The reason the spread in this game is so close is that Patrick Mahomes is out for the remainder of the season, and Gardner Minshew hasn’t shown us how he will function in his first season with the Chiefs. Kansas City was already struggling to look like the team we’re used to seeing, and their loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 15 put them out of playoff contention for the first time since 2014.
The Titans are slowly starting to come together as a team, just in time for the season to end. They’ll play their best against the Chiefs, but the Titans’ lack of offensive weapons is a problem. Which is why the bulk of fans and analysts believe they will still lose.
Other experts and analysts from around the league like Kansas City, with 73 percent picking the Chiefs to win on Sunday, per NFL Pickwatch.
