Chiefs vs Bucs Preview
Both of these teams are coming off of their first loss of the season and will be looking to bounce back. It’s a matchup that will feature a ton of hype as it’s two of the best quarterbacks in the league squaring off in Brady and Mahomes.
The Chiefs’ offense has still been sharp to start the season averaging 29.33 points per game so far. They’ve also averaged 378.7 yards per game.
Mahomes has been sharp so far passing for 857 yards along with eight touchdowns and one interception. The Chiefs have four receivers this season with over 100 yards and Travis Kelce leads the way with 17 receptions for 230 yards and two touchdowns.
Juju Smith-Schuster has also played well with 14 receptions for 178 yards. As a team, Kansas City has rushed for 279 yards with Clyde Edwards-Helaire leading the way with 116 yards and a touchdown.
On defense, the Chiefs have allowed 21.7 points per game this season. They have generated pressure with ten sacks, but have only forced two turnovers so far.
It’s hard to evaluate the Buccaneers’ offense at this point with all the injuries they’ve had. The good news is that Mike Evans will be back from suspension. As of Friday afternoon, Julio Jones, Chris Godwin, and Russell Gage are all listed as questionable.
The Bucs’ offense has averaged just 17 points per game so far this season. Brady has still played well passing for 673 yards with three touchdowns and one interception.
Despite missing a game, Evans is still the top receiver with eight receptions for 132 yards and a touchdown. Russell Gage has also missed a game and has caught 19 passes for 128 yards and a touchdown.
Leonard Fournette has rushed for 227 yards and has averaged 4.0 yards per carry. Offensive Coordinator Byron Leftwich said this week he plans to get rookie Rachaad White more involved this week.
The Bucs’ defense has been stout allowing just 9.0 points per game so far this season. Tampa Bay has also recorded 11 sacks and forced eight turnovers.
