After dropping their first game of the season in a 21-20 nail-biter of a loss to the Lions, the Chiefs have once again jumped out to be one of the top teams in the league. They have rattled off three-straight wins including a 41-10 blowout of the Bears and last week’s little too close for comfort, 23-20 win over the Jets.
In that win at the meadowlands, Patrick Mahomes threw for a season-low 203 yards and two interceptions, marking his first multi-pick game since week 13 of last year.
We have seen a slightly different style from Mahomes this season as he's relied more on his running ability and is on pace to shatter his personal best for rushing yards in a season. He managed to take the Jets for 51 yards on the ground including a 25-yard run on a 3rd-and-23 in the fourth quarter that helped seal the win.
Chiefs’ tight end, Travis Kelce has been grabbing headlines for his off-the-field relationship with pop icon Taylor Swift, while this year his relationship with Mahomes is off to a slow start. He missed the Chief’s opener with a hyper-extended knee and has struggled to find a rhythm with his quarterback. Kelce is on pace for career lows in receiving yards and yards-per-catch, averaging just 9.1 YPC. In each of his previous nine seasons, Kelce has never averaged less than 12.2 yards a reception.
The Vikings may be just what Mahomes, Kelce and the rest of the Chiefs’ passing game needs.
Minnesota’s defense is the third-worst passing defense in the league, allowing opposing quarterbacks a passer rating of 111.1 on the year and they have allowed the second-highest completion percentage (76.6%).
Offensively Kirk Cousins has the benefit of throwing to the league’s best wide receiver in Justin Jefferson who has reeled in 543 yards through the air, putting him on an incredible pace to be the NFL’s first-ever 2,000-yard receiver.
The biggest problem for Cousins and company is the turnover battle. Minnesota has given the ball away an NFL-leading 11 times this year with Cousins throwing four interceptions and charged with a fumble lost.
Draft Kings has the Chiefs as 3.5-point road favorites against the Vikings. The over/under is 52.5
