Monday Night time Soccer: New Orleans Saints at Kansas Metropolis Chiefs open thread

Week 5 of the NFL season wraps up with the New Orleans Saints (2-2) taking over the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs (4-0) on Monday Night time Soccer. That is the primary Chiefs recreation with out star receiver Rashee Rice, who’s out for the season with a knee harm. Kansas Metropolis is 4-0 however with all wins coming by one possession, whereas the Saints are 2-2 and with the final two losses coming by a mixed 5 factors.

New Orleans’ high-flying begin on offense has given approach to extra pedestrian outcomes, largely resulting from accidents on the offensive line. The OL accidents aren’t going away and the versatile Taysom Hill is out with injured ribs, so it is perhaps robust sledding for the Saints in opposition to Kansas Metropolis’s protection.

Patrick Mahomes is Patrick Mahomes, however the Chiefs offense is banged up at working again and large receiver and never been convincing. Even Mahomes has thrown a sloppy interception in each recreation this season. Nonetheless, FanDuel Sportsbook has the Chiefs as a 5.5-point favourite with an over/underneath of 43.5 factors. I just like the Saints to cowl however the Chiefs to win, and the underneath to hit. Kansas Metropolis is inevitable till its not.

ESPN has the kickoff at 5:15 pm PT.
