The Kansas City Chiefs are looking to string together a pair of wins in Arrowhead Stadium. A win against the Green Bay Packers in Week 9 would see the Chiefs above .500 for the first time since Week 1. Despite Aaron Rodgers being ruled out of the game, beating one of the top teams in the NFC would also serve as a hopeful moment for a team that has struggled practically every step of the way this season.
With all that in mind, here are four things that we’ll be keeping an eye on during the course of the game:
Here are some of the things we’ll be watching for in the #Chiefs vs. #Giants Week 8 game:
The Kansas City Chiefs are coming off of one of their worst losses since Andy Reid arrived as head coach of the team back in 2013. It’s hard to expect that they’ll do anything less than respond and perform better on “Monday Night Football” against the New York Giants in Week 8. Will the bright lights of prime time provide an opportunity for this team to get back on track or will they simply bring more attention to this team’s deficiencies?
Here are four things that we’ll be keeping an eye on during the course of the game:
Here are some of the things we’ll be watching for during the #Chiefs vs. #Bills Week 5 game:
The Kansas City Chiefs are set to face off against the Buffalo Bills in the confines of GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium during Week 5 of the 2021 NFL season. The team got back in the win column against the Philadelphia Eagles on the road the week prior. Can they carry over the progress they made against some tougher in-conference competition? Josh Allen and the Bills are out for revenge after Kansas City handed them a loss in the AFC title game last season.
There are several things that could shift the tide of this game in or out of the favor of the Chiefs. Here are three things that we’ll be keeping an eye on during the course of the game:
The Denver Broncos have started the 2021 season with a 3-0 record, but the team hasn’t received much respect because their opponents are 0-9 combined through three games.
The Broncos can earn some respect this week when they host the Baltimore Ravens, a team widely considered a playoff contender in the AFC.
Here are five things to watch for when Denver hosts Baltimore in Week 4.
The #Chiefs are in Baltimore to face the #Ravens on Sunday Night Football. Here are some of the things we’ll be watching for during the game:
The Kansas City Chiefs are on the road for the first time of the 2021 NFL season with a prime-time matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
In what has become an annual tradition the past three seasons, these two top teams in the AFC conference will face off early on in the season. The Chiefs are coming off a close Week 1 win over the Browns, while the Ravens are coming off of a disappointing overtime loss to the Raiders.
The first few weeks of the NFL season typically include some roller-coaster games as teams have little tape to prepare for the newest iteration of their opponents. These two teams, however, are quite familiar with each other and they have a pretty good idea of what works and what doesn’t work. Baltimore especially knows what doesn’t work against Kansas City after going 0-3 against the Chiefs during the Patrick Mahomes era.
With all of that in mind, here are a few of the things that we’ll be watching for throughout the game in Week 2.
Five things to watch and a prediction for the Packers’ Week 1 matchup with the Saints.
The Green Bay Packers will attempt to win the team’s seventh straight season-opening game when they travel to Jacksonville to play the New Orleans Saints in Week 1 on Sunday afternoon.
The Packers haven’t started a season 0-1 since 2014. Last season, Matt LaFleur’s team knocked off the Minnesota Vikings on the road in Week 1 and then beat the Saints in New Orleans two weeks later to start 3-0.
Can the Packers get off to another hot start in the Florida heat and humidity on Sunday?
Here are five things to watch and a prediction for Week 1:
The Denver Broncos’ 2019 season will draw to a close against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday. Here are four things to look for in the game.
Though any season that doesn’t end with a trip to the playoffs is often a major disappointment, there will still be plenty to watch for when the Denver Broncos face the Oakland Raiders in the season finale on Sunday.
First off, it’s the Raiders. Throw the records out the door — this is one of the league’s oldest and greatest rivalries. Should the Broncos hand the Raiders a defeat, it will get the offseason started on the right foot.
The 2019 season got off to a terrible start for the Broncos following a humbling defeat in the season opener against the Raiders on Monday Night Football. The team would like nothing more than to return the favor.
Here are some other things to keep track of.
1. Phillip Lindsay’s search for 1,000 yards

Lindsay has been terrific in his first two seasons with the Broncos and though 1,000 yards rushing isn’t what it used to be, it’s still the benchmark for NFL running backs.
With 42 yards against the Raiders, Lindsay would crack the 1,000-yard mark for the second season in a row. He would become the first undrafted player in NFL history to do that and the first Broncos running back to accomplish that feat since Clinton Portis did it back in 2002-03.
2. Justin Simmons playing every snap

How many NFL players have played 100 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the last two seasons? Not many.
Simmons has a chance to do that if he plays every snap against the Raiders on Sunday. He didn’t miss a snap last year and so far, hasn’t missed one this year.
Just another reason for the team to re-sign him to a new deal as soon as possible.
