In the heart of NFL Thanksgiving tradition, AT&T Stadium hosts a marquee AFC-NFC showdown as the Cowboys vs Chiefs matchup lights up Week 13 of the NFL. Fresh off gritty comeback wins with Dallas edging the Eagles 24-21, and Kansas outlasting the Colts 23-20, this clash pits two teams that are desperate for a playoff spot. Patrick Mahomes makes his first-ever start inside the AT&T arena, marking the Chiefs’ Turkey day return since 2006, where they’re historically even 5-5.
Meanwhile for Dallas, Dak Prescott’s arm fuels CeeDee Lamb and a surging George Pickens (DNP with minor tweaks), while Travis Kelce eyes another holiday highlight. But Kansas City’s road woes (1-4) meet Dallas’ home dominance (3-1, five straight wins over KC). With the Chiefs chasing an 11st straight playoffs and Cowboys clinging to wildcard hopes, expect fireworks amid the feast.
Here are a couple of same-game parlays for the game between the Cowboys vs Chiefs as per FanDuel.
Dak Prescott 275+ passing yards (+148) + Patrick Mahomes 275+ passing yards (+102) + Dak Prescott over 1.5 passing TDs (-132)

Dak Prescott’s 275+ passing yards shines against KC’s 11th ranked pass defense (196.8 yards allowed), where he’s averaged 267.4 yards per game hitting 275+ yards in 7 of 11 starts, including 354 against a stout Eagles defense last week. With 2,941 yards (3rd in NFL) on 69.3% completion, he could exploit Chiefs’ road woes. And Pickens/Lamb duo draws coverage, fueling Dak’s volume in a potential shootout game.
Patrick Mahomes 275+ passing yards is a great bet against Dallas’ 31st ranked pass defense. At 270.6 yards (2nd in NFL) with 2,977 total, he’s topped 275 in 6 of 11 games so far, including 352 in their last outing against Colts. Cowboys conceded 19.1 passing FPG (2nd most). And with Rice and Kelce being a mismatch for Dallas’ defense, Mahomes could certainly cross 275+ yards.
Dak Prescott over 1.5 passing TDs is a great bet, as he’s tied for 2nd in NFL with 23 TDs, clearing 1.5 TDs in 8 of 11 games so far, six straight in last eight games. KC ranks 11th in passing yards allowed, and Prescott’s 2 TD bursts (like vs Eagles) thrive on play-action vs Spagnuolo’s blitzes.
George Pickens 70+ receiving yards (-136) + Rashee Rice 80+ receiving yards (+102) + Travis Kelce 70+ receiving yards (+154)
Parlay Payout: Wager $100 to win $717.46
George Pickens’ 70+ receiving yards looks primed against KC’s 11th ranked pass defense (196.8 yards allowed per game). He’s been on a heater in the last two games with 144 yards against Raiders in 9/11 catches, and a perfect 9/9 against the Eagles for 146 yards. With back-to-back 140+ yards explosion and Dak’s growing trust, could exploit Chiefs’ pass defense. Chiefs have shown a tendency to concede big yardage to receivers this season and Pickens may do that again in this game.
Rashee Rice 80+ receiving yards screams value versus Dallas’ 31st ranked pass defense, 2nd most passing FPG at 19.1. Post suspension, Rice has for over 80+ yards three times already, with his latest performance of 141 yards in just 8 catches. Given Dallas’ weak defense and Rice’s deep-ball threat, he can most certainly get 80+ receiving yards.
Travis Kelce’s 70+ receiving yards offers upside against Dallas’ TE nightmare as they’ve allowed 68 receptions (8th most), 3rd in passing yards conceded. At 61.3 yards, he’s surged 23 receptions, 299 yards, and 2 TDs over last 4 games, hitting 70+ in 4 of 11 games so far. Kelce is still one of the most damaging TEs in the league, and can most certainly explode against Dallas.
Here are some of the best player props for this week’s game between Cowboys vs Chiefs as per FanDuel.
Javonte Williams remains a volatile TD threat against the Chiefs’ stout defense, thanks to his explosive elusiveness and Dallas’ creative play-calling. With 8 rushing TDs in 11 games (career-high pace) and 75+ yards in eight outings, he forces missed tackles and thrives on short-yardage bursts. Chiefs rank last in explosive run prevention, vulnerable to Williams’ truck-stick power.
Rashee Rice poses a sneaky anytime TD threat against the Cowboys’ leaky secondary, which has surrendered 23 receiving TDs. Post suspension, Rice has erupted with 34 receptions, 394 yards and 3 TDs so far in 5 games, including a rushing TD. Dallas ranks 31st in passing yards vulnerable to his red-zone excellence.
Travis Kelce’s veteran savvy makes him a prime anytime TD bet versus Dallas porous TE coverage, conceding 24 passing scores overall (third-most). With 54 grabs for 674 yards and 4 TDs on 72 targets (12% of KC’s offensive TDs), he’s Mahomes’ red-zone security blanket with 14.1% targets shares there. His recent surge with 2 touchdowns in four games, makes us believe that he could get a TD against Dallas.

mma I cover the National Football League and things cannot get better than that. I always dreamed to play football or basketball professionally since I’m built like a Running Back.
