis Kelsey when

01:02we get down to it. George? Agreed. I agree with Joe. I'll throw a couple other things. Eagles

01:08are generally very good against tight ends, right? It's more of a fantasy nerd thing,

01:12but they don't let up a lot of points with tight ends and touchdowns are certainly a no-no as well

01:16here. I do feel like that though, in case he gets close, they're going to look to him. So,

01:20I don't want people to go for it. I did not. I don't think there's going to be as many touchdowns

01:24at Kansas City. I think Josie has three to four. I have two to three. You know, that being said,

01:29I'll be honest. If they get two to three, I don't know who's scoring them. All right. I don't feel

01:33great about anybody that Craig's going to bring up here. All right. So, it's going to be hard

01:38to figure out who the touchdowns are for Kansas City. I feel better about the Philadelphia side

01:41than I do about the Kansas City side, but no. Plus 125 is not quite enough for me to go for it.

01:48A little jaded on George here, who's on the Eagles. Now, you know, Joe, this is the interesting

01:52one for me because, you know, I sort of wonder why Isaiah Pacheco doesn't get mentioned more.

01:58It feels like all of the rushing discussion on the props and the yards and everything else is

02:02on Kareem Hunt, who's been much more of the game plan since Pacheco has been out. But Pacheco is

02:07back and he is playing. Hunt's number is plus 145 and he has been the better running back to

02:14bet on of the two. But, you know, Pacheco has now, at least in my opinion, been fully healthy

02:21for a while and even had a couple of weeks to get ready for this one. If you want to dial it back to

02:26week one, the Chiefs running back was Pacheco. Like, he was the guy until he got hurt. So, you

02:34know, I get it. And if the ball is near the goal line, they do seem to give it to Hunt to more than

02:38Pacheco. But I just, I feel like Pacheco's props to me are the ones that are a little bit more

02:43undervalued. They might be. You're certainly getting some better numbers, but I think Kareem

02:48Hunt has the security of the ball that I think Andy Reid is looking for when you get to the

02:52goal line. And that is why he has a touchdown in four straight games, because I think he feels

02:57comfortable with Kareem Hunt in these short yardages, in these spots here at the goal line,

03:01where he's going to hold on to the football and pound that rock in. So I think this one is far

03:06better than the Travis Kelsey one. You're getting a better number, plus 145. And the trend line is

03:11very clear. Week 16 touchdown, week 17 touchdown, divisional round touchdown, the championship game

03:16touchdown, Kareem Hunt. But what more do we have to get beat over the head with it? So whether

03:20Pacheco is involved or not heavily, it doesn't matter to me. We're looking for one of these

03:24three to four Chiefs touchdowns. I'm looking at Kareem Hunt for one of them. George?

03:30You know, sooner or later, I'll find something to disagree with Joe about, but this ain't it.

03:34All right. Once again, I think he's right. I don't want, I don't love it. Once again,

03:38I don't have many touchdowns coming from the Chiefs. I'm on the Eagles, as Craig brought up.

03:42So I think it's going to be an Eagles day for me. I also, you don't run against the Eagles. All right.

03:48So for him to get it, I don't think as much rushing yards coming at all from Hunt. I think the only

03:52way Kansas City wins this game, by the way, is if Mahomes goes bananas. He has to have a really

03:56good game for them to win that. So I like this much better than Travis Kelsey, which is what

04:00Joe said, and I agree. But I don't love it. I just don't see many touchdowns coming from Kansas City.

04:06But as I keep saying, I don't know where they're coming from. They are going to score one or two,

04:10you know, maybe three. I don't know where they're coming from.
