Bears Lose 20-10 to Chiefs in Preseason Finale with Mixed Performances

The Chicago Bears faced a challenging preseason finale against the Kansas City Chiefs, struggling early but showing some promising signs despite the loss. First-year head coach Ben Johnson expressed dissatisfaction with the team's first-half performance, emphasizing that it was not representative of their standard. Quarterback Caleb Williams had a mixed game, starting off shaky with a sack and inaccurate throws but finishing with a touchdown during a two-minute drill against the Chiefs' backups. The Bears' offensive line stood out positively, managing decent pass protection against a strong Chiefs defensive front even without their top blocker. Running back D’Andre Swift showed effectiveness with solid yardage and strong runs, providing a bright spot amid the team's offensive inconsistencies. Defensively, the Bears struggled to pressure Patrick Mahomes, highlighting a need for improvement in the pass rush as the regular season approaches.
