The Kansas City Chiefs head into their Week 4 home matchup against the New England Patriots as big betting favorites.

The Kansas City Chiefs (3-0) beat up on the Baltimore Ravens in front of a national audience on Monday Night Football in Week 3 to prove they’re still the class of the NFL. They’ll host the New England Patriots (2-1) in Week 4 at Arrowhead Stadium with a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff in the marquee matchup of the week. Below, we take a look at the early Week 4 betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

The Patriots are coming off an authoritative 36-20 home win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. RB Sony Michel was the star with 117 rushing yards on just nine carries. QB Cam Newton threw for 162 yards with one touchdown and an interception.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, already with a regular-season and Super Bowl MVP to his name, had one of his best games as a pro in Week 3. He completed 31 of 42 passes for 385 yards and four touchdowns to four different targets, with another score on the ground. The Chiefs beat the Ravens 34-20 after going to overtime against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 2.
