Kansas City Chiefs (11-5), Indianapolis Colts (11-5)

This game is a battle of the quarterbacks. Kansas City’s Alex Smith is having one of the best seasons of his career and Indianapolis quarterback Andrew Luck just knows how to get the job done. Since both quarterbacks are weapons it will depend on which defense can do themselves to together in order to stop a great quarterback. If the Chiefs focus on rushing yards this game, the Colts defense may not be able to stop Kansas City from winning this game. However, throughout history the Colts have won against the Chiefs and I do believe history repeats itself but this time these teams are a true match. Kansas City Chiefs have a great road record of 6-2 and Indianapolis Colts has a great home record of 6-2.

Most sportsbooks have this game as “pick” given no team an edge or given the Colts a 1 point favorite to win. I believe the safe bet here is the Indianapolis Colts to cover the spread. My prediction for this game is it will be a close game but the Colts will beat the Chiefs. It may even come down to a field goal but isn’t every great game of football?
