We break down which prop bets we like for Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in Super Bowl 54.

The Super Bowl brings out every prop bet you can think up, so we get a plethora of opportunities to project individual players’ performances. This game is under the microscope and every player who sees any time on the field will have a role to play. These prop bets give us some ownership over projecting the many, many intricacies of Super Bowl 54. DraftKings Sportsbook offers hundreds of bets with nearly 1,200 possible outcomes.

Last year’s NFL MVP, Patrick Mahomes, will have plenty of interest in prop betting, as he’s been on a roll in the playoffs and faces a strong 49ers defense. If you think the 49ers can slow Mahomes down, you might be looking at “under” bets and if you think he goes off, the “over” could be your friend. We’ve got a full list of his prop bet options below, sortable by type of bet, outcome, and odds.

Three best bets for Patrick Mahomes

Total rushing yards: Over 24.5, -135

Mahomes has 53 rushing yards in each of his playoff games this season and has run the ball 7, 7, and 8 times in his last three games. He is now back to full health and will do everything in his power to win the Super Bowl, which includes risking a big hit while running. The 49ers have given up 25 or more yards rushing six times since Week 9 and trying to spy Mahomes with his ability as a passer will not turn out well for the 49ers.

Total Pass attempts: Over 35.5, -112

Mahomes hit 35 pass attempts in his two playoff games so far and averaged 34.6 pass attempts per game this year and 36.3 last season. The total is set well at 35.5. In games where the Chiefs blow teams out by 10 or more points, Mahomes has averaged 31 pass attempts. When they lose or win by nine or fewer points, Mahomes averages 39 pass attempts. I expect this game to be close and for Mahomes not to be as efficient as he usually is in a blow out.

Total passing yards first quarter: Over 74.5

Getting this one right can be tough, but I like Andy Reid after two weeks of game-planning and Mahomes has averaged 78.8 yards passing in the first quarter so far in his career, which includes some games playing at less than 100 percent this season.
