Prediction
The Saints were incredible in their first two games, but have come back down to Earth. Kansas City might not be as explosive as years past, but they keep winning and keep covering spreads. K.C. is 9-1 ATS over their last 10 games dating back to last season and are a very healthy squad. The Saints have a long list of injuries including four starters that have been ruled out for Monday. The Chiefs have been playing very good defense and that will be a big factor in this game. I say Kansas City gets an easy Monday Night Football victory.
Pick: Chiefs -5.5
