KANSAS CITY:<\/h2>\n

Kansas City comes in as winners of its last four, having defeated the San Diego Chargers, Oakland Raiders, New England Patriots, and Denver Broncos over the last four weeks. The Chiefs boast the No. 3 ranked pass offense, as Patrick Mahomes cannon has led Kansas City to average 291.4 passing yards per game. The Chiefs rank just No. 24 in rush offense with 92.9 rushing yards per game, but its overall offense is the No. 4 scoring in the league at 28.1 per game. Additionally, the Chiefs have been tough on the defensive end, limiting teams to just 20.3 points per game this season.<\/p>\n

Mahomes has been sensational this season with 280 of 426 passing (65.7 percent) for 3,606 yards and a 315.8 yard-per-game average. He has thrown for 23 touchdowns with just four interceptions, and he has been sacked just 1.33 times per game. Mahomes\u2019 passer rating is 106.2. He also leads the team in yards-per-carry, with 5.4 yards standing as his rushing average on his 34 attempts this season. LeSean McCoy is the lead-rusher with 465 yards on 101 attempts and a team-best four touchdowns.<\/p>\n

But it is in the air that Mahomes really does the damage. His top receiver is tight end Travis Kelce, who has caught 86 passes for 1,131 yards and four touchdowns this season. The top wideouts are Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins, who have each caught 49 passes for 727 and 637 yards, respectively. Hill leads the team with seven receiving touchdowns, but he has fumbled twice (one not recovered). McCoy has fared well out of the backfield, too, having caught 28 of 34 targeted passes for 181 yards and a touchdown. The Chiefs have such talent at the skill positions and it has produced one of the NFL\u2019s top offenses.<\/p>\n
