Well how loose is it? When you push up on it between the sprockets, does it hit the bottom of the swing arm? How do the sprockets look? Post a pic.

Too much slack definitely causes rattling when you take off from a dead stop. A dry chain can also cause rattling. Lube and tighten the chain. If the chain keeps drying out and slackens every time you tighten it, time for a new chain and sprocket kit.
