The Chiefs took down the Green Bay Packers 13-7 on Sunday, and if you’d offered that outcome to Chiefs fans before the season they’d have grabbed it in a heartbeat. That it happened without Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers on the field doesn’t matter in the standings. The Chiefs improved to 5-4 with the victory.
Star columnists Vahe Gregorian and Sam Mellinger along with beat writers Herbie Teope and Sam McDowell discussed the game with host Blair Kerkhoff on SportsBeat Live, which is now presented as a SportsBeat KC podcast.
We broke down the continued troubles for Patrick Mahomes and the offense — although no turnovers for the first time since the opener is a nice achievement. We also talk about the good things the Chiefs’ defense and special teams delivered.
