Final score: Defense carries Chiefs to 13-7 victory over Packers

An old-school, defensive battle took place at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday afternoon, in which the Kansas City Chiefs outlasted the Green Bay Packers for a 13-7 victory that brought their season record to 5-4. The Chiefs’ defense took advantage of Packers’ quarterback Jordan Love making his first start, shutting out Green Bay until late in the fourth quarter. The Chiefs’ offense opened the game with a touchdown drive — and then didn’t cross the goal line again.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes finished 19/36 passing, totaling 153 yards and one touchdown; he had a passer rating of 73.
