The Score Doesn’t Tell The Story In Kansas City Chiefs’ Preseason Finale
When you look at the surface reports of the Kansas City Chiefs 24-3 loss to the Green Bay Packers in Thursday night’s NFL preseason finale it would be easy to see discouragement.

Kansas City Chiefs Look Terrible In 44-14 Loss To Seattle Seahawks
If Seattle Seahawks’ quarterback Russell Wilson wins the starting job for his team when the regular season opens on September 9, he can send a big thank-you note to the secondary for the Kansas City Chiefs.

Interesting Storylines Loom As Kansas City Chiefs Host Seattle Seahawks
The Kansas City Chiefs take the field against the Seattle Seahawks tonight for Week 3 of the NFL preseason and in spite of playing at home, the Chiefs are a three-point underdog coming in, a fairly significant lack of respect from linesmakers who are usually much more conservative with their numbers.
