4* Money Maker
(NFL) Kansas City vs. Green Bay,
Point Spread: 7.00 | -110.00 Kansas City (Away)
Result: Loss
Taking KANSAS CITY here. I had the Chiefs in that epic failure last Thursday. Man, they literally gave that game away. The red-zone turnovers. Penalties. Charles slippery digits. A pair of TDs 9 seconds apart! It was a brutal loss. That being said, with extra rest and that looming over their heads, I expect a crisp game here, even in Lambeau. I know that GB gets an extra too. But they just had a huge win last week on Sunday night. Beating a Seattle team that they had on the ropes, on the road, with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. So maybe they are in a little let-down spot. I think that KC has the better defense. Even with Lacy 100%, I think Charles is the better back. Kelce is a match-up problem. The big anchor that nulls most teams chances is Aaron Rodgers. And lets be honest, Alex Smith is not remotely near this guy in talent. Oh we have the subplot. What if the Niners took A-Aron first and not Smith? That was 11 years ago. Let's talk about the now. Both teams have lofty expectations. Again, KC off a bad loss, I expect a big bounce-back here. How many people opened up the paper last week, saw GB -6.5, 7 and say to themselves. No way GB can't be KC by a TD! Did you how they beat up Seattle last night and the Chiefs choked at home vs Denver. I'm taking the points here and think this will come down to a late FG to win it. 4* Money Maker KANSAS CITY CHIEFS
