2007 was the worst season in 19 years for the Kansas City Chiefs as they went 3-13 on the season. The Over/Under line on the Chiefs for the 2008 season is 5 ½ wins.

When you handicap season win totals you must, I mean must look at the schedule.

Schedule:

Playing in the AFC West the Chiefs have 2 games against San Diego, Oakland and Denver. Oakland will improve this season and Denver is under pressure to win after undergoing their first losing season under Mike Shanahan last season. They wont win a game against the Chargers this season. The Chiefs will be fortunate to win 1 game in 6 games against their division. To cash for over players they would need to go 5-5 against the rest of their schedule. They play the NFC South this season but host the top 2 teams in the division in Tampa Bay and New Orleans and travel to the weaker teams in Carolina and Atlanta. Ideally for over players you would want to host the weaker teams making it easier for victories. The Chiefs play all teams from the AFC East but must travel to a weak team in that division with a road game against the NY Jets. Only week 16 against Miami looks like a game you can circle with a win but that’s it.
