I'll explain it again, let me know if you don't understand any of it.
KC's defense is good, unlike last year. Why? I think it's because of the scheme more than the talent. I think that the aggressiveness of the scheme results in success against the pass, while leaving it vulnerable against the run. Overall, it has been extremely successful so far.
What happens to schemes as the season goes on? They get figured out and exploited by other teams.
I look for the defense to regress to its talent level (which is still pretty good, just not mid-80s Bears good) over the rest of the season. I think we've already seen this beginning to happen, with the defensive performances we saw against Case Keenum and Jason Campbell.

Holy **** you are dumb. This is one of the more talented defenses in the last decade. The scheme is just using the talent correctly
