Well, we know one team will have a little bit of a chip on their shoulder coming into Sunday.

I shocked the Chiefs are not favored, actually.

Back up qb for Chefs and trying to draw money to an obvious side.

This is a pick em to me. Take the under all the way to the bank.

Yeah, I don't understand what Vegas is thinking here.  But, they have guys that put together these numbers that are smarter than you or me.  So, whatever.

Vegas lines are not about what they think the score will be and more about what they think they can get people to bet at.

Ah, Panthers favored by 3 though?  If anyone has watched this team, we're clearly not any better than the Chiefs.

We're against an injured Chiefs team for the most part, with role players for both sides out. If Spencer Ware is still out, and everyone else, expect a rough outing for them against Carolina at home.

Also, last year when the Cowboys were favored by 1, that was hilarious.  Vegas must've put all their money on the Cowboys fans being morons.

Early money on Panthers to setup a better value on the KC pick later. We're should not be favored.

I'll be at the game, but I'm keeping a close eye on the injury report for KC.

Not completely crazy with their starting QB, RB, and #1 WR being out...and knowing how stupid some of the NFL's policies are, they might even suspend Kelce for throwing his towel like a flag at the ref yesterday.

[Floppin]

Probably just cause they want to get some action on the chiefs side of the bet under the expectation of the betting being panther heavy.

[pantherphan96]

isn't homefield advantage worth 3 points in Vegas? still surprised that they would have this as a toss up.

[Randolph Panther]

We will cover the spread easily I think
