Kansas City at Seattle

Kansas City won't play Patrick Mahomes, but backup QBs Gardner Minshew and Bailey Zappe are loaded with NFL playing experience. The Chiefs have very good depth everywhere, running for 92 yards in Week 1, a 20-17 loss at Arizona. Seattle is going to play the starters for one or two drives in this one. After Sam Darnold, the QB rotation is Jalen Milroe and Drew Lock. They come off a 23-23 tie at home against rebuilding Las Vegas. The thin defense was shredded for 392 yards (104 rushing). The Chiefs have the better defense, and their ground attack will control the ball and the clock. Play Kansas City + UNDER the total.
