Chiefs open as solid favorites over Washington in Week 6
The Washington Football Team has the unenviable task of facing the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 6, coming off a big loss. The most surprising aspect of this meeting is both teams enter this game with a 2-3 record.
Washington fell to 2-3 on Sunday after losing to the New Orleans Saints, 33-22, in a game that featured more defensive breakdowns for Washington.
The Chiefs lost their third game in four weeks, as the Buffalo Bills blew out Kansas City, 38-20, at Arrowhead Stadium.
To no one’s surprise, the Chiefs have opened as early 6.5-point favorites, according to Tipico Sportsbook.
It’s interesting Kansas City only opens as 6.5-point favorites, considering Washington’s defensive issues. But, the Chiefs have some defensive problems of their own as these teams are the worst two teams in the NFL in scoring defense.
The over/under opens at 55.5 points, which is the highest of the week. The smart money says these two teams surpass that number on Sunday.
