Game Preview
Mike Krueger

Predicted Score: Chiefs 20, Jaguars 14

Kansas City: After starting 0-2 the Chiefs have rallied for victories against Minnesota and San Diego… holding both teams without a score in the second half. This week, Eddie Kennison returns to a lineup that suddenly has some playmakers on the outside. Tony Gonzalez and rookie Dwayne Bowe are giving defenses something to think about other than stopping the run. Bowe ranks 11th among fantasy wideouts but may have some difficult this week against the Jags-D that's had great success against the pass. Larry Johnson will be asked to carry the load giving the Chiefs just enough for a hard-fought victory.

  • Start: RB Larry Johnson, TE Tony Gonzalez, WR Dwayne Bowe
  • Consider: QB Damon Huard, K Dave Rayner
  • Sit: WR Eddie Kennison (inj) WR Jeff Webb, WR Samie Parker

Jacksonville: The Jaguars are coming off their bye week and are two weeks removed from their impressive victory at Denver. The Broncos could get nothing going against Jacksonville's defense, which has carried them to a 2-1 mark. Taylor and Drew have yet to get on track and neither has found the endzone after three games. Going against a stout Chiefs defense isn't going to help those numbers. KC ranks third in total defense and will have a raucous Arrowhead crowd behind them. The Jacksonville passing game is non-existent. Dennis Northcutt leads the team with 169 yards.

  • Start: Jaguars D/ST
  • Consider: RB Maurice Jones-Drew, RB Fred Taylor, QB David Garrard, WR Dennis Northcutt, TE Marcedes Lewis
  • Sit: WR Ernest Wilford, WR Matt Jones, K Josh Scobee (inj.)
