NFL Tips – New Orleans Saints @ Kansas City Chiefs – Week 5 2024

Patrick Mahomes - NFL Tips

Kansas City are unbeaten four weeks into the season with their latest challenger being Derek Carr and the New Orleans Saints.

Best Bet

New Orleans +5.5
Line

New Orleans have been a surprise packet to start season 2024 and can take it right up to the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Saints offence under Klint Kubiak has been a revelation, currently leading the NFL in points through four weeks of the season.

New Orleans have also benefited from good play on defence and special teams, as they have had the best average starting field position of all teams.

The Saints defence should fancy their chances against a Chiefs offence that hasn’t exactly lit the world on fire in the first four weeks and is now without their leading receiver, Rashee Rice.

Patrick Mahomes currently has six touchdowns on the season compared to five interceptions, and if the Chiefs continue to be loose with the football it will come back to bite them.

The Saints are a strong bet with the points in this one.


Same Game Multi

Saints +5.5, Kelce 6+ Receptions, Watson 2+ Receptions, Kamara 70+ Rushing Yards

With Rashee Rice out, expect Travis Kelce to pick up the workload much as he did last week. Old favourite Justin Watson should also see more action out of the slot.

For the Saints, Alvin Kamara has been averaging 20 carries per game.

To Score A Touchdown

Big Sammy got called into action on the goal line last week and ran one in, but he is also a pass catching threat out of the backfield.
