Weeks 9-12
If Cam Newton was a healthy starter for the Panthers Carolina may actually have a chance to keep this close, but Christian McCaffrey and Teddy Bridgewater can’t keep up with the Chiefs’ juggernaut by themselves. Kansas City cruises to a 31-13 victory.
The Chiefs won’t go undefeated in the AFC West after losing in Las Vegas 28-24. The Raiders’ improved defense does just enough here to slow down the Chiefs and give Las Vegas a much-needed divisional win.
The latest meeting between Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady will be epic and the fact it is on the road helps Tampa Bay. The Chiefs have a more complete team and that makes the difference in a 31-24 win.
