The Kansas City Chiefs will look to move to 8-1 this weekend when the Carolina Panthers come to Arrowhead Stadium.

Buckle up, Addicts. The Chiefs have one more game before their Bye Week and it is a sneaky tough matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Now, don’t get it twisted. The Chiefs are by far the better team here. They should beat the Panthers by at least a couple of scores and the Vegas spread reflects that, naming the Chiefs ten-point favorites last time we checked.

The Panthers are a lot like the Raiders. They’re not a great team but they have competent QB play and some weapons that can hurt the Chiefs. The big name the Chiefs will have to worry about on Sunday if he returns from injury will be Christian McCaffrey. McCaffrey is hands down one of the best players in the NFL and he represents the kind of home run threat that the Chiefs need to neutralize to prevent their opponent from making a game of it.

Don’t worry, though, we think the Chiefs are going to be ok. Dive into the latest Arrowhead Addict podcast as Matt Verderame and I preview the game and give you our final score predictions.
