Offenses get the spotlight, but defenses could decide outcome of Chiefs-Rams showdown

There will be as much offensive firepower on the field Monday night as you’ll likely find in any NFL game this season. That can only mean one thing. One of the two defenses will decide the outcome by rising to the occasion.

The Chiefs (9-1) enter the weekend heading into their showdown at Los Angeles ranked second in the league in points per game (35.3) and third in yards per game (423.1), while the Rams (9-1) currently rank second in yards per game (448) and third in points per game (33.5).

Each defense will almost assuredly take its share of lumps from these explosive offensive units.
