The Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs will square off in the final game of the Divisional Round of the 2024 NFL playoffs on Sunday. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will make his first playoff start on the road when Kansas City visits Bills Stadium on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET. Mahomes has failed to throw multiple touchdown passes in five of his last six outings and his over/under for total passing yards on Sunday is 261.5 in the latest NFL player props, a number he hasn't eclipsed in his last three contests.
Should you consider including Mahomes in your NFL prop bets or should you look for value in the Buccaneers vs. Lions matchup, which will feature players like Jared Goff, Mike Evans and Amon-Ra St. Brown playing in a dome? Before betting any NFL props for Sunday's doubleheader or entering selections on sites like PrizePicks, you need to see the NFL prop predictions powered by SportsLine AI.
Built using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques by SportsLine's Data Science team, AI Predictions and AI Ratings are generated for each player prop. The AI predictions are determined by statistically learning from each player's historical data and then quantitatively evaluating the strength of the opponent's defense by assigning a numeric value out of 100 called a matchup score.
Once a prediction is formulated, the AI rating is generated using the prediction, the matchup score, and the odds of the market. For example, you could see a 5-star rating on an over bet if a player is facing a poor defense, their prediction differs from the line and there are favorable odds.
In addition, SportsLine AI is the first fully automated predictive model at SportsLine. It continuously refreshes on the most recent available data and can help you spot the biggest discrepancies in the lines. So far this season, SportsLine's AI PickBot has hit a whopping 1,674 4.5- and 5-star prop picks. Anyone who has followed it is way up.
For Sunday's doubleheader, the AI PickBot has evaluated the NFL player prop odds and provided NFL prop picks for every available prop market. You can only see the AI player prop predictions for Sunday's NFL Divisional Round games here.
Top NFL player prop bets for Sunday's doubleheader
After analyzing Sunday's doubleheader and examining the many NFL player props, the AI PickBot says Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield goes over 253.5 passing yards. Mayfield was outstanding in Tampa Bay's victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Super Wild Card Weekend. He completed 61.1% of his passes for 337 yards and three touchdowns. Mayfield has now eclipsed 300 passing yards in two of his last three games.
He's been efficient on the road as well, throwing for 2,028 yards, 18 touchdowns and just three interceptions. Mayfield will now face a Lions defense that has given up 345 or more passing yards in each of their last four games. Last week against Los Angeles, Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 25 of 36 pass attempts for 367 yards and two touchdowns.
Detroit's leaky secondary is a big reason why SportsLine AI is projecting Mayfield will finish with 285.8 passing yards against Detroit, safely placing him above the current prop total of 253.5, making it one of the four-star picks for Sunday. See more NFL props here.
