Chiefs Betting – Kansas City look to snag first preseason win against Green Bay

Step right up and get your Kansas City Chiefs betting in Thursday night when Head Coach Todd Haley’s squad partakes in its final preseason tune-up against the Green Bay Packers; kick-off is set for 8:00 ET from Arrowhead Stadium.

NFL Betting Online: The Kansas City Chiefs will look to snap a seven-game losing streak both SU & against the closing NFL odds in the preseason under the Todd Haley regime when they welcome the Packers into Arrowhead for the final match-up of each team’s preseason campaigns.

The Packers look to be well on their way towards representing the NFC North as either the division or wild card winner after putting forth an impressive showing in each of their three exhibition battles played to date.

QB Aaron Rodgers and the first team offense were electric if not spectacular against the Indianapolis Colts last week at home where they buried Manning and company by a 59-24 final tally. The 35-point victory saw them easily cover the closing four-point spread, and the combined 83-points shattered the 44.5-point closing number.

All three of Green Bay’s exhibition battles have surpassed the ‘total’ with relative ease, as the Packers have averaged scoring 36.7 PPG while giving up 25 PPG.

Rodgers tossed three TDs and converted 72 percent of his passes for 195 yards in what was most likely his final showing before the Packers line it up against the Philadelphia Eagles on opening day. Instead, look for backups Matt Flynn and Graham Harrell to get most of the snaps with the back-up slot yet to be determined.

Another race still to be determined comes in the RB corps where the back-up slots are still up in the air. The Packers come in ranked 8th on the ground chewing up an average of 124.3 YPG in the exhibition season. Look for RBs Kregg Lumpkin, Brandon Jackson, and Quinn Porter to share most of tonight’s snaps.

Numerous defensive starters sat out last week’s home game, and it wouldn’t be shocking in the least if they were all held out of this one as well.

Though Kansas City is yet to scratch the win column, it’s gotten progressively better with every passing week; in terms of offensive points production that is.

QB Matt Cassel threw his second TD of the preseason at home last week against the Philadelphia Eagles, but also tossed his first interception. The passing game has been absent from the Chiefs attack averaging just 161.7 YPG (#29) in three games.

It wouldn’t at all be shocking to see Cassel get some playing time in this one since the coaching staff by no means can be satisfied with what they’ve seen thus far. If he does get a couple reps, look for backups Tyler Palko and Brodie Croyle to finish it up.

That said; the ground attack has picked right back up where it left off a year ago with RBs Jamaal Charles and backup Thomas Jones helping KC rank second overall ripping off an average of 150 YPG.

Defensively, the Chiefs have surrendered 20 points in each of their three preseason games played to date. The stop unit has been stingy against the pass allowing just 174 YPG (#5), but has been below average defending the run allowing 101.7 YPG (#17).

The ‘under’ has cashed for NFL preseason bettors in nine of KC’s L/12 home games (9-2-1 ATS), and the home team has won each of these teams previous two exhibition season meetings.

Will Chiefs betting backers finally crack a smile or will the Packers move Haley to 0-8 SU & ATS in the preseason? If you got a take on how this one goes down, login to your Bookmaker Sportsbook account immediately and grab a hold of the best line possible.
