A look at the keys to the Chiefs success versus the Bills in Week 6.

The Kansas City Chiefs are faced with what has become (for them) an unusual situation entering Week 6 of the NFL situation: they’re coming off a loss. Even stranger, many feel they are the underdog. Despite how rarely that has occurred in the Patrick Mahomes’ era, the Chiefs find themselves on the other side this week.

Kansas City will travel to Buffalo for an AFC showdown with the undefeated Bills next Monday night on another rescheduled prime time game (the game was initially set for Thursday).

After their performance on Sunday in a loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, it is difficult to find areas on the field where the Chiefs are definitively better, ones in which fans can feel supreme confidence.

Despite all of those realities, and despite being the road team, Kansas City is the betting favorite (-3.5) to win the showdown. If that comes to pass, what position matchups will be the biggest reasons why?
