NUMBER 2: CHIEFS AT SEAHAWKS (DECEMBER 23, 7:20 PM)

In their second to last game of the regular season, the Kansas City Chiefs will travel to Seattle for Sunday Night Football. Initially this was the toughest game on my list, but I bumped it down to number two.

The Seahawks looked awful to start the season. Russell Wilson was getting sacked every other play and it looked like the Legion of Boom days were long over for Seattle. Things have improved for the Seahawks since then, as they sit at 5-5 heading into the weekend.

Seattle will have a lot to play for down the stretch. They won’t win the NFC West due to the Rams’ dominance, but the Seahawks are still heavily in play for a Wild Card spot, which they can probably lock up in this week 16 match-up.

Why this game could be tough is that Seattle’s stadium is one of the loudest in the game. Arrowhead is the loudest, but Century Link is right up there with the 12th man tradition that they have.

The Chiefs are the better team between the two, but if there’s a possibility for a slip-up somewhere down the line, this road game in Seattle is where that could happen.
