Kansas City enters at 5-0 after handling the winless Los Angeles Chargers 22-6 last Sunday. Patrick Mahomes earned his 100th career win as the Chiefs were listed as 7.5-point home favourites, completing 23 of 30 passes for 272 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. Kenneth Walker III paced the offence with 128 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries, and Kansas City limited Los Angeles to 259 total yards (186 passing, 73 rushing) while recording four sacks and forcing two turnovers.
Seattle heads into the matchup at 3-3 after dropping a 17-14 overtime decision at the Denver Broncos on Oct. 15, falling for a second straight week. The Seahawks were credited with 353 yards to Denver’s 168, but Seattle committed three turnovers compared with none for the Broncos. Quarterback Sam Darnold was sacked five times, going 27-of-51 for 278 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions.
