Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs Prediction
This past week, the Chiefs signed former All-Pro running back Le'Veon Bell after he was surprisingly released by the Jets. While Bell and the Jets could never make things work, and the team couldn't find an acceptable trade for him, Bell is still one of the most talented backs in football.
Bell won't make his KC debut against the Bills, however. Fans will have to wait until next week's game against the Denver Broncos to see the Chiefs' new addition.
Nonetheless, both the Chiefs and Bills are looking to bounce back after last week's losses. The Chiefs seem to have a powerhouse offensively, but the Bills defense might be something to look out for, despite the fact that they gave up 42 points to the Titans.
Prediction: Chiefs win in a close game
