Week 8: at Kansas City Chiefs (in London)
If this game was going to be played at Arrowhead Stadium I would have marked it down as a loss. That is one of the loudest NFL stadiums and I like the Chiefs enough to have them at number eight in my power rankings heading into week 1.
But of course, this game won’t be played in Kansas City, it will be played in London. That means a long trip across the Atlantic for both teams but if there is a team with an advantage in this neutral field game, it is the Lions. Most of the roster went through the London experience last season that should pay dividends while the Chiefs are going to London for the first time.
Prediction: Win (6-2)
