These teams have far more defensive depth and talent than they do offensive ability. Both are also rebuilding their offensive lines, making many adjustments and changes in camp daily. Kansas City runs a conservative, safe, run-first offense under Andy Reid and he will be more vanilla than usual in preseason week one opening on the road. The Chiefs have managed to address most of their pressing needs on defense during training camp. The UNDER is 42-19-1 in the Chiefs last 62 games on grass. The K.C. QB rotation is not impressive with Alex Smith, Chase Daniel, Aaron Murray and Tyler Bray. Starting WRs Jeremy Maclin (neck strain) and Albert Wilson have been banged-up and missed some practice this week, so they've been going with Frankie Hammond Jr. and Fred Williams. Other than Maclin and Jason Avant, the Chiefs are extremely young at wide receiver. Kansas City scored 16 and 14 points in two road preseason games a year ago. Arizona has a weak offensive line with little running ability, still a one-dimensional offense. They do have plenty of defense, though. The UNDER gets call in this one.
