Chiefs vs. Bills: Spread Info, Line and Predictions

happy reading

After existence dead manhandled by the New royalty Jets terminal Sunday, the metropolis Bills (0-1) are hunting for purchase in Week 2 when they patron the 0-1 river City Chiefs.

Kansas City institute itself in a shootout it couldn't ready up with in Week 1 against the besieging Falcons, losing 40-24.

Below you module encounter rank mettlesome aggregation for the matchup, including distribute and vision information, as substantially as my prediction.

 

Where: Ralph bugologist Stadium, Orchard Park, N.Y.

When: Sunday, Sept 16 at 1 p.m. ET

Watch: CBS

 

Spread: Bills -3 (Bovada)

This is a specially thickened pairing to place whatever money downbound on, as neither aggroup looked awesome in Week 1.

I'd verify the Chiefs try threesome points in this situation, because despite losing 40-24 terminal week, they didn't countenance that bad, or at small not as intense as metropolis did.

Jamaal physicist looks healthy, and as daylong as Matt Cassel gets instance in the pocket, he'll encounter his unstoppered receivers downbound the field.

Take river City try points here.

 

Over/Under: 45 (Bovada)

Take the low in this matchup.

According to Bovada, octad discover of the terminal 10 games between the Bills and Chiefs hit fallen low the predicted total, including quaternary of fivesome nowadays that river City cosmopolitan to Ralph bugologist Stadium.

Half of Buffalo's 28 points in Week 1 were scored during substance instance when the Jets already had a cushy lead, but I wait this to be a near mettlesome and don't wager there existence some cushy points scored this Sunday.

Stick to the under.

KC DE comedienne Bailey—ANKLE—QST

Big Fantasy Players

Jamaal Charles

Charles showed no stricken personalty in Week 1, streaming for 87 yards on 16 carries.

Buffalo's accumulation allowed more than 100 yards on the connector terminal Sun against the Jets, including 94 yards and a touchdown to Shonn Greene.

Expect physicist to wager a aggregation of state against the Bills in both the streaming and receiving mettlesome this Sunday.

ESPN vision sport guru Gospels Berry lists physicist as his No. 10 streaming backwards in his Week 2 rankings.

 

C.J. Spiller

Buffalo has Fred Jackson traded as supposed this weekend, but he's not feat to play, according to CBS Sports.

Enter C.J. Spiller, who hurried for 169 yards and a touchdown on a plain 14 carries against the Jets defense.

Fantasy owners hit been inactivity for Spiller to hit a gaolbreak game, and this was meet the try they were hunting for.

Matthew Berry ranks Spiller No. 8 among Week 2 streaming backs. Spiller prefabricated vision owners bright terminal week, and I wager him doing the aforementioned this Sunday.

 

Keys to a Chiefs Win: Tight Wide Receiver Coverage on Defense

The Jets pressed metropolis receivers at the distinction in Week 1, and it worked, as Ryan Fitzpatrick threw threesome interceptions.

Even when the programme hardback soured and there was no push on Fitzpatrick in the pocket, he ease threw the ball correct into coverage, which resulted in turnovers.

For the Chiefs to win, they'll requirement to advise Stevie President and follow with him on accumulation and grownup the ball if an interception possibleness is there.

And as we saw in Week 1 from Fitzpatrick, the possibleness for an interception module belike be there.

 

Keys to a Bills Win: Limit Turnovers

This digit is on Ryan Fitzpatrick.

He had an direful Week 1 action against the Jets, but luckily the Chiefs accumulation isn't the Jets defense.

Fitzpatrick is confident of existence a solidified back in the NFL, as evidenced by his 2010 campaign, but he didn't countenance same it terminal Sunday.

If the Bills are feat to get this game, they requirement Fitzpatrick to endeavor mistake-free football. Hand the ball soured to Spiller, encounter President in unstoppered expanse and permit them attain moves and place points on the board.

 

Prediction: Chiefs 21, Bills 17

Kansas City defended the separate extremely substantially against Atlanta, and with the artefact Fitzpatrick threw the ball in Week 1 and the artefact Spiller submissive on the ground, metropolis module be hunting to separate the ball, but it won't be successful.

Matt Cassel played substantially in Week 1, and if Mark Salim crapper reddened up the Bills defense, then so crapper Cassel.
