Chiefs (+) over Patriots- Well, here we go another NFL season opener with the Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots hosting an AFC rival that were a playoff team at 12-4 last season. When comparing these two clubs it all starts and ends at the quarterback position. Tom Brady turns 40 years old this season and brings 5 Super Bowl rings, 14 AFC Division titles and has played in 12 Pro Bowls where the Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith is still looking to complete a pass to a wide receiver. The 'numbers' are overwhelming when you realize that Brady is 101-17 at Gillette Stadium and have won 24 in-a-row against non-division AFC foes. Although Kansas City brings things to the table as well they have never won at Gillette. What the Chiefs bring is a mistake free offense managed by Smith and coached by Andy Reid who is 7-0 straight-up and ATS against the AFC East and he is 17-9 ATS in September. Add that Reid is 12-3 ATS as a dog of 8-points or more. Take KANSAS CITY!
