Blitz Edge: why the model likes Kansas City Chiefs

The model gives Kansas City Chiefs a 80% chance to win this one. The biggest factors: KC's rush offense (#3) has a 24-spot edge over LV's rush defense (#27), and KC's rush defense (#5) has a 19-spot edge over LV's rush offense (#24).

Home field adds a small extra boost on top of that. LV is also dealing with Dont'e Thornton Jr. (WR) listed as out, which tips things further KC's way.
