Week 5 of the NFL season is jam-packed with intriguing matchups. However, the one featuring the league's best offense against the league's best defense shines brightly above the rest. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes finally felt some pressure in Denver on Monday night but showed to be well-matured beyond his years and keep that unbeaten mark intact. The type of pressure he'll feel on Sunday, though, will be unlike anything he's seen before. 


Game Info: Jacksonville Jaguars (3-1) at Kansas City Chiefs (4-0) - Arrowhead Stadium - Kansas City, MO - 1:00 p.m. EST


Odds: The oddsmakers have collectively decided this game is too close to call. KC gets spotted as the three-point favorite being the home team and also carries a money line of -148. The Jags (+3) have an interesting money line of +132, thus letting us know they have a good shot of winning this game outright. The total currently sits at 49 with both the over/under at -110.

Interesting Stat: This is a true clash of strength as the Chiefs lead the NFL with 145 points scored and the Jags are second, only to the Washington Redskins (who played one fewer game), with 56 points allowed. 


Best Prop Bets: 


* Blake Bortles - Over 264.5 Passing Yards (-102): The Chiefs defense is getting lit up every which way through the air early this season. Jags running back Leonard Fournette has missed five games as a member of the Jags -- Bortles has thrown for at least 325 yards in three of those games. 


* T.J. Yeldon - Over 36.5 Receiving Yards (-102): No team in the NFL has allowed more receiving yards per game (96.3) to the running back position than the Chiefs. Yeldon has at least 46 receiving yards in each of his last two games.
