The NFL’s prime-time Christmas Day matchup between the Broncos and Chiefs certainly lost some of its luster when Patrick Mahomes went down with a season-ending injury, but there are still reasons to think Thursday’s contest could be entertaining – at least from a betting perspective!

If looking for a fun way to sweat Thursday’s holiday action, I have put together a three-leg same game parlay (+650) for the evening’s game. As always, it is worth noting that straight wagers are a far more profitable long-term betting strategy than parlays. Still, parlays can be a fun way to get some extra action on a game to make things interesting!

Denver Broncos @ Kansas City Chiefs Same Game Parlay

Leg 1: Evan Engram Under 3.5 Receptions

-174

During Denver’s last three games, Evan Engram has played only 74 snaps, compared to 125 snaps for Adam Trautman. During that span, Engram hasn’t seen more than 4 targets or played more than 28 snaps.

The Chiefs defense is going to be in rough shape Thursday, with so many players on injured reserve, but Engram simply hasn’t been on the field enough to justify this number being so high.

Leg 2: Chris Oladokun Over 29.5 Pass Attempts

-108

Kansas City hasn’t had an explosive run in either of the last two games, and that doesn’t figure to change much during their final couple of contests, given how much of their offensive line is on injured reserve. Thursday in particular, they will have to face a strong Denver run defense. The likely consequence of having a non-existent rushing attack against a good defensive front is that Chris Oladokun should be very busy through the air on Christmas Day – especially if the Chiefs are facing a negative gamescript, which is expected.

Leg 3: RJ Harvey 70-Plus Rushing Yards

+174

In Week 16, Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears combined to gain 154 rushing yards on 34 attempts (4.53 yards per carry) against the injury-depleted Chiefs defense. On Christmas, RJ Harvey will get his turn to see if he can put up some gaudy numbers.

Harvey has been the clear lead option for Denver’s ground attack since J.K. Dobbins went down with a season-ending injury in Week 10. Since that point, Harvey has received 67 of the 94 attempts that have gone to the team’s running backs, including 16 of 20 red zone carries.

If Harvey can break a big run or two Thursday, he could be well on his way to cashing his alts.
