The Chiefs have scored 399 points as a team.

That is good for 3rd in the league, behind only the , and the bears.
Well, do you want to talk about yardage or points?

The offense does miss out on opportunities to accumulate yards, not only due to lost possessions but due to possessions that start deep in the other team's side of the field. The defense and special teams are scoring but even moreso, they're giving the offense great field position.

The flip side of that coin, though, is that if the above is true, it's also likely true that the offense is accumulating points they wouldn't otherwise score...
