LAS VEGAS – Derek Carr and Patrick Mahomes are the center of attention for NFL betting fans at online sportsbooks on Monday Night Football.

Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are fresh off of a victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and expectations are high for Mahomes against the relatively weaker Las Vegas Raiders defense.

Mahomes is expected to pass for about 275.5 yards, with Bovada showing -115 odds on either side of the wager.

Mahomes has passed for this amount of yards only once in four games this season, against the Arizona Cardinals.

In four matchups against the Raiders, Mahomes has passed for more than 300 yards three times, with the fourth being 258 yards in December of last year.

Mahomes has passed for more than 2.5 touchdowns in two of his four games this season, and less than 2.5 touchdowns in the other two. He has never passed for zero touchdowns this season.

Against the Raiders, Mahomes has never passed for less than two touchdowns, but only once has he exceeded 2.5, passing for five touchdowns in November 2021.

Derek Carr, widely regarded as a worse QB than Mahomes, has the exact same odds for total passing yards on the online sportsbooks.

He’s passed for more than 275.5 yards in two of his four games this year. Carr has played sixteen games against the Chiefs in his career, and has only thrown for more than 275 yards in four of those games.

Carr has struggled to find the end zone recently, passing for zero touchdowns against the Denver Broncos, but in his previous three games, he passed for two touchdowns each time.

In his sixteen matchups against the Chiefs, Carr has passed for more than 1.5 touchdowns only six times.
