The Commanders in the game ended up having a great offensive showing. The Commanders went 23/38 in the passing attack for 229 yars with only 1 pick, but were sacked 2 times for a loss of 11 yards. Running the ball for the Commanders was good with 121 yards on a total of 26 carries with 3 touchdowns.

The Commanders gave up 195 yards in the air and a touchdown, but did end up getting 3 sacks for 13 yards lost. The rushing defense for Washington was not that horrible giving up only 93 yards and a touchdown while facing 30 carries.

Kansas City is coming in after losing in their opening game of the preseason. The loss for the Chiefs came against the Bears and ended up being a disappointing loss. The loss came by a score of 19-14.

Kansas City did have a rushing defense that was pushed around quite a bit giving up 137 yards on 32 carries, but did not allow a score in the game.

Odds from Betonline.ag 

Okay, I know that you are probably scratching your head right now as to why I have the Commanders as a +4. However, the chance of the Chiefs covering the spread I do not think will happen here, but I do see the Kansas City Chiefs winning the game. The total, though, with both of these offensive units combined will end up going on the over.
