2025 NFL’s Week 6 features two powerhouses colliding against one another, in the form of the Chiefs vs the Lions going at each other, in this AFC vs NFC rivalry game. While both teams have explosive and supreme talent, record wise these two could not be further apart, where the Lions are thriving and the Chiefs are heavily struggling to start out their 2025 campaigns.
The Lions are coming into this matchup with a 4-game winning streak and they have been dominant to start the season, under Jared Goff’s offensive brilliance, Aidan Hutchinson’s defensive prowess, and head coach Dam Campbell’s play call. While, the Chiefs are in a very unfamiliar territory under Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, starting their season 2-3, most recently losing to the Jaguars in Week 5. With key players missing for the Chiefs, their offense and defense has looked stagnant at times, and it is clear that they need some changes to be made.

Jahmry Gibbs has been the Lions’ focal point this season, on their offense. Except for the first game against the Packers, Gibbs has had at least 12 rush attempts or more in every single game, which has resulted in a four-game winning streak for the Lions. He’s recorded 4 TDs so far and is up to 325 rushing yards this season. Looking at the Chiefs’ rushing defense, ranking 21st in the league, the Lions are bound to exploit this weakness, using Gibbs.
Similarly, David Montgomery is also a threat to score at any given time looking at his 2025 performance. While Gibbs is their go to RB, Montgomery is also a weapon the Lions have been using exceptionally well. He has racked up 310 rushing yards and 4 TDs for the season, and alongside Gibbs, the Lions have looked impossible to defend. Since the Chiefs have a below average rushing defense, and rank 16th in red zone defense, we believe that Montgomery should get at least a TD in his name.
The Chiefs are excellent when it comes to their passing defense, but horrible when trying to stop the run attack. Looking at this, their defensive unit might be gearing up to contain Montgomery and Gibbs tonight, which would leave a player like Lions’ WR Amon Ra-St. Brown open. St. Brown has has accounted for 6 touchdowns this season, and is up to 407 receiving yards already. He’s been impossible to contain so far to start the season, and we expect no less from him in this game, where the lights will be shining the brightest.
Detroit Lions Moneyline (+120) + Patrick Mahomes 275 plus passing yards (+116) + Travis Kelce 5 plus receptions (-108)

The Detroit Lions have been excellent to start the season with a 4-1 record, and are on a 4-game winning streak. While the oddsmaker have them as underdogs in this game, we believe the Lions have more than enough to win the game. The Chiefs have been struggling heavily, especially against top teams in the NFL, losing against the Eagles, Chargers, and even the Jaguars. While Mahomes has been stellar, the rest of the team, not so much. With Kelce dropping passes, or Xavier Worthy unable to be open, or even their rushing offense that has been stagnant at times. The Lions on the other hand, do not have any of those problems on the offensive end, and if they can contain the Chiefs defensively, this game should be another victory for the Lions.
Pat Mahomes in the last two game has gathered 588 yards, against the Jaguars and the Ravens. When the game is close or getting out of reach, Mahomes tends to take it upon himself to make big plays, and in this game we believe that Mahomes will once again cross 275+ passing yards, if they start trailing early or if the game gets close. In Week 5 against the Jaguars, Mahomes crossed 300 yards on 70.7 percent completions rate, and we do not except that to change in this game. Also, the Lions are vulnerable against the pass, which could lead to Mahomes making his huge plays with his passing game.
Travis Kelce has had a slow start to his season so far, and he is yet to cross 100 receiving yards in a single game this season. However, he is still Mahomes’ go-to pass catcher and in the last two games he’s recorded 12 receptions, 2 more than the first three games combines. He caught 7 receptions in his last game and 5 in Week 4, and we expect him to at least catch five passes in the game against the Lions, where Detroit ranks 12th on passing defense.
Jahmyr Gibbs to score 2 plus TDs (+430) + Sam LaPorta 50 plus receiving yards (+124) + Patrick Mahomes 2 plus passing TDs (-205)

Jahmyr Gibbs, as mentioned earlier, is the Lions’ go-to offensive weapon and he is one of the reasons why the Lions are sitting at 7th in rushing offense, with 8 total TDs for the season. Looking at the Chiefs’ 21st ranked rushing defense, Gibbs is a threat to score 2+ plus TDs in this game.
Sam LaPorta is coming off a great game against the Bengals in Week 5, grabbing 92 receiving yards and a TD on his way to a victory. While LaPorta has gotten less touches this season, with 6 being the highest so far against the Packers in Week one, we believe LaPorta can cross 50+ receiving yards, since the Chiefs’ primary focus will be on stopping the rushing game of Gibbs and Montgomery, and also St. Brown on the receiving end, potentially making LaPorta wide open for catches.
Patrick Mahomes, despite the Chiefs’ struggles, has been great thus far and has eight touchdowns for the season, with 4 TDs against the Ravens in Week 4 and a TD against the Jaguars in Week 5. Looking at the Lions’ scoring defense, which ranks at 16th and the Lions 25th ranked red zone defense, we believe that Mahomes can score two or more TDs in this game.

Here are some of the best player props for this week’s game between the Chiefs vs the Lions, as per BetMGM
Jahmyr Gibbs is a threat to score at any given moment looking at the Chiefs’ rushing defense, ranking 21st, and Gibbs’ sheer volume of touches he’s gotten so far. Gibbs has been essential to the Lions’ success this season, and we expect the Lions’ to go right back at him to score at least one TD.
Jared Goff is having MVP caliber season so far, throwing for 1187 passing yards and 12 touchdowns already in just five games. In 3 out of 5 of those games, Goff has thrown for two touchdowns or more, and in the last two weeks, he’s thrown 5 TDs. Looking at the Chiefs’ inconsistent defense, it is safe to bet on Goff to score above 1.5 TDs for the game.
David Montgomery is one of the Lions’ go-to offensive weapons alongside Gibbs for their rushing offense and in 4 of 5 games, he’s at least had 11 or more rushing attempts in every game. If the Chiefs try to contain Jahmyr Gibbs, Montgomery will get more touches for the game and should be able to cross at least 9.5 rushing attempts.
Both teams are super bowl contending teams, with the Lions already on their way and the Chiefs trying to gather momentum as Week 6 is already here. While these two teams rarely see each other, they are some of the best teams from their respective conferences, and all eyes will be on this game, as we cannot wait to see who takes home the victory.
