The Kansas City Chiefs (10-4) travel to the Windy City to take on the Chicago Bears (7-7) Sunday night at Soldier Field. If the Chiefs can win their next two games, they have an excellent shot at the No. 2 overall seed and that much important first-round bye in the playoffs.

Patrick Mahomes is throwing the ball extremely well as of late and the Chiefs have won their last four games, including a 20-3 rout of the Broncos at home last weekend. With an AFC West title in hand after defeating the Raiders in Week 13, Mahomes completed 27 of 34 passes for 340 yards, two touchdowns against the Broncos. The running game did struggle, as Darwin Thompson led the team with just eight carries for 38 yards. It’s no secret, with weapons like the speedy Tyreek Hill and tight end Travis Kelce that KC is going to air it out. The team is ranked fifth in total offense (384.4 YPG) and third in passing (291.4 YPG).
Defensively, they held Denver to 260 yards of total offense. Tyrann Mathieu paved the way with five tackles and one sack, while rookie Juan Thornhill added four tackles and an interception. The unit added linebacker Terrell Suggs from the Cardinals this week. Suggs is a hard-nosed, gritty linebacker, who brings a veteran presence and Super Bowl experience to the team. While Kansas City is 11th in pass defense (225.1 YPG), the team has struggled against the run, ranking 26th (131.5 YPG).
The Chicago Bears are eliminated from playoff contention, but that won’t stop them from trying to play spoiler in their final stretch of the season. Chicago fell 21-13 last week to the Packers in a game that saw quarterback Mitch Trubisky throw the ball 53 times. He completed just 29 of those attempts for a total of 334 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. Both teams will need to get their running game going to take the pressure off their quarterbacks.
While the Chiefs rank near the top of most major offensive categories, the Bears are near the bottom. This game will come down to the Kansas City offense against a Chicago defense that is third in points allowed (18.1 PPG). Can the defensive front put pressure on Mahomes and how will the secondary stack up against the Chiefs offensive weapons?
