Let me continue to bang my head against the wall in the NFL. This is my first play for week 9......
5 STAR: Kansas City (-3) OVER TAMPA BAY
The Chiefs are on a roll and even though they are on the road, I think this number is way too low against a struggling Tampa Bay team. The Bucs defense is still good, but they are nothing like the dominating units of previous years, and they are below average at stopping the run this season, ranking #21st in the league in rushing defense. They will have a tough time stopping Priest Holmes and the Kansas City rushing offense that ranks #1 in the league at over 167 yards per game. Kansas City's defense might be one of the worst defensive units in the league, but they should be able to get some stops against the Bucs offense has struggled all season long averaging just over 15 points per game. This is the worst team that Kansas City has played all year and the Chiefs are 7-4 against the spread the last three seasons when playing a team with a losing record. Tampa Bay is a rested home dog, which is usually a nice play, but I don't see them breaking the momentum of a hungry Chiefs team that is making a push to get back in the playoff hunt. Lay the points here!
2004 NFL RECORD
10 STAR RECORD 0-1 (-11.0 UNITS)
5 STAR RECORD 3-8-1 (-29.5 UNITS)
3 STAR RECORD 7-5-1 (+4.5 UNITS)
2 STAR RECORD 10-12 (-6.4 UNITS)
1 STAR RECORD 6-3 (+2.7 UNITS)
OVERALL RECORD 26-29-2 (-39.7 UNITS)
A $100 player would be down $3970
