Patrick Mahomes Over 0.5 Passing – Interceptions (-115)

Patrick Mahomes has been a bit interception-prone in recent games, throwing picks in 8 out of his last 10 outings. The statistical research indicates that Mahomes has a season hit percentage of 73.33% for throwing at least one interception per game, and his last 5 games show an even higher trend with an 80% hit rate. Given the pressure of the upcoming game and the Bengals’ ability to challenge quarterbacks, it’s likely that Mahomes may take risks that could lead to turnovers. The Bengals’ defense, despite their overall struggles, has playmakers in the secondary who can capitalize on any errant throws, making the over on interceptions a compelling pick.

Patrick Mahomes Over 20.5 Rushing – Yards (-115)

Mahomes has been effective on the ground this season, surpassing the 20.5 rushing yards line in 6 out of his last 10 games, which aligns with a 60% hit rate. His mobility is a key part of his game, and he often uses his legs to extend plays, especially when facing a strong pass rush like Cincinnati’s. The statistical research shows a season mean of 25.8 rushing yards per game, indicating that Mahomes consistently gains yardage on the ground. With the Bengals focusing on limiting Mahomes’ aerial attack, there will likely be opportunities for him to scramble and accumulate rushing yards, making the over on this prop a solid choice.
