Instant analysis of Chiefs’ Week 1 win over Cardinals

Lightning-fast analysis of the #Chiefs’ Week 1 game against the #Cardinals.

The Kansas City Chiefs started off the 2022 NFL season with a strong performance in all phases of the game.

Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid and Eric Bieniemy had the offense looking in midseason form. Steve Spagnuolo’s young defense gave up the fewest points of his Chiefs tenure in a Week 1 opener. Special teams had some gutsy performances in the kicking game with Harrison Butker dealing with a tender ankle.

The injury bug was prevalent, however, with several players getting dinged up and a few exiting the game with injuries. That could come into play in Week 2.

So what else did we learn about the Chiefs in their first action of the 2022 NFL season?
