Game Outlook
We get a rematch of Super Bowl LVII with the Chiefs taking on the Eagles in a game featuring a 48.5 point total, with KC favored by just 1.5. Worth noting, this total has bounced around from 48 to 49.5 and back to 48.5, so there seems to be split opinions in the betting market on the over vs. under. I could certainly see a path for both outcomes, so across a portfolio of lineups, I’ll be building lineups that correlate with a high-scoring shootout as well as one that leans into the under. Before we jump into my favorite plays on the slate, let’s take a look at how these offenses tend to operate.
