The home team's offense was firing on all cylinders as they amassed an impressive total of 456 yards.

The completion percentage stood out at an impressive 71 percent despite two interceptions thrown during the game. On the ground, Kansas City's rushing attack added another dimension to their offensive juggernaut by accumulating 153 yards and scoring twice.


Kansas City's special teams also played a pivotal role in maintaining field position dominance throughout the contest. They executed seven kickoffs for a total of 455 yards, all resulting in touchbacks, thereby neutralizing any return threat posed by Chicago.


Defensively, Kansas City was just as dominant. The defense racked up three sacks for a loss of twelve yards and forced two turnovers – one interception returned for sixteen yards and one fumble recovery. They also made crucial plays on third down forcing two three-and-outs and stopping Chicago on fourth down once.


Chicago's efforts were stifled by Kansas City's relentless pressure; however, they did manage ten points on the scoreboard while gaining only fifteen penalty yards throughout the game.


The upcoming schedule sees the Kansas City Chiefs traveling to face off against New York Jets at MetLife Stadium on October second at eight twenty PM Eastern Time. Fans can catch this matchup live on NBC as both teams look to assert themselves early in what promises to be another exciting NFL season.
