Bears vs Chiefs Preview

The Chiefs are coming off their first win of the season, a 17-9 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars Week 2. Kansas City and reigning MVP Patrick Mahomes are averaging just 18.5 points a game on offense, uncharacteristically low for the group.

With current Chiefs OC Matt Nagy taking the offensive coordinator reins from Eric Bienemy, some are wondering if this could be a revenge game of sorts for Nagy, who served as head coach of the Bears from 2018 until the end of the 2021 season.

“This is about our team vs. them and me being a Kansas City Chief and going out and being better from last week, regardless of who we’re playing,” Nagy said, via NBC Sports. “We’ve got to improve offensively, be better there, and that’s really been the focus since that game ended last weekend.”

On the other side, the Bears are fresh from their second straight ugly loss, falling to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 27-17 last week. Chicago QB Justin Fields struggled again, going 16-for-29 for 211 yards, a TD and two interceptions. “I wasn’t necessarily playing my game,” Fields said the week after the loss.

“Felt like I was kind of robotic and not playing like myself,” the Bears QB added. “My goal this week is just to say eff it and go out there and play football how I know to play football. That includes thinking less and just going out there and playing off of instincts rather than so much say info in my head, data in my head. Just literally going out there and playing football. Going back to it’s a game and that’s it. That’s when I play my best, when I’m just out there playing free and being myself, so I’m going to say kind of bump all the what I should, this and that, pocket stuff. I’m going to go out there and be me.”

The Bucs torched a Bears secondary that was without starting cornerback Kyler Gordon, and safety Eddie Jackson also went down early with an injury, leaving Chicago’s secondary extremely vulnerable. Gordon is still out, and Jackson is also out, so Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce could be in for a huge game.

Broadcasters slated to call the game include Kevin Burkhardt, who will be doing the play-by-play, former Bears tight end Greg Olsen will provide the color commentary, whilw Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi will be the sideline reporters.
