The
Chiefs became the first team this season to put a dent in Green Bay's armour,
winning 19-14 at home over the Packers as big underdogs. Kansas City is now 6-8
straight up and 8-6 against the spread on the season.
Kansas City's
defense held the Packers scoreless in the first half of that contest, and
Aaron Rodgers only managed to throw for 235 yards and one
touchdown in a rare off-day.
Kyle Orton went 23 of 31
for 299 yards passing for the Chiefs against Green Bay, with no touchdowns and
no interceptions. Kansas City got their major score off a Jackie
Battle one-yard rush in the fourth quarter, and Ryan
Succop booted four field goals on the day.
The Raiders blew
their game against the Lions over the weekend, allowing two late touchdowns to
fall 28-27 at home and drop to 7-7 on the season. That prevented Oakland from
making up any ground on the Broncos (who also lost) in the AFC West
race.
Carson Palmer went an efficient 32 of 40 for 367
yards passing for Oakland in Sunday's loss, with one touchdown strike and no
interceptions. Darrius Heyward-Bey had eight catches for 155
yards and a score in the contest.
Kansas City blanked Oakland 28-0 on
the road when those teams met for the first time this season back in Week 7,
with the Raiders favored by 3.5 points on the NFL lines that day. Palmer and
Kyle Boller combined for six interceptions for the Raiders in
that defeat.
The Raiders, though, are 3-2 both straight up and against
the spread in their past five games against the Chiefs, with the UNDER paying
off in four of those five contests.
