Just last week, the Green Bay-Kansas City game was looming as one of the largest in the NFL this season. Then Patrick Mahomes went down with a dislocated kneecap, tainting Sunday’s made-for-prime-time TV matchup against Packers counterpart Aaron Rodgers. The injury made this contest a little harder to pick, too, even if the Chiefs have yet to rule out Mahomes, because the Packers jumped to 41/2-point favourites by Wednesday. “We’ll see how it all goes,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said, “but we have a lot of confidence in Matt.”Mahomes or not, the Packers could be due for a slight stumble, so …Pick: Chiefs, 31-27. The Bills ought to be less daunting of a foe than what the reeling Eagles pass defence has faced lately.
