Kirk Cousins Throws for OVER 300 Yards & 2 Touchdowns

While the breakup was amicable, the competitor in Kirk Cousins will want to turn his late-season skid around against his former team. If anything to show himself, his team, and the Falcons fans that he still has it. The Falcons are now in a tight race for the NFC South and are not guaranteed to make the playoffs. After his horrific performances over the last two weeks, this may be Kirk’s last shot this season.

Cousins spent time with Brian Flores back in Minnesota, so he’s familiar with his tendencies. He also knows many of the defensive players well. That slight edge is going to be massive for Cousins, who will face the tall task of beating the Flores blitz and pass rush. Should he be able to stay on his feat, Cousins can certainly dot up the secondary allowing the fifth-most passing yards per game. With his back against the wall, Kirko Chainz will come alive against his former team.

Justin Herbert Throws for OVER 275 Pass Yards & Beats KC

The Chargers have a chance to massively change the fate of the AFC. The Chiefs’ secondary has been struggling all season, particularly as of late where they’ve ceded the 7th most passing yards on the season.

While the last two games haven’t been great for his stats, Herbert always comes to life versus the Chiefs. He averages 262 passing yards (291 yards on the road) and 2.2 touchdowns (2.7 on the road) against Patrick Mahomes. In the most important game of their season, which you know Jim Harbaugh will have them ready for, we’re going to see another MVP-level performance from Herbert.

Travis Kelce Finishes Week 14 as the TE1

Justin Herbert may have the Chiefs’ number, but Kelce has the Chargers’. Kelce averages 7.8 receptions for 122 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Chargers, good for 26 fantasy points. His dominance is to the point where you may as well bank on it. This is a massive game for Kansas City. The Chiefs’ passing offense has struggled to get going without Rashee Rice, and their best kick-starter to the offense has always been Kelce.

I expect Kelce to see roughly 10 targets and churn out another performance where he records over 100 yards and a touchdown. Not only will he finish as the TE1 on the week, but he’ll sweep his prop sheet.

The Rams WIN Against Buffalo

Not a lot of data here to back it up, but the vibes are there. Buffalo hasn’t lost since October 6th, and they have a massive matchup against the Lions next week in what could be a Super Bowl preview. This is the classic look-ahead scenario. The Rams are at home, and right in the middle of a bloodbath for the NFC West crown. The Rams have wins on the 49ers and Seahawks, with one game left against all divisional opponents. The 49ers are broken right now. Sean McVay is not worried about them. He knows if they beat the Bills, they’ll gain a game on either the Seahawks or Cardinals, whoever loses.

The Rams will take the game and use it to push to an NFC West title.
