In a critical matchup of would-be playoff contenders, both teams could use the return of some of their playmakers. Charles is still a possibility for Sunday but that’s still questionable. the Teams has been taking a very conservative approach in the possible activation of Charles. It would not be a surprise if that continues with an eye to a post-bye-week return.
Snaps Tell the Tale
One thing that is interesting is looking at the Chiefs snap counts from Sunday. Tamba Hali’s snap counts rose considerably mostly due to an injury to Dee Ford against the Jets. Spencer Ware received 71 % of the snaps against the Jets as well which is a big increase over the first two weeks.
