Miles Sanders vs the Kansas City Chiefs

Miles Sanders Most Rushing Yards in the Game +105

The time has finally come, the Super Bowl is here and I feel like we actually are being awarded the two best teams in football. One team, the Philadelphia Eagles, clearly separate as an all around team but the Chiefs have the best QB in football which helps them overcome roster deficiencies. I’ve been on the Eagles all season, nabbing them at 25/1 to win the Super Bowl pre-season and I fully expect them to win this game, because they are simply the better team. Patrick Mahomes can certainly go legend and win this game for the Chiefs, but I just don’t think they have enough top to bottom to compete with the most well-rounded, dominant team in football. 

I love everything about Miles Sanders in this game, because I think the Eagles will be winning and playing from ahead. It’s worth mentioning that coming off a 0 touchdown season in 2021-22, Sanders ranked top-five in rushing yards to go along with double-digit touchdowns. He had more rushing yards than Dalvin Cook, Christian McCaffrey and Najee Harris while also posting more trips to the end-zone on the ground than those players as well. He’s been one of the best backs in football, and he was clearly hindered by injury down the stretch of the season. After getting multiple weeks off to rest, he looked great in their first playoff game rushing 17 times for 90 yards against the New York Giants. He found the box twice against the vaunted 49ers rushing defense in the NFC Championship game, but was only needed for 11 carries due to the score of the game. It’s true that the Eagles like to mix in Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott, but it’s also true that most of their playoff damage has come in the second-half of these games once they are already out of hand. 

In the first two playoff games this season, Sanders has out-touched Gainwell 24-10 in the first half, with Scott logging a combined 4 touches in the first half of those games. Philadelphia is going to run the football, behind the best offensive line in football, especially with concerns about Hurts’ deep ball due to his injured shoulder. I have no idea the real health of his shoulder and I’m not expecting it to limit him in this game, but I am expecting the Eagles to run the ball a lot if playing from ahead. Kansas City is quietly a pretty bad run-defense, and I think that the Bengals could have exploited that more when they had the ball late in the game two weeks ago instead of launching 40+ yard deep balls. 

There is a scenario where the Chiefs are winning and Isaiah Pacheco is going off, but I just don’t see him having the volume to do so if they’re trailing. That narrows it down to Sanders and Hurts to lead the game in rushing yards and I really think Sanders will get fed in a big game. They’ve been cautious with him when winning big, but in the biggest game of them all they’re going to ride with Sanders in my opinion. I think there is value in multiple Sanders bets, but locking him in at plus money to lead the game in rushing is my current favorite.
