2024 STRATEGY FOR NFL SGP PICKS
As always, when betting on NFL odds, be sure to shop around. But when dealing with SGPs, that importance magnifies. In our research for this season’s strategy, we sometimes found the same SGP at double the price vs. other betting apps:
SGP machines offer lower payouts than the fair odds on correlated same-game parlays.
One example of an uncorrelated SGP that apps may have trouble pricing is a tailback with high red zone usage for potential touchdowns but low rushing volume overall for high-end yardage totals.

Smarter Same-Game Parlay: Texans at Chiefs
We used BetMGM Sportsbook for these NFL SGP picks. However, I strongly recommend price shopping when building your SGPs. If you only have one or two sportsbook accounts, now is a great time to open more and lock in extra NFL promo codes as the postseason looms.
This week, I’m looking to take advantage of the uncertainty surrounding Patrick Mahomes’ ankle injury sustained last week. Or, I should say, the lack of uncertainty. Let’s get into why:
NFL SGP Picks for Texans-Chiefs: +575
- Patrick Mahomes OVER 32.5 pass attempts (-130)
- Travis Kelce ATD +200
- Texans +3.5 (-110)
Like clockwork, Mahomes appeared to suffer an ankle injury that potentially jeopardized the Chiefs’ postseason success. In Cleveland, Mahomes’ ankle was rolled up and did not complete the game. However, he was a full participant at practice all week long.
Considering the ankle may be ginger, expect Andy Reid to get the ball out of Mahomes’ hand as quickly as possible Saturday with ample short throws, especially with a ferocious Texans’ pass rush bearing down. An uptick in short, quick completions should see Mahomes attempt over 32.5 pass attempts, which he’s done in eight straight games and 10 of the last 12.
The Texans are tied for seventh in the NFL in touchdowns allowed to tight ends (six) despite a below-average reception share (57, 28th). Travis Kelce stands alone atop TE red zone targets (21) and tied for second in targets inside the 10 (nine). Only two of those 21 red zone targets were converted, but with a higher propensity to give up scores to the TE from Houston and Mahomes, who likely wanted to get the ball out quicker, I’m looking for Kelce to find pay dirt Saturday.
BetMGM says 72% of the money this week is on the Chiefs as of Friday morning. That’s a bit misleading, though, as the Chiefs were priced from +2 (when Mahomes was uncertain to play) to -3. Now, KC’s stagnated at -3.5.
Aside from a lifeless Browns offense that saw them turn to QB3, the Chiefs don’t run away with games. Four of their last five finished within this number, including against the 3-11 Panthers, 2-12 Raiders (division rival, notably), and 9-6 Chargers.
