Mahomes uses his legs.  The Chiefs’ quarterback has proven to be notorious for biding his time when it comes to running the ball, saving his scrambling attempts for the most important

moments.  This season, Mahomes averaged just 3.6 rushing attempts per game – a tick below his career average during the regular season – while never running the ball more than six times in a

single game.  In the Chiefs’ two playoff games, it’s been a much different story.  During the Divisional Round against the Texans, Mahomes had seven rush attempts, including a pair of

kneel-downs, in a 23-14 triumph. EXPLORE MORE In Kansas City’s thrilling AFC Championship thriller win over the Bills, Mahomes’ legs essentially won the game for the Chiefs.  Mahomes ran the

ball a season-high 11 times for 43 yards, including several crucial first downs.  It’s a pattern for the three-time Super Bowl winner.  PATRICK MAHOMES SUPER BOWL 2025 PLAYER PROPS In four

Super Bowls, Mahomes has averaged 7.3 rushing attempts a game – well above his career average.  In last year’s Super Bowl, he had nine rushing attempts for 66 yards in the Chiefs’ 25-22 win

over the 49ers.  Two years ago against the Eagles, Mahomes had six attempts for 44 yards.  Mahomes will face one of the best pass rushes in football, meaning his mobility will come in handy

as defenders are in his face.  Despite all that pressure, Philadelphia wasn’t the greatest at keeping opposing quarterbacks in the pocket, allowing the 12th-most quarterback rushing attempts

per game during the regular season. ------------------------- BETTING ON THE NFL? ------------------------- In the conference championship, Jayden Daniels ran six times against Philly. Even

Matthew Stafford had a pair of runs against the Eagles’ defense during the Wild Card round.  Bet on Mahomes to use his legs in pursuit of a three-peat.  THE PLAY: PATRICK MAHOMES OVER 5.5
