The Chiefs host the Jets at Arrowhead Stadium in Week 9, with kick-off at 5:00am AEDT on Monday 9 November. Here’s our Chiefs vs Jets prediction, along with the best odds at Ladbrokes.
t’s become pretty clear that if you shut down Kenneth Walker, Mahomes can’t do much with this receiving corps. Walker managed just 2.6 yards a carry against Seattle and 3.3 against Denver, and KC lost both. That’s crazy considering how high we all had Rashee Rice on our fantasy draft boards this year.
Lucky for them, they take on the get-right team of the league. The Jets are on a three-game skid of their own with plenty of questions to answer. This Chiefs defence is still handy, fourth in the league at 18.7 points allowed a game, and I think it has enough to slow down Geno and the Jets. I’m expecting a Walker bounce-back too, because the Jets’ front seven is decent but won’t hold him down all day.
But here we are at Week 9, still waiting for the Mahomes magic to appear. He’s been able to rest that injury from last season on the back of the run game, and now he has to find some magic from receivers whose last name isn’t Kelce. I think this one’s tighter than we think, so I’m taking the Jets +10. Braelon Allen, fresh off 147 rushing yards against Vegas, joins Walker as a touchdown scorer.
