Kansas City @ Washington
Team Totals: Chiefs 31.5, Football Team 25
Five weeks of data suggest Washington’s defense isn’t just porous; it’s a slump buster for offenses. Four straight quarterbacks — Daniel Jones, Josh Allen, Matt Ryan, and Jameis Winston — have dropped top-five QB1 scores on DC Jack Del Rio’s unit, while Clyde Edwards-Helaire’s multi-week MCL sprain may push Andy Reid to lean even more on Kansas City’s passing attack. Patrick Mahomes enters Week 6 ranked No. 1 in the NFL in passing TDs (16), No. 1 at his position in fantasy points, and No. 1 in QBR (75.0) despite his team’s early struggles. There’s every reason to believe Mahomes will go off here. … I’m keeping a close eye on running back trade rumors surrounding K.C. — especially those involving Marlon Mack — but am for now expecting Darrel Williams to operate as the Chiefs’ lead back and Jerick McKinnon as a pace change.
