00:00The Chiefs, when they need it, they got it, and that's exactly how it played out against
00:07the Bucs, though, as always, they didn't cover.
00:11So here we are again, Donnie, Kansas City's laying over a touchdown, money line, seven
00:17points or less, though, what do you think?
00:18They sneak it in right there, nine and a half is that opening number to look ahead down
00:21to seven and a half, and rightfully so, because that's Kansas City Chiefs football.
00:24I think one of the best, like, tweets I've ever seen was, boy, Kansas City plays every
00:28single game the exact same way.
00:30Do we need to score on this drive?
00:31Nah, let's not score.
00:32Do we have to score on this drive?
00:33Of course, five plays, 62 yards and a touchdown, no big deal.
00:36We do the two-pointer version?
00:37Yeah, let's get that, too.
00:38It just seems like that plays out.
00:40Now, it's a divisional game, it is a rivalry, but I gotta tell you, you're not supposed
00:43to have the eyescape for this game and say, hey, last week, Denver, or two weeks ago,
00:48Denver really fought hard against the Baltimore Ravens.
00:51They got beat so soundly by a good football team, and it's been a long time coming, because
00:56we were trying to believe if Denver was a legitimate playoff contender, or maybe even
01:00a legitimate, hey, you know what, we can catch you on a bad day and beat a really good football
01:03team.
01:04They got beat so bad, it's actually scaring me off going back to the Broncos.
01:07Bo Nix, rookie quarterback, on the road.
01:09But Kevin, again, I'll just throw it back to you quickly here.
01:12Is it just Kansas City's MO where you just say, what's the line?
01:15Six and a half?
01:16Okay, I can buy into that.
01:17What's the line?
01:18Seven and a half?
01:19Get out of town, there's no shot.
01:20Yeah, I don't know if I, man, it'll be a long time before I show up to one of these shows
01:24letting you know I'm lying over a touchdown with Kansas City.
01:28With that said, I actually do lean that way.
01:31I think watching that Baltimore thrashing, I mean, the fact is, we're watching Kansas
01:36City lay less, not by a lot, not by, you know, but less than we saw the Ravens do within
01:42that game.
01:43I stepped up here, though, and something that both you and I wanted to bet on Monday, but
01:48the number then moved a little too far when the weather cleared up, Pat Mahomes over one
01:52and a half passing touchdowns, lost money today.
01:55I think he's chasing the MVP because one of the big lies told by the people who backed
01:59this Chiefs team in the other, you know, media circles is that they don't care about style
02:05points.
02:06That is such a lie.
02:07Mahomes is so furious that he probably won't win MVP, but if he keeps winning games and
02:11keeps tossing touchdowns, he's got a legit shot, two straight games of two plus touchdowns.
02:16The Ravens just threw three against them.
02:18You saw actually Bryce Young in garbage time, get two up on this Broncos defense as well
02:23at a plus price.
02:24Joe, I'm looking for Mahomes to toss too.
02:26That's a good look.
02:27I really like Kansas City.
02:29I think they get, they get smashed the Broncos back to back weeks on the road and the teams
02:33that they have beaten guys, Carolina, the Saints, the Jets earlier in the year, pathetic
02:38offenses at that point, right?
02:40The teams that typically challenge the Chiefs and cover numbers, veteran or above average
02:46quarterbacks, right?
02:47Burrow, Baker, Mayfield, even Gardner Minshew, a veteran.
02:50I don't think Bo Nitz is going to challenge this defense over the top.
02:53He put up 223 last week, but again, they're going to have to run the football.
02:57It was ineffective last week, even though they rushed for 4.1 yards for carry, a lot
03:02came in garbage time against the Ravens.
03:04I think they shut down Javante Williams, forced him into long third downs.
03:08I don't know if we get to the total because I don't know if Sean Payton wants to play
03:12a higher scoring game to open it up.
03:15So that's why I like the Chiefs, but I'll go on to the total.
03:17I think they get absolutely abused today.
03:20Double digit win.
03:21But I do think I would lean more towards the over.
03:22The one thing we do know about Sean Payton is I think he's just going to throw it right
03:25like he can't.
03:26I don't think the game plan is to have Bo Nitz throw 22 times and see if he can stay
03:29into it.
03:30I just think he's opening up the playbook entirely all the way through.
03:32But the question mark always comes.
03:34Which side are you going to bet?
03:35Is it the Kansas City Chiefs team that goes, yes, did you see what the Ravens did to them?
03:38We can do the same thing.
03:39And to Kevin's point, sooner than later, you're in that MDP race and you're undefeated.
03:43You're like, okay, I'm used to throwing at least two touchdown passes a week.
03:45I'm not just going to slow play this thing.
03:47So I actually would lean towards the over because I think Denver is susceptible on defense,
03:51but I do think they'll chuck it, Joe, on offense.
