Kansas City Chiefs
The Kansas City linebacker credits his familiarity with the defensive scheme for his second-year improvement.
The Kansas City Chiefs’ 2022 draft class might go down as one of the best in franchise history.
That started to become apparent last season, as several members of the class contributed to the team’s championship run. But the progress we have seen from Year 2 players during the first two games of the 2023 season provides even more evidence of how transformative last season’s rookies have been
One of the standouts of Sunday’s 17-9 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars was linebacker Leo Chenal. Even...

Here is the Chiefs’ first official injury report of the week:

Kansas City may be using a new kick returner against the Chicago Bears on Sunday.
As the Kansas City Chiefs began their preparation for Sunday’s Week 3 matchup with the Chicago Bears on Wednesday, they did so without five key players. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid provided the lengthy injury list at the beginning of his media appearance.
Wide receiver and returner Richie James is dealing with an MCL issue, running back Isiah Pacheco has a hamstring contusion and wide receiver Kadarius Toney has a sprained toe. Linebackers Nick Bolton (sprained ankle) and Willie Gay Jr. (quad contusion) participated in...

In Jacksonville, a former Charger played a significant role in Kansas City’s victory.
On Sunday afternoon, the Kansas City Chiefs secured their first victory of the season: a 17-9 road win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. While the Chiefs’ offense still appears to be finding its rhythm, it did enough to secure the win. However, it was the defense that truly shined — especially with the return of All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones.
In every game, regardless of the outcome, there are unsung heroes who quietly excel, making crucial contributions that often escape the limelight. These players operate under the radar....

The Chiefs right tackle was under heavy scrutiny for a lot of reasons, but he did not play as poorly as many may think.
The margin for error in an NFL game is small for every player who steps on the field, especially for offensive tackles. It's a thankless job: the fewer times a tackle is mentioned throughout a game, the better.
After last Thursday's opening game against the Detroit Lions, the entire football universe was tuned into Kansas City Chiefs right tackle Jawaan Taylor.
Singled out and scrutinized on a play-by-play basis, the broadcast team [relentlessly picked on Taylor...

Chiefs headlines for Wednesday, September 20
Vick, Romo, Gates, Peppers, Hester Among 2024 Pro Football Hall of Fame Nominees | Bleacher Report
Gates, meanwhile, helped to redefine the tight end position while forcing front offices to rethink how they evaluated certain prospects. Despite not playing a single down of college football, the 43-year-old was an All-Pro by his second NFL season and wound up with 11,841 receiving yards and 116 touchdowns across 16 years.
Jamaal Charles, Brandon Marshall, Jordy Nelson, Haloti Ngata, T.J. Lang, Josh Sitton and Max Unger are the other first-time nominees....

Kansas City will be hoping to extend its record to 2-1.
On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs return to GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium for a Week 3 matchup against the Chicago Bears — the second of four NFC North opponents the team will face this season.
The two teams have met just 13 times since the AFL and NFL merged in 1970 — and in the last 10 of these games, the two teams have alternated victories. In the last one, Kansas City defeated Chicago 26-3 at Soldier Field during Week 16 of 2019.
But in the next one,...

The Arrowhead Pride team ranks the league from top to bottom.
I can’t be the only person who believes that the start of this season has been just flat-out crazy, right?
Every year we hear about how championships aren’t won in September. Well, that’s never been more true than this season.
As a betting man, it has been a disaster to try and predict game winners, spreads or even the over/under. For example: the Chiefs’ matchup with the Jaguars. Who would have thought there would be 26 points total in that matchup?!
Go home, NFL. You’re drunk.

A win over the Jaguars did little to move the needle on Kansas City’s ranking.
After the Kansas City Chiefs’ 17-9 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday afternoon, the team is largely unchanged in the national power rankings — and the outlets that did move the the team this week were evenly split between those that moved the Chiefs up and those that moved them down. “A 17-point performance in a win over the Jaguars is a win. Nothing more than that,” said Sports Illustrated.
Here’s this week’s sampling:

Kansas City’s right tackle has been in the spotlight during the first two weeks of the season.
Seasoned broadcaster (and former player) Cris Collinsworth has been the voice of big games for many years. NFL fans have become accustomed to his signature “here’s a guy” patter when he discusses a player’s talent or special ability.
But as he called the Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 1 loss to the Detroit Lions, Collinsworth spent a large chunk of his time criticizing Kansas City right tackle Jawaan Taylor’s alignment in relation to the line of scrimmage — and his very quick first step....

A struggling passing attack finally got help from the run game in Week 2.
After six quarters of football in the Kansas City Chiefs’ 2023 season, the rushing attack was a huge point of concern. Through the first half of the Chiefs’ Week 2 win, the team’s running backs had combined for 47 rushing yards on 16 handoffs. The group only had two carries on Sunday at that point.
That aspect of the game almost felt abandoned by the coaching staff. That doesn’t just refer to a lack of called runs; it was the style of runs they were calling...
