If Saturday’s game was supposed to be the final dress rehearsal before the regular season, the Chiefs’ defense has some glaring issues to address before the regular season.
Despite the Bears resting all of their starters, the Chiefs’ defense struggled to slow Chicago’s offensive assault led by backup quarterback Chase Daniel, and the offense couldn’t fully capitalize on its opportunities in a 27-20 loss.
The Chiefs looked out of sorts from the very beginning, committing a face mask penalty and badly missing two tackles on an opening drive that resulted in a touchdown by Chicago running back Benny Cunningham.
