The Kansas City Chiefs made a big statement in primetime in Week 1, and they'll remain in that slot but on a different day in Week 2 when they host the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football. The Chiefs, who got Patrick Mahomes back after he tore his ACL late last season, steamrolled a Denver Broncos team that won 14 games a year ago behind new signing Kenneth Walker's 173 rushing yards. The Colts experienced a similar frustration in Week 1, letting Ravens running back Derrick Henry rush for 144 yards and three touchdowns in Baltimore's 41-23 win.

Colts vs. Chiefs anytime touchdown scorer props
- Jonathan Taylor (-145)
- Xavier Worthy (+205)
Jonathan Taylor (-145)
Lost in the Henry hoopla from Week 1 was the fact that Taylor had a strong day with 121 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. Even though he lost a fumble, Taylor was productive in an otherwise tough effort for Indianapolis' offense. Taylor scored 17 of his 20 touchdowns last season before Indianapolis' bye week in mid-November, so he often starts seasons strong. Kansas City's run defense was excellent in Week 1, but Taylor can also be a factor in the receiving game. Even though he hasn't scored a touchdown in two games against Kansas City in his career, Sunday seems like a good time to end that drought.
Xavier Worthy (+205)
The Colts might've let Henry get loose in the run game, but they also didn't stop the pass much with Zay Flowers registering 150 yards and a touchdown on just five receptions. Worthy was bottled up in the opener with just 18 yards on three catches, but this is a defense that can give up big plays to speedy receivers in a hurry. The Chiefs might not have wanted to let Mahomes sit back against Denver's pass rush and let deep routes develop, but they might be more willing to chance it against the Colts. Mahomes didn't air the ball out much in the opener, and while he still might be getting his feet underneath him, at some point he'll have to start cutting it loose. Expect Worthy to have a few opportunities for a home run play.
