Game Prediction
The talk surrounding Kansas City after Week 1 was about the Chiefs’ offense. But, in a rare twist, the discussion wasn’t about how to stop it but how to get it going.

Eight dropped passes, including one that was intercepted and returned for a touchdown, highlighted the Chiefs’ 21-20 loss to the Lions. On the other hand, with the possible return of tight end Travis Kelce, there’s reason to expect a big return to the dominating offense of seasons past.
But the Jaguars are viewing this as a benchmark game for their franchise. And a win today would not only send the defending champs to an 0-2 start, it would ramp up talk of Jacksonville being a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
Both Trevor Lawrence and Travis Etienne were sharp last week, and although they will face a Chiefs’ defense that should have All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones back, I’m expecting this to be a close game.
So, if you can get an extra half-point, I say take it.
Best Bet: Jaguars +3.5 (-118 at DraftKings SportsBook)
