Rams vs Chiefs, Sunday Nov 27

Kansas City Chiefs v Los Angeles Rams

The defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams will meet former NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12 of the 2022-23 NFL season.

The Rams’ offseason was one of the most active of any team in the NFL. After losing Von Miller to the Bills and trading Robert Woods to the Titans, the team brought in LB Bobby Wagner and WR Allen Robinson to fill their spots. The Rams also lost offensive lineman Andrew Whitworth to retirement and extended the contracts of core players like Matthew Stafford, Aaron Donald, and Cooper Kupp in recent months.

Coming off of their sixth straight AFC West title in 2021-22, the Kansas City Chiefs go into 2022-23 without WR Tyreek Hill, who was traded to the Miami Dolphins, as well as S Tyrann Mathieu, who they let walk in free agency. Head Coach Andy Reid and the Chiefs’ front office went on to sign S Justin Reid to a 3-year deal, former Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to a 3-year deal, and former Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster to a 1-year deal.

The Week 12 matchup will be one of the more anticipated games of the regular season, with both the Rams and the Chiefs being among the favorites to make it out of their Conference and compete for Super Bowl LVII.

SportsRec Prediction

Prediction: Rams 34, Chiefs 24

The additions of MVS and JuJu give the Chiefs’ offense a bit of a boost after losing Tyreek Hill, but it would be difficult to bet against the Rams’ defense even if he was still on the team due to the level of depth and lack of weaknesses they have all around the field. Patrick Mahomes will do his thing and still find ways to get the ball in the end zone, but Matthew Stafford’s ability to put points on the board in a hurry will give the Rams a slight edge on the road.
