Yahoo Sports NFL on Patrick Mahomes

Mahomes has elite matchup vs. Jets' weak pass defense; 9.5-point home favorite.

Mahomes finished as QB5 last week against a healthy Broncos defense and is QB14 on QB12 EPA per dropback for the season. The Chiefs are one of the best offenses in the NFL when not facing a top-3 defense, and their weaknesses at LT and WR are hidden best against mediocre opponents. The Jets may not have their top-two defensive linemen and have allowed top-5 fantasy outings from Kirk Cousins, Malik Willis, and Drake Maye in their last three games. Kansas City enters as 9.5-point home favorites with a 28.75-point implied team total (third-highest).
