This week’s picks
Derek Carr passing yards O/U: 258.5
■ Vincent Bonsignore: Under — Raiders will run the ball better Sunday.
■ Ed Graney: Under — Even when trailing …
■ Adam Hill: Under — The Chiefs’ defense has gone from historically bad to among the league’s best over the past two months.
■ Sam Gordon: Under — Kansas City’s defense has been the best in the league the past six weeks.
■ Heidi Fang: Over — Still think the Raiders will pass more than run. The yards will add up.
Hunter Renfrow receiving yards O/U: 69.5
■ Vincent Bonsignore: Over — He is Carr’s go-to target.
■ Ed Graney: Under — K.C. has done well against him.
■ Adam Hill: Over — He has caught 17 of 19 targets over the past two weeks and will be counted on once again with Darren Waller out.
■ Sam Gordon: Over — The third-year slot receiver is Carr’s most trusted target and has had consecutive 100-yard outings.
■ Heidi Fang: Over — Renfrow will remain Carr’s go-to target.
Josh Jacobs rushing yards O/U: 64.5
■ Vincent Bonsignore: Over — He has to pick up the load.
■ Ed Graney: Under — Had 16 vs. K.C. last month.
■ Adam Hill: Over — Kansas City is still somewhat vulnerable to the run. Jacobs has no real competition for carries.
■ Sam Gordon: Under — He’s topped this mark just twice this year.
■ Heidi Fang: Under — I think the Raiders will utilize Peyton Barber, and that will take away yards from Jacobs.
Pat Mahomes passing yards O/U: 286.5
■ Vincent Bonsignore: Over — Mahomes finding his groove.
■ Ed Graney: Under — Not your brother’s Pat Mahomes.
■ Adam Hill: Over — It hasn’t been his most productive season, but he matches up well against the Raiders’ defense.
■ Sam Gordon: Over — He averages more than 320 passing yards per game against the Raiders.
■ Heidi Fang: Over — I think Mahomes will pick apart the Raiders’ defense once again.
Travis Kelce receptions O/U: 5.5
■ Vincent Bonsignore: Over — He loves playing the Raiders.
■ Ed Graney: Over — For like, what, 200 yards?
■ Adam Hill: Over — He was mostly ignored last week. That won’t happen twice in a row.
■ Sam Gordon: Over — He torches the Raiders, too.
■ Heidi Fang: Over — Kelce has a solid history against the Raiders. That will continue Sunday.
