Chiefs vs Seahawks Prediction
Seattle comes into this matchup looking for their first preseason win, but they have scored a total of 23 points through two games. The Seahawks will be starting Milroe at quarterback, who was not good last week. Kansas City is also looking for their first win, after they fell apart in the second half last week. The Chiefs will play Nussmeier for most of this game, but I am going to back Seattle with Milroe. I think his mobility will be a big factor over the course of the game and I like Seattle to win.
