Patrick Mahomes II Week 18 Outlook - Chiefs at Raiders

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Jan 5th 2023, 1:05pm EST

Mahomes will be the highest-rostered quarterback on this two-game slate in DFS for a good reason. Mahomes is likely near the top in every statistical category, regardless of what leaderboard you peek at. Mahomes is second in PFF passing grade, fifth in fantasy points per dropback, fourth in yards per attempt, and sixth in adjusted completion rate (minimum 100 dropbacks). Mahomes should rip the Raiders apart through the air. Since Week 12, they have been 24th in passing yards per game, 19th in EPA per drop back, and 28th in explosive pass rate allowed.
