Hot Team to Bet on Week 9 NFL - Kansas City Chiefs  ...Not Our Pick (Plus Power Ranking)

Just because the Chiefs are 7-1 on the season and rank 2nd in the NFL Power Rankings for Week 3 doesn't have to mean they've been good for bettors.  The LA Rams are thus far undefeated yet only 4-4 Against The Spread.

In the case of the Chiefs, they are the top team when it comes to covering the spread thus far (7-1 Against The Spread).  Their Straight Up performance has translated into the ability to cover as well as paying out nicely for bettors (assuming they have wagered on the Chiefs every game so far this season).

Week 9 Power Ranking

From ESPN.com:  "The Chiefs have had trouble finishing some of their games. They've had to sweat at the end of wins against the Chargers, Steelers, 49ers and Broncos after having big leads. Not all of this is on their defense, which played well down the stretch in some of those games. Mostly, the Chiefs haven't been good enough at killing the clock. They've had the disturbing tendency to go three-and-out when they need to maintain possession."

Latest Odds

The Chiefs have little value winning the AFC West at -600. 

Super Bowl 53 is a different story with payout odds of 6-1.

Likely Outcome

Sagarin suggests this line should be at Kansas City -8, but their calculations do not take into account the head coaching change in Cleveland. 

There appears to be an opinion among bookmakers that Cleveland covers hereThis makes the Browns a good bet, and an even better bet when looking at how oddsmakers continue to hold on the -8 despite more than 75% of the action coming in on KC Saturday afternoon.

We'd be remiss in pointing out that the CBS proven computer model does love the Chiefs (as well as the Broncos).
