Coming off a massive prime time let down against Denver. Green Bay coming off an emotional prime time revenge win against Seattle. Green Bay likely playing without Lacey and god knows who else.
Andy Reid one of the better coaches when he has extra time to prepare (they played Thursday night). Back-to-back prime time game for KC (no one likes losing in prime time 2 weeks in a row)
Jamal Charles fumbled the game away last week...look for him to be hungry and run angry...I'm thinking 150 yards rushing...7 points is way too much!!!!
Take the Chiefs for my game of the week.
Blue horseshoe loves the Kansas City Chiefs.

I see both of these teams going into the SUPERBOWL. :)
Anyways! The last time these two played, Aaron Rodgers couldn't be stopped. Aside from last years game, these two teams become different, One team (Packers) defeats the best team in the NFC, and Another team (KC) gets defeated by the best team in the AFC.
So being it at home, GB will play it laidback (play catchup) against their AFC team. The only time GB plays well, is when they play NFC North and just keeps scoring.I expect this to be a back and forth game in the air. Expect this to go over with a KC cover.

I'm a Packers fan but I don't see them winning by a TD. I see them winning but more like by 4 or 5 points. No Nelson, no Lacy, no Adams (no Bulaga) means their drives will be more deliberate just as they were in both of their first two games. The KC defence is pretty good actually. Alex Smith isn't going to light it up but Jamal Charles probably will against a defence that has yet to convince me that it can stop the run. I expect more field goals and fewer touchdown and a close game.

I know it's GB at home, but the spread seems to high, KC is a damn good team also
KC +7
I'm not saying your wrong but what has K.C. done this year to be called a "damn good team"??? They barely beat the Texans and they lost to Denver at home...And they playd good against Denver but K.C. at home n K.C. away are 2 totally different teams am I right?

They didn't "barely beat" the Texans. Don't let the final score fool you. KC will be playing with a chip on their shoulder. Manning only knew how to beat them because of his century of experience playing the Chiefs franchise. Rodgers won't know what hit him. Every time Rodgers plays a stout defense, he folds or sneaks out a win. He'd rather shoot it out with a defenseless team. 7 is too many.
KC+7, 6.5, 6... JUST DO IT

"Going back, the Packers have won 31 of their last 32 regular-season home
games in which Rodgers was the primary quarterback."
Not to mention a double check true and tried Super Bowl champ under the home "Prime Time" lights. Colonial, you sir are one brave mutha F-er. Maybe that liquid courage is helping you here.

They've had 8 days to practice without Lacy and a month to practice and play without Nelson. Other guys can run and catch Aaron's passes, he's the hero here, the others were just lucky enough to be on the same team as him.

Week 3 somehow sticks in my mind is a week the Chiefs decide that they are going to play very, very hard. And sometimes they not only cover in week 3 they win the games outright. It's weird. There was a time when the Chiefs were 12-1 ats in week 3 games. Astonishing. How could I pass up on getting 6 points with that kind of history. I know your answer gumpert but I'm a trend bettor. Lets add 2 more reasons why I'm losing my money on the Chiefs. A long time ago they were moneymakers coming off a loss in September. And they do pretty well ats in the first of back to back road games. Throw in the fact that they used to do ok ats vs teams coming off a dd su win. I'll probably get my head handed to me gumpert but I have to take the Chiefs. Finally the words Super Bowl and Green Bay are being thrown around way too early in the season. Like Lee Corso says "not so fast my friend"
GL Amigo may the force be with you.

There's always some asshat on here who can't resist correcting others. Adams was only recently upgraded from questionable to probable, genius. But, since Adams really hasn't has that much of an impact this year I stand by my original post. GL to all.

I am very tempted to take KC here, but it's extremely hard to bet against Rodgers and the Pack at home- where they haven't lost since november of 2013.
With that said, I see a very tight game here, coming down to a field goal or a few points. I don't like the value of taking the Packers ML or spread and here's why-
1. Since 2010, the chiefs are 3-1 playing on Monday night. This is very significant, as playing on national TV messes with some players/teams nerves. It seems that KC seizes these moments and loves the spotlight. Last year, they rolled the eventual Super Bowl champ Patriots 41-14 on Monday night. Also, the chiefs are one of 2 teams in the NFL who haven't ever lost at Lambeau (3-0)
2. Packers have a few keys players out/playing with injuries. As we all know, Jordy is on IR, but they also lost starting tackle Brian Bulaga last week for 6 weeks. Starting RB Eddie Lacy is questionable with his ankle injury and WR Davante Adams is probable, but dealing with an ankle injury. The bottom line is that the Pack aren't at full strength.
3. The chiefs DL is tied with the Rams for the most sacks so far this season. With starting tackle Bulaga out, we will see lots of pressure from Houston/Poe and co. Rodgers thrives when under blitz pressure, with a passer rating of 146.8 (2nd best in NFL) but the chiefs will get to him tonight without the blitz. I see them giving rodgers trouble all night, and the entire defense (which is 5th best in the NFL at allowing only 4.85 yards per play) showing up under the spotlight.
4. Jamaal Charles will be looking to get past his costly performance last week and tear up the packers defense which has allowed an average of 154 rushing yards per game (2nd last in NFL).
5. Overall, the chiefs are 7-3-1 against the cheeseheads and after the extremely disappointing loss to the Broncos last week, look for them to play very competitively tonight against the Pack.
My advice is to take KC on the spread

Injuries catch up to Green Bay in this one. Excellent KC pass rush going against a banged up GB line will force Rodgers to throw on the run and without the chemistry he and Jordy have he will struggle to find open receivers when plays break down.
Chiefs +6.5
