Kansas City Chiefs vs Chicago Bears predictions
The Kansas City Chiefs know what they have as defending champions, but they haven't really trained any of their key players seriously because of it. That's led to bad results. The Chicago Bears are a young team still figuring things out, and players who perform well in these exhibitions will get playing time. It's no surprise that the Bears are winning in the preseason. They've won eight of their last 10 preseason games. Don't fix what's not broken. Root for the Bears and a few of their players on this great Thursday night.
