In this matchup, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers head to Kansas City as 9-point underdogs with a game total set at 45.5. With Kansas City’s conservative offense and Tampa’s injury struggles, picking the right captains and flex options is essential to capitalize on any potential upside.Tampa Bay Buccaneers +9 at Kansas City Chiefs – 45.5

Captain: Kareem Hunt, RB, Kansas City ($14,700)

Hear me out. The volume and touchdowns have been there for Hunt, but the efficiency hasn’t. The Bucs defense has given up the sixth most fantasy points per game to the position. With some positive regression, Hunt will cross that 100-yard barrier and smash this slate.

Contrarian Captain Consideration: Xavier Worthy, WR, Kansas City ($12,300)

Flex Option: Baker Mayfield, QB, Tampa Bay ($9,600)

Mayfield has been one of the top fantasy quarterbacks this year, especially over the last four weeks. Yes, he’s down Evans and Godwin, but that didn’t slow him down last week. Yes, the Chiefs are tough to move the ball against, but the game script will call for 35+ throws, and Mayfield has shown some wheels on scrambles.

Flex Option: Travis Kelce, TE, Kansas City ($8,800)

It took a while for Kelce to break out, and it finally happened last week. With Rashee Rice and JuJu Smith-Schuster out, Mahomes is forced to feed the Hall of Famer in the middle of the field. I’d expect 7+ targets against a Bucs defense giving up a healthy amount of fantasy points to tight ends.

Other Flex Considerations

Patrick Mahomes, QB, Kansas City ($10,000)

Cade Otton, TE, Tampa Bay ($8,400)

Xavier Worthy, WR, Kansas City ($8,200)

Rashaad White, RB, Tampa Bay ($7,400)

De’Andre Hopkins, WR, Kansas City ($7,000)

Jalen McMillan, WR, Tampa Bay ($6,200)

Sterling Shepard, WR, Tampa Bay ($5,600)

Bargain Bin Flex: Trey Palmer, WR, Tampa Bay ($4,000)

It’s wide receiver roulette time for the Bucs with the top two options out. If Mayfield is going to chuck it 35+ times, one of these cheap receivers has to get some work. Palmer played 70% of the snaps last week and has the ability to hit a home run.

Bargain Bin Flex Considerations

Harrison Butker, K, Kansas City ($5,200)

Kansas City D/ST ($5,000)

Chase McLaughlin, K, Tampa Bay ($4,800)

Semaje Perine, RB, Kansas City ($4,400)

Noah Gray, TE, Kansas City ($2,800)

Ryan Miller, WR, Tampa Bay ($1,000)

Best Bets for MNF Week 9

Final Score: Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17, Kansas City Chiefs 27

This one is shaping up to be another slugfest as the Tampa offense is banged up, and the Kansas City attack has been very conservative. There is a lack of explosiveness in this matchup, which favors the Chiefs at home. Kansas City covers the spread while the total barely sneaks under.
