Joe Burrow vs. Patrick Mahomes part three is on deck. Can Burrow become the first quarterback to start 3-0 against Mahomes in his career?
CBS Sports' Adam Schein guarantees it will happen. "Joe Burrow has it," Schein said on his "Time to Schein" TV series. "I believe the Cincinnati Bengals, if they have Chase and if they have Mixon, they will beat the Kansas City Chiefs coming up this weekend."

Schein's bold prediction looks to be in line as Bengals' WR Ja'Marr Chase is expected to play this week and RB Joe Mixon "is trending in the right direction."
Cincinnati has looked great going undefeated in the month of November. The Bengals are on a season-best three-game win streak and are looking to continue that Sunday when they host the Chiefs.
However, Cincinnati's schedule isn't easy. The Bengals have the fourth hardest remaining strength of schedule in the NFL.

Cincinnati's final six opponents in the regular season have a combined 39-27 record, but the 9-2 Chiefs are up next.
The Chiefs will be ready after the Bengals defeated them in the AFC Championship game last season. Will the Bengals steal another win or will Mahomes get his first against Burrow?
