Buffalo Bills at Kansas City Chiefs (-1.5, 49.5)
4:25 p.m. ET, GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, Kansas City

Van Pelt’s choice: Bills +1.5

This one is tricky since the Chiefs limp in off a loss. They are going to light someone up among these weeks, however I simply can’t quit Buffalo. Can’t do it. I do not know if they are going to win among these wild back-and-forth games. But I am going to keep backing them like they are going to.SVP: 2-7 all-time when picking the Costs; 8-4 when choosing against the Chiefs

Can’t punt on Winners. Ever. I’m here for you– if for no other reason than to fade the bald guy.
