Kansas City Chiefs: Four players to watch vs Jets in Week 8
FRANK CLARK
Frank Clark has certainly had a good season in 2020, but the reason I have him listed as a player to watch this week is because he hasn’t recorded a sack since Week 4 against New England. He’s still been huge on defense, recovering a fumble last week in Denver and hitting Josh Allen twice the week before in Buffalo.
The Jets offensive line, much like the Chiefs’ o-line, has sustained some injuries this season, so Clark should be able to feast this week. If nothing else, hopefully he hits Sam Darnold a couple of times and makes it a living hell for hm at Arrowhead.
LE’VEON BELL
You all knew this was coming. It’s the revenge game for Le’Veon Bell and that should be enough motivation for him to completely go off for the first time in a Kansas City Chiefs uniform. Bell had six carries in his Chiefs debut and broke off a few long runs, so that’s the hope for this week.
Bell didn’t have a great experience in New York and he came to Kansas City to win a championship, so this is his chance to stick it to his old team. The Jets have surrendered over 100 yards rushing in all but one game this season, so the stage is set for both Bell and Clyde Edwards-Helaire to have a huge day carrying the rock.
If these four Chiefs are able to do their jobs against a much weaker Jets team, this Week 8 match-up should be an easy Kansas City Chiefs victory.
