Week 11: at Kansas City Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs are another top-tier team that no one’s really talking about. It may be because the division they are in. With the Super Bowl Champions and the resurgent Oakland Raiders in the AFC West with Kansas City, it’s a difficult nut to crack. But, I think that’s exactly where the Chiefs want to be. Going under the radar but sporting top talent is what the Bucs should want to emulate.
The Chiefs are a very different team than the Bucs. They have a veteran head coach in Andy Reid, a game manager in Alex Smith, and an offense that doesn’t turn the ball over. Defensively they should have top pass rusher Justin Houston back and with ball hawk Marcus Peters and stud safety Eric Berry the Bucs have a tough task this week.
The Bucs are actually a better team on the road but Arrowhead is one of the loudest stadiums in the league and the Chiefs are definite contender this season. Tampa’s losing streak extends to four as the Chiefs take this one easily, 30-17. (3-7)
