Power-rating comparison
What the model sees in Jets at Chiefs
The Jets travel to face the Chiefs in Week 9. Our power ratings put the Chiefs 20th of 32 at -0.5 (Average tier) and the Jets 31st at -4.0 (Below Avg tier) — a 3.5-point gap that home field widens to a 6-point line on the Chiefs, 67% to win. It rates as the 4th-widest of the 15 games in Week 9.
The defense wins the headline matchup here: the Chiefs grade -0.8 on that side of the ball (18th of 32) against a Jets offense at -3.1 (30th) — 2.3 points the wrong way for the offense. Going the other direction, the Chiefs offense (-0.1, 20th) meets the Jets defense (-2.2, 27th), a 2.2-point gap. Special teams adds to it: the Jets grade +1.3, 1st in the league, against +0.4 (19th) on the other side — close to a point of hidden margin.
Zoom out to the full season and the model projects the Chiefs at 8.2 wins (favored in 8 of 17) and the Jets at 6.5 (favored in 4) — 1.7 wins apart across the year. By win probability this is the 16th-hardest game on the Chiefs' schedule and the 7th-hardest on the Jets'.
Recent history, for context only: 10 regular-season meetings since 2002, 6-4 in the Chiefs' favour, plus 2 playoff games. They last met in 2023: Chiefs won 23-20 in October. Over their last 4 meetings the Chiefs are 3-1. It is not an input to the line — rosters turn over faster than series records do.
Does the model earn this number? In 448 of the 3266 walk-forward games it has been graded on (2013-2024, no market line used), it landed in the 65-70% range. Those favourites went 68%. The 67% on the Chiefs here sits in that same band, and the history backs it.
Kalshi has not listed KXNFLGAME-26NOV08NYJKC, so there is no price on the board and no edge to quote. The model's number to hold it to: Chiefs 67%, Jets 33%. Applying our five-point threshold, that makes Chiefs contracts a buy at 62c or below and Jets contracts a buy at 28c or below — anything between is inside the noise, and we pass. Week 1's KXNFLGAME contracts opened in May 2026 and the rest of the slate lists as the season gets closer; this page picks up the price automatically when it does.
