Mahomes is best when he’s willing to gamble and take risks
Yeah if you want a QB who never throws an interceptable pass, you wind up with Alex Smith when he goes into turtle mode. [Reply]

The DL also got a lot of pressure at times, but I think a more mobile QB than Carr would have handled it better.
More mobile and with a better feel for pressure. [Reply]

It’s gonna come down to containing Mack and Bosa. Do that and I like our chances. If not it’s gonna be a long night. [Reply]

The Chargers will badly miss Niemann and Sorensen. [Reply]
Here is the where the money is at...12 pm gameday. Spread went up to 4.5 from 4 last night.
96% on the game being over 54 points, 77% on KC winning by more than 4.5. The BIG factor is % of money bet...which say 96% of all dollars is on KC.
This is interesting as 44% of the point spread is on LA but only 23% of the money.
Money is what's ultimately important...not percentages.
From a strictly casino vantage, the most points the Chiefs can score by while still maintaining both the 96% o/u and 77% spread is 28...while the Chargers scoring 24. Anything under that 28 gets the job done for Vegas as long as there is not more than 4 points between the team.
Chargers can score as much as they want in a win...as long as the total points dont exceed 53
Looking at the data...the odds of a low scoring game are extremely high. 96% of the money is insane...Vegas will lose it's ass if KC blows them up.
This has potential funny business written all over it...when the outcome HAS to go a certain way and work within narrow parameters. It's completely lopsided.
28-24 is the perfect score for Vegas...if KC wins. [Reply]
If the Chiefs come out with 1/2 the focus they did in AZ they will win by double digits. I think that was the most in sync first game I have ever seen out of the Chiefs and a road game no less
Chiefs 39 Chargers 10 [Reply]

Didn’t we have like 4 or 5 turnovers and several key players out? And still barely lost?
