Despite both offenses boasting top QBs and numerous playmakers, the Chiefs vs. Bills TD scorer props market is one of the more difficult divisional round betting markets for bettors to decipher.Both teams boast top-four scoring defenses and at times were forced to grind out wins the hard way during the regular season at least compared to the offensive juggernauts theyve been in past years. Still, with Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen at the helm, the Chiefs and Bills are capable of putting points on the board early and often. The question is: Who are these QBs going to look to with a trip to the AFC championship game on the line?Lets take a look at Chiefs vs. Bills TD scorer props at the , along with the betting lines and trends heading into this highly anticipated divisional round rematch.NFL TD scorer prop bets for Chiefs vs. Bills divisional round playoff gameCheck out on anytime touchdown scorers for Chiefs vs. Bills:More:|Touchdown scorer props & odds for Chiefs vs. BillsWith Buffalo weather expected to be in the 20s with little to no precipitation, this years divisional Avisail Garcia Jersey round matchup will not be hindered by the elements. Both defenses have been better against the pa s than the run, but both offenses lean more on the pa sing game.Chiefs vs. Bills 2023 regular-season rankingsHere's a statistical look at these divisional round combatants: Bills Chiefs Scoring offense 26.5 PPG (6th) 21.8 PPG (15th) Pa sing offense 244.4 (8th) 246.4 YPG (6th) Rushing offense 130.1 YPG (7th) 104.9 YPG (19th) Scoring defense 18.3 PPG (4th) 17.3 PPG (2nd) Pa sing defense 196.6 YPG (7th) 176.5 YPG (4th) Rushing defense 110.6 PPG (15th) 113.2 YPG (18th)The Chiefs fed running back Isiah Pacheco in the wild card round, and he turned 24 carries into89 yards and a touchdown. Mahomes also threw the ball 41 times, however, connecting on 23 Adam Engel Jersey for 262 yards and a TD pa s to rookie WR Rashee Rice. The duo had another TD connection nullified due to a penalty. Curiously, star tight end Travis Kelces lengthy TD drought continued he hasnt found paydirt for seven straight games.Buffalo has a more balanced offense and a better running game than the Chiefs. Second-year RB James Cook has been unleashed down the stretch, averaging over 18 carries per game over the last five. But Cook doesnt see many touches near the goal line, where Josh Allen or the teams bigger backs tend to take over. Cook has handled only two carries inside the five-yard line since Week 4, although they came in Weeks 17 and 18. Four of Cooks six TDs on the season have been through the air.More on this matchup: | Chiefs vs. Bills anytime touchdown scorer prop bet picksIn past years, stars like Travis Kelce and Stefon Diggs would top the TD scorer props market by a bigger margin, offering value on certain second-tier options. Thats not the case thanks to lengthy stretches without a score (seven games for Kelce, six for Diggs). So the top end of the Chiefs vs. Bills player props market is crowded, with five options between +120 and +150.So lets be judicious with our player props despite all the star power. The Bills won a December matchup with the Chiefs by a fairly tame James Shields Jersey 20-17 score.Isiah Pacheco A tad chalky, but the Chiefs have leaned on the explosive second-year RB down the stretch. Since Jerick McKinnon hit IR prior to Week 16, Pacheco has nearly had the Chiefs backfield to himself, with 53 carries for 245 yards and two TDs on the ground. He scored in the teams ugly 20-14 lo s to the Raiders in Week 16 despite toting the rock only 11 times for 26 yards but followed that up with 18 for 130 against Cincinnati (7.2 a pop). Pacheco has quietly been a reliable target-earner as well, averaging 4.2 looks per game over his last five, with two receiving TDs on the season.Stefon Diggs It may not be a huge discount, but at the Bills No. 1 WR is an enticing option. Diggs hasnt scored since Week 12, but Josh Allen has peppered him with targets down the stretch (8.2 per game over the last five), including three in the end zone. Diggs was wide open on a potential 89-yard TD in Week 18 vs. the Dolphins but Allen overthrew him. A consummate WR diva,Diggs will be back in the end zone sooner than later.Dalton Kincaid & Dawson Knox Veteran TE Dawson Knox returned from a five-week absence in Week 14 and barely dented rookie Dalton Kincaids robust role in the Buffalo offense. Allen has targeted Kincaid 21 times over the last three games while looking Knoxs way only five times.Knox managed to find the end zone twice in three weeks on this slim usage his second and third scores on the year. Kincaid, on the other hand, has gradually become a major part of the Bills offense during his first year in the league, lining up all over the formation. Ozzie Guillen Jersey Kincaid is now a crucial cog in the Bills pa sing offense, with WR2 Gabe Davis disappearing at times (he mi sed the wild card round with an injury).Consider Kincaid more of a WR2 for this matchup despite Davis returning. Knox is a boom or bust TD option but is priced accordingly.Chiefs vs. Bills anytime TD scorer parlayWith Allen's odds so short, one intriguing option is to parlay his anytime touchdown with the same bet for Patrick Mahomes, who has yet to call his own number this season.Josh Allen + Patrick Mahomes (+1050 at )Since firing offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey after Week 10, the Bills have unleashed Josh Allen on the ground. Allen only carried the ball more than seven times in a game once over the teams first 10 contests. Since then? The 6-foot-5, 237-pound QB has done so in six of eight, averaging 9.0 per game and punching in nine of his career-high 15 rushing scores.Allen is a fine bet to score at , but lets look to the athletic QB on the other side of this one for a TD-scorer parlay. Mahomes has yet to find the end zone on the ground this year, but he did so four times last season and twice in each of the four previous seasons. Mahomes is as elusive in the pocket as any QB in the league, and with the season on the line he will not hesitate to break free from the pocket if the opportunity arises.Futures: | If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.
