After two consecutive Sunday afternoon kickoffs, the Kansas City Chiefs (-9)
(2-1) are back in primetime to face the New York Jets (+9) (1-2) on Sunday Night Football in Week 4. The Chiefs enter the weekend as nine-point favorites, according to DraftKings Sportsbook.
That’s not what NBC anticipated when they scheduled this game; it was supposed to be a matchup of Chiefs’ quarterback Patrick Mahomes and New York Jets’ signal-caller Aaron Rodgers. Unfortunately, Rodgers tore his Achilles in Week 1.
It’s the third time the two legendary quarterbacks have had their teams match up without both players active.
