Chiefs look to increase scoring under OC Eric Bieniemy in 2026
Summary

The Kansas City Chiefs aim to improve their scoring efficiency as they prepare for the 2026 season with Eric Bieniemy returning as offensive coordinator. The team averaged 21.3 points per game last season, ranking 19th in the NFL. Bieniemy, who previously led the Chiefs to an average of 30.1 points per game from 2018 to 2022, could help elevate the offense.
