Arizona Cardinals @ Kansas City Chiefs (-16.5)

The Arizona Cardinals are terrible. They have some players on defense, but not enough to make it a good unit. The offense is even worse. This team has scored more than 20 points once this season.

On the other side, the Kansas City Chiefs scored less than 30 points once this season. The Cards may have some good players on defense, but they don’t have enough to cover Tyreek Hill, Sammy Watkins, Travis Kelce and Kareem Hunt. In fact, no team has that much talent on defense.

This seems like a no brainer. The only thing that could get in your way is the Chiefs getting bored with this matchup. They may let the foot off the gas, and the Cards could get a backdoor cover. While that is a possibility, it’s not likely.

New England Patriots (-6.5) @ Tennessee Titans

When former Patriots take on their former teams as head coach, the results are mixed. Bill O’Brien lost in Week 1, while Matt Patricia took his former team to the woodshed. Here, we see Mike Vrabel taking on his former team for the first time as the head coach of the Tennessee Titans.

In his first season there, the Titans have had mixed results. There were massive lows, like when they were shut out by the Baltimore Ravens, and big highs, like last week’s win against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. They are unpredictable.

The Patriots are playing in November. This isn’t the September Patriots that could dominate one week and lose big the next. This is the Patriots playing in stride. Marcus Mariota and the Titans offense just doesn’t have what it takes to win this matchup.

New England 35 Tennessee 21
