Chiefs: What are the Chances...?

Found November 27, 2011 on The Steelyard:
PLAYERS: Tyler Palko,  Kyle Orton
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers,  Kansas City Chiefs

Oakland_raiders_v_c88a
The Steelers are a ten-point favorite at Kansas City tonight—and deservedly so. Arrowhead Stadium is one of the toughest venues for a visiting team, but with Tyler Palko at QB and numerous key players lost for the season due to injury, it’s difficult to imagine the 4-6 Chiefs coming away with a win against Pittsburgh. But I wouldn’t be surprised if Kyle Orton makes an appearance in relief for Kansas City if Palko struggles, as can be expected. I’m not confident the Steelers will cover the spread, but I’m assigning Pitt a 75 percent chance of victory.Prediction success rate in 2011? 5-2 thus far (missed a couple games); 64-28 all-time.
