Chicago Bears vs. Kansas City Chiefs Analysis
Through two games this season, the Chicago Bears have already been outscored by 28 points. Not a good start in the Windy City. Justin Fields has not done well, as his NFL Player Stats show he has thrown for two touchdowns and three interceptions.
The NFL Team Stats for the Bears and their running game are also miserable, as Fields, Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson have just 176 yards on the ground in 38 carries.
The Bears are 31st in defense, allowing 32.5 points per game. Chicago has faced Jordan Love and Baker Mayfield, both considered bottom-half starting quarterbacks in the league. The Bears will look to get back on track in this one before the Broncos come to town for Week 4 and before a trip to Washington on Thursday Night Football for Week 5.
MVP Contender in Early Season
Patrick Mahomes has not done anything negative to hurt his NFL MVP Odds through two weeks. Mahomes numbers do not look exceptional, but 531 yards and four touchdowns will work. Justin Watson leads the team with 107 yards, but that will eventually move to Travis Kelce, who missed Week 1.
Isaiah Pacheco leads the running back core for the Chiefs, with 20 carries and 93 yards. Kansas City is 6th in the league in passing yards with 262 per game while rushing for just shy of 100 per game. The Chiefs have the Bears here and then are at the Jets and Vikings in their next two games before back-to-back divisional games at home against the Broncos and Chargers.

Chicago Bears vs. Kansas City Chiefs Betting Pick and Prediction
This has ugly written all over it. The Chicago Bears have not been good to start the season. The offense has not moved the ball like many thought they would, and the defense cannot get off the field. The defense has not faced anyone like they will face on Sunday, either.
Patrick Mahomes is a different beast and should run and throw all over the Chicago defense. It is a bad look to start 0-3 when you intended to win your division. But Chicago will start 0-3, with a double-digit loss in Week 3.
- For our Bears vs Chiefs best bets: Take the Kansas City Chiefs -12.5 over the Chicago Bears.
