Result: Win
This is a 6* play on the Minnesota Vikings.
The Chiefs have been brutal during a 1-4 start to the season, and things have gone from bad to worse with the news that Jamaal Charles will miss the remainder of the season with a torn ACL. This puts even more pressure on Alex Smith, who has been taking a beating all year behind a struggling offensive line. He threw for 180 yards and a TD on 16-of-30 passing last week, and it wasn't good enough as the Chiefs lost at home to the Bears.
The Vikings are 2-0 at home, and Adrian Peterson ran for 260 yards and a pair of TDs in those two games. Peterson and the Vikings are coming off a bye week, so they should be well rested and well prepared for this banged up Chiefs team.
Minnesota quarterback Teddy Bridgewater threw for a season high 269 yards in a 23-20 loss at Denver in his last start, and he might have a big day this week, facing a Chiefs secondary that ranks 26th in the NFL against the pass. The Vikings defense has been very solid, ranking 4th in the NFL against the pass, allowing just five TDs while picking off opposing quarterbacks four times during a 2-2 start.
Take MIN.
