Reasons why the bolts will cover.
Bolts -5
- They are notorious slow starters. With DEN and OAK both losing, they can sit a top of the division with this win.
- Their GM is playing hardball with two stand out starters in McNeil and Jackson. The offense is under pressure to score and prove they can get the job done without those guys.
- Matt Cassel is the second runner up in the starting QB lottery behind Drew Brees. If Brady does not go down for the season 2 years ago, Cassel would still be holding a clipboard and Brady's jockstrap. Also if Lamar Hunt would quit hiring New England reject coaches they would be better off.
- The only bad thing is the spread as anything over 3 leaves the backdoor wide open. Hopefully this game is played with a 2TD lead as KC tries to play catch up all game long.
