    Chiefs Will Probably Only Play Starters one or two Series

    Kansas City is the only playoff team locked into its seed as the five in the AFC, so they are the only team as of now to treat this week like a preseason game. That may change with 4:00 ET games, but probably not considering it looks like the NFL got it right by playing the more meaningful games late and games with correlation simultaneously. Back to KC, Reid always pulled or rested his starters in this situation while at Philly.

    I'm on Chiefs 1Q then. If they are only going to play a couple series they will play hard.

    It's likely(Miami and/or Balt winning early game) that SD will be deflated, as they'll be eliminated from playoffs. KC scrubs playing all out should be able to stay within 10 of deflated SD starters.

    Gotta love Week 17, Chargers line will probably drop if Ravens or Dolphins win early. It's like you can't handicap just one game a lot of the time.

    Either Dolphins or Ravens should win one of the early games. I wouldn't touch this game unless Raven and Dolphins both lose, in which cas I would take the Chargers

    Glad I saw this I was about to go with Chargers. So lets say both lose, you think SD will go higher than 9.5 then?

    Why bother playing 1 or 2 series? If they're benched, then bench them.

    CIN ML + NYJ ML + SD LINE should have some correlated value.

    Can NYJ really pull off the upset though?

    They could. Tannehill is not anything to fear.

    Yeah me too, because if either Miami or Baltimore(please) wins, then San Diego is out. Who knows how they will play.

    San Diego will win regardless of the results in the Miami/Balty games.

    Nice pick-up, although I'll never play in a league that uses Week 17.

    Week 17 is the only week of the year where oddsmakers don't know what to do. Out of all the games on the board, the SDC/KC is by far and away the best and laying the 10 with San Diego is the absolute way to go.Year after year, you get games like this (normally more than one) when a team is locked into a playoff spot and has nothing to play for. Oddsmakers can't hang a high enough number to reflect the reality that KC will lose by at least 20. SDC-10 is about as high as they can go.

    Take advantage of the situation and bet SDC -10.

    LT, how do we know what SD will do? They may lay down after seeing Baltimore or Miami win. With a line of 10 pts to swallow, that is ridiculous, even if KC is not playing all starters. This is time for the B team to shine to make it in the starting role.

    I don't and I don't even have a play on this game. I was just pointing out what the Chiefs are going to do in case someone didn't know and was wondering why they are such big dogs.
