Kansas City Chiefs: Five easiest games on 2020 schedule

NUMBER FOUR: AT MIAMI DOLPHINS (WEEK 14)

Unlike some, I don’t think the Dolphins will be bad in 2020. They showed at the end of the 2019 season that they were a formidable opponent and now that they’ve added former Chief Emmanuel Ogbah, Kyle Van Noy, and Byron Jones on defense along with drafting Tua Tagovailoa to be their eventual quarterback of the future, the Dolphins could be decent in a few years.

That being said, it’ll all have to come together perfectly. This game still appears on the list of easiest games because even though it’s a road game, the Chiefs won the Super Bowl in Miami last year. It’s hard not to think they’ll be in the zone when this game takes place and be able to steamroll the Fins.

The Dolphins did Kansas City a favor last year when they defeated the Patriots in week 17 to give the Chiefs the two seed. While it’d be nice to pay them back eventually, this week 14 game in Miami should be a Chiefs W.

NUMBER THREE: CAROLINA PANTHERS (WEEK 9)

The Panthers moved on from Cam Newton, Luke Kuechly retired after just seven years in the league, and Greg Olsen is off to Seattle. As a result of those moves, it looked like the Panthers might be looking to rebuild. They brought Teddy Bridgewater in as their next quarterback and still have Christian McCaffrey though.

But, when it comes down to it, the Chiefs are better than the Panthers. Bridgewater is a nice quarterback and McCaffrey is terrifying at the running back position, but Carolina’s defense was the second worst in all of football last season. Considering how explosive this Chiefs offense can be, this could be a blowout.

Throw in that this game is at home and unless the Chiefs have a major injury or suspension, KC should roll in week nine against the Panthers.
