Kris Knox laid the –3 with Kansas City, predicting Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes enter 2025 eager to re-establish an "explosive" identity after a relatively quiet 2024. Knox called left-tackle Rashawn Slater’s foot injury a season-long problem that will surface immediately against Chris Jones & Co., jeopardizing Justin Herbert’s timing. With the Chargers’ offensive cornerstone missing and no weather concerns on the Brazilian pitch, Knox sees Mahomes’ ceiling outpacing L.A.’s and expects K.C. to clear the short number.
