How to Watch Jets vs. Chiefs Players To Watch Kansas City has just nine sacks, tied for the fewest in the NFL, which gives Geno Smith time to work. He has 1,913 passing yards, 12 touchdowns and three interceptions, and the Jets will need every bit of that protection. The Chiefs allow 18.7 points per game, fourth in the NFL, so New York will not score easily and the three interceptions are the number to protect. Kansas City has six interceptions of its own. Watch whether Smith can finish drives without handing the Chiefs a turnover. With Garrett Wilson out with a concussion, Adonai Mitchell moves to the top of the Jets’ receiver group after catching seven passes for 142 yards and a touchdown against Las Vegas. He has 16 catches for 265 yards in four games. Kansas City allows 222.9 passing yards per game. Mitchell averages 16.6 yards per catch, and Omar Cooper Jr. gives Geno Smith a second deep option at 20.7. Count Mitchell’s targets in the first half. Patrick Mahomes has 1,795 passing yards, 12 touchdowns and four interceptions, and he faces a Jets defense that has intercepted one pass all season, the fewest in the NFL. Kansas City’s passing offense averages 249.0 yards per game. The four interceptions are the one blemish on Mahomes’s season, and New York has almost no interception threat. A clean game would keep the Chiefs comfortable. Watch his throws on first down, where an early lead would let Kansas City play ahead and keep the Jets’ offense on the sideline. New York has 20 sacks, so Kansas City needs targets who get open quickly, and Travis Kelce fits with 29 catches for 410 yards and two touchdowns. He averages 14.1 yards per reception. The Jets allow 194.0 passing yards per game, fifth in the NFL, so Kelce does not have to carry the passing game. He needs to be Mahomes’s answer on third down. Watch his catches on third and medium, because each one extends a drive against a defense that has been tough to throw on. Jets vs. Chiefs Odds Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?
