A Dallas Cowboys home game is always on the menu for Thanksgiving Day.<\/p>\n
And while family and friends chow down on turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes this Thursday, I\u2019m feasting on Rice… Rashee Rice.<\/p>\n

The Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 shifty receiver is primed for a standout performance against the Dallas defense, and I\u2019m banking on a big play for Turkey Day.<\/p>\n
Here are my best Chiefs vs. Cowboys predictions and NFL picks for November 27.<\/p>\n
Chiefs vs Cowboys Best bet:<\/strong> Rashee Rice longest reception Over 24.5 yards (-115)<\/p>\n Rashee Rice didn\u2019t waste time finding his place upon return to the Kansas City Chiefs offense in Week 7. In his five games back from suspension, he\u2019s amassed just shy of 400 yards, with 259 of those gains coming after the catch.<\/p>\n Rice averages 7.6 YAC per reception (tied for eighth highest) and takes on a Dallas Cowboys defense that has allowed foes to pour on the YAC like gravy, surrendering the fifth-most yards after the catch on the year.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n \u201cI mean, I’m not the biggest guy on the field, and I’m usually in the middle of the field, so I got big guys chasing me the whole time,\u201d Rice told reporters about his ability to pick up extra yards after the catch. \u201cAnd there’s nothing like making 1-5 happy (Patrick Mahomes) when you complete a catch and turn up the field.\u201d<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, Rice is also an elite receiver versus zone coverage \u2013 something the Cowboys run at a Top-6 rate. And not very well, I should add. Dallas has allowed 34 completions of 20 yards or more and sits tied atop the NFL in passing plays of 40-plus against with 10 \u201chome runs\u201d on the season.<\/p>\n Rice is always a threat to break off big gains. In five games, he has seven completions for 20 yards or more and two of 40-plus, including two big catch-and-run receptions in the comeback win over the Indianapolis Colts last weekend.<\/p>\n He\u2019s had at least one reception of 25 yards or more in three of his last four games, and if we go back to the injury-shortened 2024 campaign, Rice has topped a long of 25-plus yards in six of his last nine outings overall.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n MORE NFL FREE PICKS<\/p>\n Kansas City is pretty much playing for its playoff life each week. Dallas is in a tough spot, playing its third game in 10 days on Thanksgiving Thursday.<\/p>\n Rice is an elite receiver versus zone schemes and will pick apart a dreadful Dallas defense. His projections sit as high as 86 yards receiving.<\/p>\n Kareem Hunt is the trusted running back in the red zone and getting the goal-line touches.<\/p>\n Regulated sports betting launches on December 1 in the Show Me State, but pre-registration is officially open now \u2014\u00a0and there is $1,800 more value in welcome bonuses available now\u00a0<\/strong>compared to waiting until the end of the month:\u00a0Sign up now!<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n \ud83d\udd0d Learn more about Missouri sports betting 21+.
