The Kansas City Chiefs don’t have a great track record against the Cincinnati Bengals in recent seasons and are looking to exorcise some demons against their newest AFC rivals on Sunday. While the play of quarterback Patrick Mahomes is sure to define the game, the performance of their defense against Joe Burrow may come to be the factor that determines the final outcome.
In comments to the media on Thursday, defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo made it clear that getting Burrow to the ground was his top priority in this week’s matchup. Though he didn’t reveal his game plan, he described the challenge that Burrow poses when he drops back to pass.
