Key Stats
Kansas City Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs are one of two undefeated teams this season and are coming off a bye. The last time we saw the Chiefs in action, they defeated the New Orleans Saints 26-13. Patrick Mahomes completed 28 of 39 passes for 331 yards and one interception. The story of the game was Kareem Hunt. Hunt recorded 102 rushing yards and a touchdown on 27 carries. Back like he never left. JuJu Smith-Shuster had his best game of the season, catching seven passes for 130 yards. If the Chiefs’ offense is to continue their winning ways, they must be efficient through the air.
The Chiefs’ defense has been the story of the team dating back to last season. This season they rank 6th in points allowed per game, 20th in passing yards allowed per game, 5th in rushing yards allowed per game, 2nd in offensive touchdowns allowed, 26th in sacks, and 24th in takeaways per game. Led by Chris Jones, who leads the team in sacks with three, this is one of the best defenses in the NFL. If this defense can continue their production, they can make the best offenses look subpar.
San Francisco 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers are coming off an impressive win against their division rival Seattle Seahawks 36-24. Brock Purdy completed 18 of 28 passes for 255 yards and three touchdowns. Despite Jordan Mason being injured against the Seahawks, their running game didn’t miss a beat. Isaac Guerendo was exceptional, rushing 99 yards on ten carries. George Kittle had his best game of the season, catching five passes for 58 yards and two touchdowns. Deebo Samuel Sr. was great as well, adding three catches for 102 yards, including a 76-yard touchdown.
Defensively, they have not lived up to their names, but they have still been a solid group. On the season, they rank 12th in points allowed per game, 17th in passing yards per game, 7th in rushing yards allowed per game, 14th in offensive touchdowns allowed, 12th in sacks, and 6th in takeaways per game. Without Javon Hargrave, it’s going to have to be a Nick Bosa/Fred Warner game to slow down the Chiefs’ rushing attack. We saw them have success in the Super Bowl, but can they defend their home field against the Chiefs in this rematch?
Prediction
The Kansas City Chiefs are going to win this game against the San Francisco 49ers. Andy Reid is almost unbeatable off a bye, with a record of 31-7 and 3-0 against Kyle Shanahan. This is a big-time game and the Chiefs step up in big-time games. I expect Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and the Chiefs to go into Levi’s Stadium undefeated and leave undefeated. It may not be pretty for the Chiefs, however, they play winning football. It doesn’t matter if it is 13-10 or 31-28, this team finds ways to win and I think they will do so come Sunday.
Final Pick
Kansas City Chiefs ML (-102)
