Point Spread: 7.00 | -110.00 San Diego (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the San Diego Chargers.
Setting the scene: The Chargers were only 4-12 last year, but many still feel that the team has the best QB in the division with veteran Philip Rivers under center. The Chiefs have big plans this season with their eyes on the AFC West title, but we think Andy Reid's team is due for some regression.
San Diego: With Rivers directing the show, the Chargers will have a "punchers chance" in any game. He'll need Melvin Gordon to step up this season though. San Diego struggled defensively last year but made many off-season moves to address the issue.
Kansas City: The Chiefs had an 11-5 season and won their first playoff game in 22 years. Kansas City though comes in off a rough offseason which saw them lose Justin Houston for at least six months, while also losing a 6th and 7th round pick due to a tampering scandal. QB Alex Smith is back to direct the show, while the offense will be in a "wait and see" pattern when it comes to RB Jamaal Charles, who tore his ACL last season. The Chiefs are strong defensively, last year they'd give up an average of just 17 points.
The bottom line: With a tough game at Houston next week, we think the Cheifs come in a bit flat footed, leaving the back door open just enough for Rivers and the hungry CHARGERS to sneak through.
