Patrick Mahomes had a slow start to the season, as the Kansas City Chiefs held a pitiful 2-3 record due to a huge lacking in their gameplay. However, they seem to have overcome that lackness, since the defense seems to be doing pretty well now. Yet, the offense still needs the necessary boost to end the season, as they have been doing for the past three seasons.

Although when compared to the defending champions, the Chiefs seem to look somewhat bleak in their approach.

Comparing the two teams side by side, it’s pretty safe to bet on the Buccaneers since the team has worked well together. And that well-poised game matters in the playoffs where one mistake could end the season right away. The Chiefs although seem to be in pretty good shape at the moment, but it is to be seen if they could go past their opponents in the playoffs untouched.
