Stroud's struggles against the Chiefs earlier in the season (two interceptions) reinforce this prediction.

6. Lamar Jackson Passing Yards (7:04–9:51): Munaf advises betting on Lamar Jackson going under 221.5 passing yards due to historical struggles against Buffalo and expected weather challenges.
7. Saquon Barkley Receiving Yards (10:33–12:41): Sleepy bets on Barkley over 11.5 receiving yards, explaining how blitz-heavy Rams defenses historically lead to running back checkdowns.
8. Isaiah Pacheco Rushing Yards (13:33–15:15): Steve predicts over 41.5 rushing yards for Pacheco, citing his return from injury, improved health, and a Chiefs game script favoring running.
9. Jameer Gibbs Longest Rush (16:04–18:26): Munaf recommends Gibbs’ longest rush over 19.5 yards due to the Commanders’ poor rush defense and Gibbs’ explosive playstyle.
10. Dalton Schultz Receiving Yards (25:49–27:08): Munaf backs Schultz to exceed 38.5 receiving yards against the Chiefs, pointing out their susceptibility to tight ends and Schultz’s role in the Texans’ offense.
