Schule's TNF Broncos vs. Chiefs *BLOCKBUSTER* (+$25,414 L272 NFL)
(NFL) Denver vs. Kansas City,
09/17/2015 4:25 PM, Score: 31 - 24
Total: 42.00 | -104.00 Under
Result: Win
Total: 42.00 | -104.00 Under
Result: Win
This is a 5* play on DEN@KC to go OVER the total.
The Broncos are coming off a home win over the Ravens that didn't see much in the way of offense. This has people pretty down on Peyton Manning, who struggled at the end of last season and throughout the pre-season. I think it may be a little too early to count out one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of the game. To be fair, Denver jumped out to an early lead in that game, and they were never playing from behind.
Also, the Bronco's conservative approach came as no surprise to me, here is what I said prior to the game: "I think this Denver team is going to have a different look in 2015. Rather than depending on Peyton Manning to carry the offense with an all out air attack, I expect more of an emphasis on the running game."
The total in this game seems far to low considering the short turnaround off a late game on Sunday. Traditionally we have seen teams struggle to execute on defense with less time to prepare for an upcoming opponent.
The Chiefs offense showed flashes of greatness in the pre-season, and they executed well in a 27-20 win over the Texans in Houston in Week 1. Alex Smith threw for 243 yards and three touchdowns on 22-of-33 passing.
These teams have gone under in three of the last four head to head meetings, but the total was at least a touchdown higher in all four of those games. They scored 40+ points in all four of those games, and only once did they fail to score more than the listed total for tonight's game.
Take OVER.
