Top Chris Godwin prop picks for Chiefs vs. Buccaneers
One of the Chris Godwin props the model loves: Godwin goes under 72.5 receiving yards. Godwin and Mathieu saw plenty of one another in Week 12 of the regular season when the Chiefs raced out to a big lead en route to a 27-24 victory. Godwin came up just shy of his first 100-yard game of the season that day, finishing with 97 on eight receptions, but the model projects him to finish with 66 yards on five catches Sunday. Mathieu had his moments against the Buccaneers with a 22-yard interception return and five tackles.
Godwin did manage to break loose for one 44-yard reception in the Nov. 29 game against the Chiefs but his other seven catches ranged from seven to 11 yards. The ball-hawking Mathieu, who earned First Team All-Pro honors for the second straight season, established a career high with six interceptions and added another pick in the Divisional Round. Godwin, meanwhile, has five or fewer receptions in each of his last seven contests.
