You know what time it is.
With the Kansas City Chiefs coming off their bye week, it’s time to hear all week long about how incredible head coach Andy Reid is with extra time to prepare in the regular season. Reid has been lauded for many years about his offensive creativity and preparation skills. It’s no secret these characteristics are even more impactful after a week off.
In 21-plus combined seasons with the Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, Reid’s teams are 18-and-3 off the bye. And he’s made you money at the window. According to Rotoworld’s Edge Finder, Reid’s teams have covered 14 of those 21 games (67%). A $100 bettor is up over $600 riding Reid in this situation.[[ad:athena]]
PointsBet Sportsbook is dealing Kansas City as 6.5-point favorites at Las Vegas with a total of 57.
“Andy Reid is one of the most creative coaches in football,” PointsBet senior sports analyst Andrew Mannino told NBC Sports. “His offense is always exciting and given an extra week to prepare, it’s no wonder he’s been so successful. We will take these kinds of trends into account, but will focus much more on recent performance and statistics than long term trends, which could be attributed to a number of factors.”
Kansas City will also be seeking in-season revenge if you believe in that sort of thing. The Raiders upset the Chiefs 40-32 as a double-digit road underdog last month. Derek Carr passed for 347 yards and three touchdowns in the shootout at Arrowhead Stadium.
Including their run to a Super Bowl last year, the Chiefs have covered 14 of their last 18 games.
