Both teams will be playing without their starting running backs this week \u2013 quarterback play will be front and center as both teams attempt to get on track.

Pro Bowl linebacker Derrick Johnson, starting tackle Mike DeVito and Pro Bowl running back Jamaal Charles and Pro Bowl safety Eric Berry are all likely to miss Sunday&#8217;s game &#8211; not good if you are a Chiefs fan. <\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63753&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>That said this team did hang with the Broncos last week which showed themselves and everyone else that KC is a team that is going to compete \u2013 week-in and week-out.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest omission from the lineup this week is Jamaal Charles who IS the offense in KC. Good news comes in the form of Knile Davis who filled in admirably and gained 105 yards and two TDs against Denver. The Chiefs will continue to run the ball Sunday and by all accounts and they should find some success.<\/p>\n<p>Kansas City welcomed Dwayne Bowe back from suspension last week and they were able to take care of the ball \u2013 two things that were missing during their Week 1 game. With Alex Smith guiding his conservative offense, the Chiefs may have just enough to get past the Fins. It may all come down to\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The Chiefs defense has its share of injuries as well. But Justin Houston and Tamba Hali still exist as one of the more exciting pass rush combos in the game. Kansas City catches a break this week \u2013 Knowshon Moreno will miss the game leaving Ryan Tannehill to be the man \u2013 and that plays right into the hands of the Chiefs pass rushers.<\/p>\n<h3>Dolphins<\/h3>\n<p>The injury to Knowshon Moreno seemed to suck the life out of the Miami Dolphins offense \u2013 he put the Fins on his back in Week 1 and almost single-handedly guided them to a win versus New England. <\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=66501&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Miami faces the reality of life without Moreno again this week as they try to bounce back from a 29-10 loss to Buffalo.<\/p>\n<p>The Miami offense is definitely in trouble \u2013 the trio of Lamar Miller, Damian Williams and Orleans Darkwa scare absolutely nobody. The Fins will likely have to throw the ball to be successful with a so-far unflattering Ryan Tannehill who is averaging just 5 yards per throw. <\/p>\n<p>Mike Wallace has been impressive so far but outside of him, there isn\u2019t much of a threat in the Miami receiving corp.<\/p>\n<p>Defensively the Dolphins were unable to duplicate their impressive, four sack Week 1 performance against Tom Brady and couldn\u2019t generate much against EJ Manuel last week. <\/p>\n<p>Cameron Wake and Olivier Vernon are a terrific pass rushing duo \u2013 much better than they showed in their Week 2 loss. <\/p>\n<p>With Jamaal Charles out and Dwayne Bowe being KC\u2019s best weapon, the Miami pass rush can focus on getting to Alex Smith and should, in turn have a better game.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63752&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<h3>NFL Week 3 Betting Trends:<\/h3>\n<p>\u2022 KC are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 road games.<br \/>\n\u2022 Under is 35-16-1 in KC last 52 games on grass.<br \/>\n\u2022 Under is 24-11-1 in KC last 36 vs. AFC.<br \/>\n\u2022 Under is 19-7-1 in MIA last 27 vs. AFC.<\/p>\n<h3>Week 3 NFL Prediction<\/h3>\n<p>At very least this game looks close \u2013 4 1\/2 points is too rich. Despite injuries, I like the KC offense better than the Miami offense and I prefer the Chiefs pass rush over Miami\u2019s. Simply put, I have little faith in Miami right now. Watch the Chiefs rally and play their best game of the season despite the absence of some of their best players.<\/p>\n<p>The quarterback edge goes to Kansas City and the battle of the back-up backs also goes to the Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NFL Week 3 Betting 4* Play<\/strong>: Chiefs to at least cover the 4 1\/2 points<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>***NOTE***<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By using promo code <em><strong>NFL2014<\/strong><\/em> when you deposit as little as $50.00, you will score a 50% bonus to use on Sunday\u2019s big game &#8211; or anything else on the overloaded betting board.<\/p>\n<p>Credit cards?
