Kansas City hosts Las Vegas in Week 7 as KC tries to reaffirm Super Bowl buzz after a statement win and Rashee Rice’s return fuels the pass game. Las Vegas, shorthanded by Brock Bowers’ knee, must counter a recharged Chiefs attack while Vegas’ offense has labored lately. Odds tilt KC -11.5 with a 45.5 total. Trends favor KC at home against the division, while Vegas has shown ATS life in KC and looking for a spark from its offense as Rohrd Moss? (note: article notes Geno Smith as Raiders starter).

Key fantasy angles: Mahomes remains a top anchor; Rice’s return could reallocate targets and open up the run game; Bowers’ absence tightens Vegas’ options and elevates Raider receivers. Bettors eye the implied pace and the Raiders' propensity to stay within the spread, while KC’s defense tweaks figure into DFS lineups. The piece frames this as a pivotal test for both teams’ AFC West standing.
