The Sunday Night Football matchup this week is a fixture that was last played in 2021. The Kansas City Chiefs will visit the Lambeau Field to take on the Green Bay Packers. The reigning Super Bowl champions hold a record of 8-3 whereas the Packers are 5-6. Chiefs are contending to win another Super Bowl, the Packers on the other hand are in a rebuilding phase with their new QB Jordan Love.
The Chiefs came into the season with expectations of defending their title. However, they started the season with a loss against the Detroit Lions, but the Chiefs rallied and won their next six games. Their QB Patrick Mahomes is having another great season and their defense is ranked in the top 5 in the league. The Kansas City-based team won their last game against the Las Vegas Raiders by 14 points.
The Packers entered the season with a lot of questions about their quarterback. Jordan Love backed up Aaron Rodgers for three seasons in Green Bay, but once the legendary QB left the team to join the New York Jets, Love was named the Packers’ starter. After a slow start to the season, the young QB has picked up his game in recent weeks and is looking comfortable in the offense.
In their last meeting in 2021, the Chiefs won the game 13-7 in what was Love’s first start in the NFL. The Chiefs and the Packers last played at Lambeau Field in 2015, where Green Bay defeated Kansas City, 38-28. This will be Mahomes’ first game at Lambeau Field since being drafted in the league in 2018.

Why the Kansas City Chiefs can win?
The Kansas City Chiefs have one of, if not the best, offense in the league. With all-time great players such as Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, the Chiefs have terrorized the league in recent years. They are averaging 23.3 points per game this season and are scoring 2.15 points per drive. The Chiefs’ passing game is averaging 258.5 yards per game.
The Chiefs’ defense is one of the best in the league. It ranks fourth in defensive yards average with 290 and have allowed 21 touchdowns so far this season. They have only allowed 176.6 passing yards per game this season and rank third in the league in that category. The Chiefs’ run defense can be vulnerable but with the Packers’ most talented RB Aaron Jones out for the game, that shouldn’t be a problem for the reigning champions.
Why the Green Bay Packers can win?
Jordan Love, the Green Bay Packers’ quarterback, has been playing well in recent weeks. He has improved his play each week and as a result of that, their offense has been playing good football. Love has 19 touchdowns this season and 11.6 yards per completion. He has accumulated at least 229 yards in five consecutive games.
The QB has also decreased his turnover-rate in recent games and has been taking care of the ball. The Packers lead the league with only 2 lost fumbles and have only given away the ball 12 times. The Chiefs’ defense has allowed almost 4.6 yards per carry to the opponents and only has 14 takeaways this season, despite being one of the league’s best defenses.
