Kansas City Chiefs at Chicago Bears

For our final AFC West game, we have the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the Chicago Bears in prime time in Week 16. With the Chiefs having already wrapped up the division, they travel to Chicago to hopefully raise their playoff seed on Sunday Night Football.

The Bears may not be the force they were last year, or that many had predicted them to be, but their defense is still pretty stout, and they are winners of three out of their last four. Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs are heavy favorites to win this one and they should deliver, but the Bears will put up a fight in front of the Soldier Field crowd.

The Chiefs should come away with the victory in this one, but it going to be a close one. Mitchell Trubisky has played better lately, and Mahomes will be taking on his former offensive coordinator in Bears head coach Matt Nagy.

Prediction: Chiefs 21, Bears 17
