Kansas City Chiefs at Atlanta Falcons:
While the Broncos were on the losing end of last weeks overtime thriller, the Chiefs got their eighth win of the season, and a lot of people will be watching how they follow-up against the Falcons. Â Will they build on the momentum or will they have a let down? Â For the Broncos sake, I am hoping for the latter!
The Chiefs have obviously proved they can play on the road and in hostile environments.  Even though the Falcons play in a dome, which is typically louder, I don’t think the atmosphere in Atlanta will be a problem for the Chiefs.
I do think the 7-4 Falcons will be a problem for the Chiefs. Â Matt Ryan is definitely a top-tier quarterback and may have one of the better performances of the week. Â The Chiefs passing defense is ranked twentieth in the league allowing 260.5 yards per game. Â On the other side of the ball, the Atlanta Falcons passing offense averages 303.1 ypg, which is good enough to be the third ranked passing offense in the league. Â
With five weeks remaining, both the Chiefs and Falcons enter this game finding themselves in a dogfight for a division crown, as well as battling for playoff seeding. Â I am going with my heart on this one and hope the Falcons bring the Chiefs back down to earth by winning big, which would be a plus for the Broncos, assuming they take care of Jacksonville.
Prediction: Kansas City 21, Atlanta 41
