AAA's 10* *Chiefs/Vikes* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER (11-2 w/ 10* NFL L4 Sunday!)
(NFL) Kansas City vs. Minnesota,
Total: 43.00 | -108.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a 10* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER on the OVER between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Minnesota Vikings.

For a couple of different situational reasons, we expect this total to eclipse the posted number as the game comes down the stretch. The first reason is because the Chiefs' starting RB Jamaal Charles has been lost for the rest of the season, meaning that Alex Smith and Andy Reid will be forced to open up the playbook and consistently take shots down the field. Smith finally hit Jeremy Maclin to break the wideout shutout streak, we're expecting the veteran to have a productive afternoon despite scuffling by going 16 of 30 for a season-low 181 yards last week. Minnesota though could obviously care less about the Chiefs' issues, it comes out of its bye well rested and ready take full advantage of the situation. This is the second reason why we feel the total will soar above the number. Teddy Bridgewater will definitely have some opportunities today, Kansas City has struggled both against the run and the pass. One other player to keep your eyes on today is Vikes' RB Adrian Peterson who has 341 yards over his last three games. Note that Kansas City has seen the total go OVER the number in all three road games so far this season, while Minnesota has seen the total sail above the posted number in two of its last three as a home favorite in the 3.5 to 9.5 points range. In our professional opinion, all signs do indeed point to the OVER as the savvy move in this contest.
