Week 9 of the 2023 NFL season is packed with riveting matchups.
Perhaps none is more enticing than the early morning opener on Sunday, which will feature the Miami Dolphins and the Kansas City Chiefs facing off in Germany.
It's a battle of two 6-2 teams in the AFC, each having the quality to reach the AFC Championship Game and, potentially, earn a Super Bowl appearance.
It'll also mark the first time star wideout Tyreek Hill will play his former team after Kansas City dealt him to Miami in the 2022 offseason. This game is technically a home contest for the Chiefs, though Hill won't get a proper homecoming at Arrowhead Stadium.
