WHY THIS WINDOW MATTERS
Kansas City opened with a 31β10 Monday night win over Denver. Patrick Mahomes is back from last seasonβs knee injury. Kenneth Walker III ran for 173 yards and scored twice in that opener. Indianapolis opened at home and lost 23β41 to Baltimore. Last season these teams met in Kansas City in Week 12; the Chiefs won 23β20 in overtime. The all-time regular-season series is Colts 14, Chiefs 10.
Boards have listed Kansas City around a 6.5-point home favorite, with a total near 47. Those numbers can move before Sunday. NBC did not put Tirico and Collinsworth on Arrowhead for a quiet night.
The clock is set. The channel is set. The booth is set. 8:20 P.M. ET. NBC. ARROWHEAD.
