The Kansas City Chiefs are currently 5-2 in the 2022-23 regular season after emerging victorious past San Francisco 49ers in their Week 7 showdown. With each of their marquee player working hard to secure their latest win, it seems like this team will have the much-required time off, being the best in the respective division at the time of writing.
Kansas City Chiefs have their ‘bye week’ in Week 8, which has undoubtedly come at the best time for the numero uno team of the AFC West. In simpler terms, this means that while other teams will be contesting against each other, Patrick Mahomes and Co. will have the much-required time off in the middle of the season.
To those who are not aware, bye weeks in the NFL ensure that one team doesn’t play in a game i.e. there is scheduled matchup for the same team. This is the fate of Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8.
Who will Kansas City Chiefs face in their next matchup?
Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs will be locking horns against the Tennessee Titans after their week off. What’s even more impressive? The Chiefs bulldozed past the top-ranked DeMeco Ryans’ defense in their previous matchup.
They register a tally of 44 points from the San Francisco 49ers on the road and improved that number to 1.38, creating an even bigger gap between them and other NFL offenses. Marquee Quarterback – Patrick Mahomes’ EPA per drop back when kept clean is 0.59, 0.20 points better than any other quarterback in the league.
That being said, the team from Kansas are looking in great shape and form to avenge their loss from the previous playoffs. Will they be able to get into the right rhythm to challenge the like of Philadelphia Eagles well before time? Remains to be seen.
