Kenneth Walker, Kirk Cousins and Davante Adams carry the storylines as the Chiefs, Raiders and Rams play Sunday at 1 p.m., 4:25 p.m. and 8:20 p.m. ET.
Sunday's NFL schedule gives viewers three games with clear headline storylines. The Chiefs face the Dolphins at 1:00 p.m. ET, the Raiders meet the Saints at 4:25 p.m. ET, and the Rams take on the Broncos at 8:20 p.m. ET. Each game features a player storyline that has drawn attention ahead of kickoff.
The early window puts the focus on Kansas City's ground attack. Kenneth Walker has opened the season with 290 rushing yards on 47 carries through the Chiefs' first two games, production that has placed him at the center of the offense.
Miami's defense adds context to that matchup. The Dolphins have had trouble slowing opposing offenses this season, and Betr Picks has posted an 83.5-yard rushing projection for Walker in the game.
Las Vegas follows at 4:25 p.m. ET against New Orleans. Kirk Cousins carries a 212.5-yard passing projection on the platform, while the Saints have been strong against the run this season. Brock Bowers may return for the Raiders, a possibility the report links to the team's passing outlook.
The day closes at 8:20 p.m. ET when the Rams meet the Broncos. Davante Adams is the receiving headliner for Los Angeles, with his projection set at 74.5 yards, and he is coming off a game in which he caught eight of 10 targets for 195 yards and two touchdowns.
That performance came with Puka Nacua out of the lineup, and Nacua entered the weekend listed as doubtful on the injury report. Patrick Surtain of Denver is part of the matchup, and the report expects the Rams to keep working to involve Adams regardless.
The projections are published on Betr Picks, a pick'em-style app that posts player numbers and asks users to choose higher or lower. The service is open only in jurisdictions where it operates, and it restricts use to people 18 and older, with minimum ages of 19 in Alabama and Colorado and 21 in Arizona, Massachusetts and Virginia.
Betr Picks is also running a new-customer offer tied to the code YAHOOBONUS. It combines four No Sweat tokens with a free pick for as much as $210 in Betr Bucks. Each token covers a contest entry of up to $50, and losing entries are refunded in Betr Bucks up to $200 across the four tokens. The free pick covers the remaining $10, and a $10 minimum deposit plus identity verification are required to unlock the tokens.
Several conditions apply. Betr Bucks cannot be withdrawn, expire after 30 days and pay out one multiplier lower than cash entries. Players must also play through their first deposit before withdrawing any winnings. The offer is limited to new customers where the platform operates, is void where prohibited, and full terms are listed at betr.app; the report also lists the National Council on Problem Gambling helpline, 1-800-522-4700, for anyone concerned about their play.
