Patrick Mahomes primed to show more as Tom Brady finds help from Leonard Fournette

Patrick Mahomes hasn’t been at his best this season - but the Kansas City Chiefs are a team that is hot right now.

Their defence has improved a lot and been a real strength recently, and despite the fact we know they can do more on offence, they’ve put together a win streak.

They play a Las Vegas Raiders side this week who have been struggling on offence in recent weeks.

Last time they played in week 10, Mahomes threw five touchdowns and had probably his best game of the season.

As they look for him to warm up and find more consistency towards the end of the season, this could be a good game at an ideal time.

Last year’s Super Bowl winners, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, are showing they’re still a great team ahead of a tough game against the Bills this week.

Buffalo want to bounce back from a tough defeat to New England, but this one will be tough for them.

Like the Chiefs, the Bucs defence is playing well and their defensive line could dominate the Bills offensive line.

We know all about Tom Brady and their weapons in the passing game, but Leonard Fournette is running the ball really well.

He’s been a huge part of that offence in recent weeks, and it just means they’re capable of beating you in so many different ways.

There’s a huge game on Monday Night Football, and if Arizona beat the LA Rams, how can you argue they’re not the team to beat in the NFC?

Kyler Murray is back healthy which is huge, and the Cardinals defence is playing incredible football at the moment

They are flying and this is a great match-up for them to send a message to anyone still doubting them at this stage of the season.

ONE TO WATCH - Leonard Fournette (Tampa Bay)

He’s a special back. Not just the way he runs the ball, but catching out of the backfield and blocking. He does it all - which is exactly what Tom Brady wants.
