Texans Divisional Playoffs Top 5 Player Props | NFL Playoff Picks Today, Best Bets

John Metchie III UNDER 33.5 Receiving Yards (-114)

As much as the Texans need to turn to other options with their injuries in their wide receiver room, there's value in John Metchie III going under his receiving yards prop. Metchie III has seen an uptick in targets down the stretch, but they aren't the type of targets that will see him make big plays downfield. Metchie III has gone under the number for his receiving prop in five of his last six games.

Dalton Schultz OVER 33.5 Receiving Yards (-114)

For the Texans to hang with the Chiefs, they’ll need more than a one-man show on offense. Tight end Dalton Schultz might not have turned heads this season, but he provides a reliable target in the middle of the field against a Chiefs defense that can be exploited there. In their last matchup, Schultz hauled in five catches for 45 yards, and I anticipate a similar role for him this time. With the spread hinting at a likely deficit, Schultz could see plenty of opportunities as the Texans try to stay in the game.

Spread: Chiefs -8.5 | Moneyline: Chiefs -490 | Texans +380 | Total: 41.5

C.J. Stroud OVER 229.5 Passing Yards (-114)

It should hardly surprise anyone to state that C.J. Stroud must be nearly perfect for the Texans to pull off the road upset in the Divisional Round. Stroud looked much more like the quarterback in his rookie season last week, which is an excellent sign that he's starting to figure things out again. Two of his previous three games have seen Stroud go over the number for his passing prop, including once against the Chiefs. If the Texans are trailing, as many predict, Stroud will need to be active with his arm.

Joe Mixon UNDER 17.5 Receiving Yards (-114)

Although this is a smaller number, and those can always come back to bite us, we're looking at trends here. Joe Mixon will get much work in this matchup, but we're not projecting that to be in the passing game. Mixon has gone under the number in each of his last four games, including against this Kansas City defense.
