They’ll both look to bounce back in the game that could have heavy implications on the AFC’s final outlook.

The Buffalo Bills opened as +3 underdogs but as their blowout loss was nationally televised a lot of money came in on Chiefs so the line now is at +4.5. The total line was steady most of the week and stands at 57.5 at the moment reflecting the offensive potential of both teams.
Thoughts On The Kansas City Cheifs Winning
The Chiefs were on the wrong side of the biggest upset of the season so far as they lost to the Raiders after being -12.5 favorites at some point. In a very weird game, The Kanas City Chiefs took a first-half lead and looked to be on the way to another dominant win, but Las Vegas put together a 30-3 run and managed to hold on until the end of the game. There were issues on both sides of the ball with the defense allowing more than 20 points for the first time this season and Patrick Mahomes being sacked three times. The Bills will provide a stern test for the Chiefs as they look to prove that last week was just a blip on the road to another Super Bowl.
Patrick Mahomes is still the first name on the fantasy sheet and even though he played his worst game of the season last Sunday, he still managed to throw for 340 yards and 3 touchdowns. RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire was also disappointing, but he’ll be extra motivated to cement his starter status as the Chiefs signed Le’Veon Bell earlier this week. Another decent option is TE Travis Kielce who was back to his best self against the Raiders and will face the defense allowing 16 fantasy points to tight ends per week.

Thoughts On The Buffalo Buffalo Winning
The last week’s gamewas bad for the Bills across the board. QB Josh Allen struggled to get going and the Tennessee Titans exposed all the defensive flaws that have been present all season. The Chiefs boast a much more potent attack than the Titans and the defense is probably in for another long night. As we saw last week the offense won’t be able to cover the defensive issues in each game and without significant improvement in this area, the Bills may start to slip down the rankings.
Josh Allen is still a very young player and it remains to be seen how he will react to the last game’s dud so it may be the best to stay away from him in this week’s fantasy lineups. RB Devin Singletary was disappointing against the Titans and with Zack Moss probably returning, his fantasy value is about to take a serious dip. WR Stefon Diggs remains the most reliable fantasy pick among the Bills.

NFL Betting Pick: Kansas City -4.5
Even with the line rising to -4.5, it’s hard to see Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid not taking advantage of Buffalo’s defensive struggle and covering the spread, especially since the Chiefs will be extra motivated following the last week’s loss.
