5 bold predictions for Chiefs against Packers

The Chiefs will win 21-17

Despite concerns over Patrick Mahomes’ play this year and even knowing how the Chiefs’ defense has struggled all year, Kansas City is a bigger favorite in this one than you’d expect. WynnBet has KC favored by a touchdown.

The Packers bested the undefeated Cardinals on the road last week despite missing key players like Davante Adams, David Bakhtiari, Allen Lazard and others. Why couldn’t they get the job done this week without Aaron Rodgers?

The difference is the importance of the quarterback position. Jordan Love probably wouldn’t have picked Arrowhead for his first career start if he had a choice. He’s skipping the frying pan and getting thrown straight into the fire.

The Chiefs are a flawed team this year, there’s no doubt. The Packers are a better team right now. Having said that, one side has Mahomes and the other has Love. An improving Kansas City pass rush and some bright signs from the rushing attack will give the team a significant boost as well.
