The 2022 NFL season has nearly arrived.
The Kansas City Chiefs are getting prepared to face the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Arizona. They’re hoping it won’t be the last time they grace the site of Super Bowl LVII this season. The team is also hoping to carry over some of the Week 1 success they’ve had over the years.
The Chiefs have an 8-1 record in season-opening games since 2013 when Andy Reid first became head coach of the team. Five of those nine games have come on the road and those were all victories. That bodes well for Kansas City as they head into Arizona and get 2022 underway.
