Kansas City @ N.Y. Giants
Team Totals: Chiefs 25, Giants 19.5
Hey! I don’t know about you, but the Chiefs are 0-2. Patrick Mahomes is running more than ever to keep the chains moving, averaging enough rushing points (12.1) to be fantasy’s RB20. A ghost in both the run and pass games, Giants DT Dexter Lawrence has gone sack-less in seven straight starts, further simplifying this QB1 spot for Mahomes. … New York’s terrible run defense gifts Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt one last chance to stave off Senior Bowl standout and seventh-rounder Brashard Smith: Whereas Kansas City’s first opponents (LAC, PHI) rank top 16 in EPA/carry, the Giants sit 31st against Jacory Croskey-Merritt (10/82/1) and Javonte Williams (18/97/1). Pacheco has not reached 9.0 PPR points in 10 consecutive games but is a viable RB3 (and droppable if he doesn’t hit). Having led the team with 14 carries inside the 5-yard line last year, Hunt’s range of outcomes includes two scores.
