The Kansas City Chiefs took a blow when they lost Jamaal Charles for the season with a torn ACL. Many may have forgotten that likely replacement Knile Davis ran for consecutive 100+ yard games last season, so I think the Chiefs will be ok. The Chiefs did also make some headway last week on defense as after allowing 30+ in three straight games, they held the Bears to one score, but faltered as many NFL teams do in a prevent defense, and Chicago scored on each of their last two possessions. The Vikings have some issues of their own with their top two receivers in Wallace and Johnson both ailing. This could put the Chiefs into a situation where they can sneak another man in the box to try and limit Adrien Peterson. The Vikings have not taken advantage of their bye week, as in their last five they have come out flat, and have been 0-5 ATS. Play the points on Kansas City.
