The Line:
KC - 2
Over/Under 46
Stats: TN pretty much gives up as much as it gets. Very similar stats across the board in terms of yards, scoring, running, passing, and even turnovers. They average about 6.2 yards per pass attempt and give up 7.3 yards per attempt.
KC averages about 8.3 yard per pass. But they give up about 8.8 yards per pass attempt. Overall, they have outgained their opponents by significant amounts this season. They have a million first downs and dominate in time of posession. Even with Holmes out, they can still run.
Turnovers: Virtually even. Both give it up about as often as they take it away.
Special Teams: D. Hall...enuff said. TN kickers are 14-19 in FG's. Rather lousy. Tynes has really been solid this year.
Coaches: Even. I like 'em both. Fisher is a solid coach and I think his guys are generally ready to play. Being at home will help. They've been decimated by injuries this year. Dicky V. may from time to time, but his players like him and I don't think they will give up. They were getting trounced on the road at Oakland last week and found the gumption to come back and win. I say both teams will put forth the effort tonight.
I think KC wins this in a close one. 27-24 or something similar. I like the chances of a KC win by 10 more then a TN win by 10 so I'll take KC and the 6 points.
As for the over, TN has averaged 23 a game their last 5 games....and that includes games against Chicago and Jax....two pretty good D's. KC averaging 27 points a game their last 5 games. They score on everyone.
