The Kansas City Chiefs are playing back to games at home to start the season. After a 27-20 win over the Baltimore Ravens last week, they host the Cincinnati Bengals. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes played well last week connecting on 20-of-28 passes for 291 yards and a touchdown.
He looks to be even better this week against a good Bengals defense that only gave up 16 points last week. USA TODAY Sports Receiver Xavier Worthy is still going to be a Wild Card for the Chiefs until any team figures out how to slow him down. Throw in second-year receiver Rashee Rice, running back Isiah Pacheco and All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce and this team can put up some points.
They are one of the best teams at home and will come out firing in their first possession. Here is a list of today’s inactives. CHIEFS - C.
J. Hanson - Ethan Driskell - Marlon Tuipulotu - Cameron Thomas BENGALS - Tee Higgins - Cedric Johnson - Amarius Mims - Tanner McLachlan - Kris Jenkins Jr. Related: Chiefs Hit With Six-Figure Fine Following Sideline Scuffle The Bengals hope that Joe Burrow will be sharper in Week 2 than he was in the first game of the season.
Burrow completely just 21-of-29 for 164 yards and no scores in their loss last week. The offensive line will need to be better as will the defensive line. If the Bengals want a shot to win this, they have to get pressure on their front four.
The game kicks off at 3:25 p.m. CT.
