Game Preview
After taking down the Colts 33-30 on Monday Night Football following an OT, the Chiefs (2-0) find themselves atop the AFC West. Patrick Mahomes had 382 passing yards for three passing touchdowns and is undoubtedly the No.1 favorite for the Comeback Player of the Year award.
Running back Kenneth Walker III was excellent again, logging 117 rushing yards and 61 receiving yards, and so far the explosive runner has notched 290 rushing yards overall. Walker III added an extra dimension to the Chiefs’ offense, which now looks upgraded.

Malik Willis and the Fins (0-2) didn’t start well. Though, we need to say that Miami had back-to-back games on the road, one against the Raiders 13-27 and one against the 49ers 13-35. They now face a tough task at home, up against one of the Super Bowl favorites.
Willis has 417 passing yards for one touchdown and one pick, while RB De’Von Achane posted only 110 rushing yards on 31 carries. In the meantime, the defense is terrible, with the Miami Dolphins not recording a single sack so far.
Chiefs vs. Dolphins Predictions
Even though they play on the road, the Chiefs shouldn’t have any problems against the Fins. Simply, they are in way better shape and are better in every aspect of play, therefore, we pick the guest to win.
