A Super Bowl LIV rematch is on the NFL Week 7 schedule as the Kansas City Chiefs take the trip to Levi’s Stadium to take on the San Francisco 49ers. The Chiefs won that Super Bowl in the fourth quarter, however it is the 49ers who appear to be the team more likely to make a Super Bowl run out of the two this season. Here, we give bettors a Chiefs vs 49ers parlay for this matchup of elite franchises.
The reason the Niners appear to be a legit championship contender is their midweek trade to acquire star running back Christian McCaffrey from the Carolina Panthers. McCaffrey – one of the best dual threat running backs in the NFL – will add even more short yardage options in the Niners playbook to a team that already possesses the dangerous Deebo Samuel.
McCaffrey’s status is up in the air for Sunday as it is a quick turnaround to get him involved in the Niners gameplan and caught up to speed on the playbook. As a result, this game has an added wrinkle of difficulty when handicapping Niners player props as there is an unknown element of if McCaffrey will steal touches this week or not.
Luckily for the dear reader, we have you covered with three of the best bets for this huge Super Bowl rematch between the 49ers and the Chiefs in a Same Game Parlay.
Pick 1 | Chiefs Moneyline (-134) |
Pick 2 | Jimmy Garoppolo Over 247.5 Passing Yards (-130) |
Pick 3 | Patrick Mahomes Over 284.5 Passing Yards (-114) |
Chiefs vs 49ers Parlay Odds | +444 (Bet $20 to win $95.65) |
Pick 1: Chiefs Moneyline (-134)
The Niners will make a deeper run in January than the Kansas City Chiefs but aren’t likely to get Super Bowl LIV revenge on Sunday over Mahomes and co. Barring a shocking amount of short notice production for McCaffrey, the Niners don’t quite have the firepower on offense to match the Chiefs just yet.
Where the Niners could do damage is in the pass rush as the Chiefs defense has given up 3+ sacks in the last two games. Nick Bosa is ‘pretty optimistic’ he will return to the Niners pass rush and could cause some havoc against a Chiefs offensive line that gave up two sacks to Von Miller last week.
Even if the Niners defense does make some plays, the Kansas City offense should quickly bounce back like they did against the Las Vegas Raiders. Simply put, the Niners offense is not good enough yet to back them to beat a Chiefs team that expects to put points on the board every single possession.

Pick 2: Jimmy Garoppolo Over 247.5 Passing Yards (-130)
While he waits on Christian McCaffrey to join the backfield, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo looks to continue his steadily rising play at quarterback. Garoppolo threw for 250+ yards and two touchdowns in each of the Niners last two games and looks comfortable after replacing Trey Lance early in the season.
The Chiefs secondary remains weakened compared to last season and has given up 300+ yard games in two of the last three. The quarterbacks for those two games were Josh Allen and Tom Brady to be fair, but the opportunities will be there for Garoppolo to make plays on Sunday and if he makes enough throws going for 250 on Sunday won’t be much of a sweat in this Chiefs vs 49ers parlay.

Pick 3: Patrick Mahomes Over 284.5 Passing Yards (-114)
Mahomes appears to have found his groove the last two weeks, throwing for 294 yards in the second half comeback against the Raiders in Week 5 before going off for 338 yards in the loss to the Bills last week.
The Niners are known for having a stingy defense and as a result, Mahomes passing yardage is reasonably a bit lower than last week. Still, the best quarterback in the league is dialed in and should move the ball well enough to clear the over on Sunday.

Chiefs vs 49ers Preview
San Francisco will return four starters to their roster on Sunday to take on the Chiefs. Pass rusher Nick Bosa and left tackle Trent Williams will be back, along with defensive back Jimmie Ward and right tackle Mike McGlinchey. Getting help in the trenches will be huge for Niners quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who will welcome the return of Williams and McGlinchey.
Unfortunately for the Niners, some key names are also likely to be absent this week. Arik Armstead, Talanoa Hufnaga and Charvarius Ward all haven’t practiced this week and if they are out, the lack of their presence could significantly weaken the Niners defense.
Kansas City has the top scoring offense in the NFL yet again as the Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid combo remains scary good. The Chiefs are averaging 29.8 points per game as we inch close to the halfway mark of the season.
The Chiefs have looked good on the road this season. Kansas City has outscored opponents 102-72 in their three road trips of 2022 to date, a +30 point differential.
