Chiefs Underdogs in 5 Games This Year
 
Didn't see this anywhere. Maybe bet the over? (9)

http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2017/5...-in-all-others

Cantor Technology has released the point spreads for every Kansas City Chiefs game (via ESPN) this year and I count five games where the Chiefs are underdogs. They are favored in all the other games. The Chiefs underdog games are all on the road, which makes sense. I don’t really have any qualms with these lines.

The Chiefs are a touchdown underdog against the Patriots in Week 1 and a 1-point ‘dog in Houston. They are 3-point ‘dogs at Oakland but 3-point favorites when the Raiders visit Arrowhead.

Outside of New England, the Chiefs longest odds are at Dallas where they’ll play the Cowboys. We’ll see about that one because I’m not convinced the Cowboys are as good as they were last year.

The rest of the lines sound about right to me. I’m kinda surprised they’re not bigger favorites hosting the Eagles in Week 2 - 4 points. They’re also a 1.5-point favorite over the Steelers after last year’s playoff loss.

Underdogs: at Patriots, at Texans, at Raiders, at Cowboys, at Giants

There are no Week 17 odds yet in case a team has clinched and sits their starters or something like that.

so they put us favored to win 11, but the O/U for season wins is 9?

I have no idea how common that is. Might be pretty normal. I'm not much of a betting man. I'm sure someone here can explain.

I think that's spot on. It's an 11-5 team with that schedule, and good health.

I actually think they beat Dallas and the New York Giants, while they might lose to teams like Pittsburgh or Los Angeles.

How can you set this when it's so far out.

I saw they had Pittsburgh to go 14-2 this year with the two losses to KC and NE

Well it's just a starting point, right? I'm sure it will change significantly as surprises start cropping up once the season gets underway.

The receivers for the Chargers are going to be tough. Allen,Benjamin,Williams

Chargers fan?

Not saying you are wrong, just assuming you might be since that was your first post.

If we go 11-5 (losses without significant blow outs) and somehow are healthy in the playoffs, we are contenders for the SB.

Well, as long as the Pats aren't playing on a God-like level again.

They look legitimate. And their defense looked improved halfway thru the season.

How can anyone be a Chargers fan with Phillip "Crybaby" Rivers? Can't stand him.

Looks like they left off the last game against the Broncos

Article says it's in case someone clinched and is resting starters.
