Berry was playing well before the inj. That's really the only concern I have is whether or not he's gonna be the same player.
Houston on the other hand I'm afraid is past his prime. Gone are the days of 14-15 sack seasons. I'll agree he needs to step up his game, and he's a solid run defender, but he's being paid $100M to sack the QB. And he's not doing that at the level the Chiefs need to him to be at. Chiefs are just gonna be stuck in that contract for the foreseeable future. And I don't expect Ford, even in a contract yr, to really make up for Houston's lack of pressure.
Will Tanoh Kpass show anything this yr? Doubtful, but it'd be a nice surprise. Chiefs need something like that to happen, because I think overall their pass D is gonna be in some major trouble. Chiefs may have to score 30+ ppg to hang in games.
