AFC West 2020 Week 15 predictions: Raiders back on track

Kansas City Chiefs at New Orleans Saints

In what could be a potential Super Bowl matchup, the Kansas City Chiefs will hit the road to take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 15. The Chiefs wrapped up their fifth straight AFC West title this past weekend during their victory against Miami, and they will be looking to continue their march to the No. 1 overall seed in the AFC this weekend.

The No. 1 seed holds more weight this season, as only the top-seed in each conference will earn a bye. The Saints are also looking to get the No. 1 seed in the NFC, so this is a game that could be an instant classic on Sunday.

The Chiefs are playing at an incredibly high level right now, and without Drew Brees, I do not see the Saints hanging in for four quarters against them. Sure, this is going to be a one-score game, but I believe Patrick Mahomes does enough against this Saints defense to come away with victory No. 13.

Prediction: Chiefs 34, Saints 28
