Prior to last week, Kansas City was an amazing 7-1-1 against the spread but the trend may be reversing (as it often does) as they did not cover last week despite the win against Buffalo. This week KC is laying 3.5 on the road.
Seattle is really struggling on offense despite having the second-most accurate passer in the NFC in Hasselbeck (67% completion ratio). Kansas City’s high-octane offense has really slowed in recent weeks, averaging just 16.7 points per game over the last three versus 34.1 per game in their first seven.
Priest Holmes should have a big day but Seattle should also find some success against what remains one of the worst defenses in the league. I expect KC to win a close won or maybe even be surprised.
