KANSAS CITY
AT NEW ENGLAND
TV: Channel 4, 5:30 PDT.
Line: Patriots by 9.
Over/under: 48 1/2.
Sam Farmer’s pick: The Patriots don’t lose these games in prime time at home, and certainly not with another banner going up. Watch for them to double Tyreek Hill and take their chances with Travis Kelce. Patriots 30, Chiefs 20
