00:00It was Chiefs pick them against the Houston Texans two days ago with the news that Patrick
00:07Mahomes is going to play that thing just shot right back up.
00:10It is Kansas City minus three and a half coming up on Saturday.
00:13What's interesting for me here, Matt, is the total is just 41 and a half points.
00:18I would say not so much because of Kansas City, but because of Houston, Matt, like Houston
00:24has had just such trouble scoring this season.
00:27Joe Mixon's had a really nice year for them, and it feels like, at least for me, that D'Amico
00:31Ryans has just basically said he's the only thing that is consistent.
00:35Let's just keep giving them the ball.
00:36You know what happens when you run the ball.
00:38These games tend to go under.
00:39Yeah, for sure.
00:40And that's the way I look at this classic sort of ugly Saturday matchup.
00:44I don't think two teams that you know are bound for the playoffs, obviously with Patrick
00:48Mahomes banged up.
00:49I don't think we're going to see the Chiefs putting their foot on the gas pedal a lot.
00:54They're going to do what they do, and that's just enough to win.
00:56If that's the case, the Texans aren't a horrible team by any means.
01:00They're going to win their division again, but they also just haven't been a great team
01:03this year.
01:04And like you said, they run the ball really well.
01:06Joe Mixon's been really good.
01:08And then they're getting some good situational red zone play at times with Nico Collins stepping
01:12up.
01:13They might get the occasional tank down big play, but for the most part, that offensive
01:16spark just hasn't been there like it was last year with CJ Stroud for whatever reason.
01:21He's capable of it.
01:22That's why, you know, if you were an under better, I think you'd, you know, you got Patrick
01:27Mahomes and CJ Stroud in the same game.
01:28I think you're going to be a little worried till that final whistle.
01:30But at the same time, this game just looks like it's set up to be low scoring.
01:34And like you said, that total is very low.
01:37But at the same time, I just, I just don't expect a lot of fireworks.
01:40I mean, Kansas City had trouble with, with Cleveland last week, and it's not as if Patrick
01:45Mahomes was injured at halftime.
01:46He wasn't injured until well into the second half.
01:49And they still sort of just limped along and did what they had to do.
01:52And they won the game and moved on with their lives.
01:55And over betters were left trying to pick up the pieces of theirs, I guess.
