Patrick Mahomes Player Prop Bets for the 2025 Super Bowl
Patrick Mahomes to Throw an Interception (-102)
Mahomes is due for a pick, and I'm intrigued by these -102 odds.
Through the first 10 games of the 2024 season, Mahomes tossed 11 interceptions, including at least one pick in 8 of 10 outings. His interception rate in that span was 3.2% -- well above his career clip of 1.8%. He was going to stop throwing picks eventually, and he has done just that -- going without an interception in eight straight games. But I think it's now swung too far the other way.
During his eight-game streak with no interceptions, Mahomes has recorded seven turnover-worthy plays, per PFF, including one apiece in each of the Chiefs' playoff games. He's been lucky not to have an interception in that span.
The Eagles ended the regular season with the No. 1 schedule-adjusted pass defense, per our numbers. They're a super tough matchup for any QB, and they just brought the Jayden Daniels runaway train to a halt last time out (which included Daniels throwing a pick).
Our NFL player projections have Mahomes throwing 0.55 interceptions on Sunday. I'll roll the dice at these -102 odds.
Patrick Mahomes Over 4.5 First-Quarter Rushing Yards (-106)
Throughout his career, Mahomes has upped his rushing production in the playoffs, and he can run for five-plus yards in the first quarter on Sunday.
Mahomes is averaging 20.0 rushing yards per game in the regular season in his career. In the playoffs, that jumps to 29.1. He's run for 14 and 43 yards through two postseason games this season.
In the first quarter in this year's playoffs, Mahomes has run for zero yards against the Houston Texans and 16 yards (on two attempts) versus the Buffalo Bills. In the game against Houston, Mahomes had a 15-yard scramble on the first play of the second quarter.
There's not a lot of wiggle room with this bet, and depending on how the quarter plays out, there's a chance the Chiefs don't run that many first-quarter plays. But with our model projecting Mahomes for 30.3 rushing yards for the game, I like his chances to run for at least five yards in the opening quarter.
