Saying this team has tons of weapons reminds me of 85% of the fanbase 7 weeks ago after KC's first preseason game. Everyone was talking about what a great roster and depth that Pioli built and it was ONLY Cassel holding the team back. Weeks later every single phase of the team stinks - passing game, running game, blocking, run D, pass D, special teams.
The reality is that these "playmakers" are questionable.
Charles - will he ever return from his knee?
Moeaki - will he ever return from his knee, plus he was overrated his rookie year.
Hillis - not effective game 1, critical fumble game 2, tons of issues last year.
WRs - being honest, McCluster MIGHT be the best WR on the team. Best route runner and better hands than Bowe. Bowe is good, but inconsistent. Baldwin has yet to emerge and Breaston has always been a complimentary player.
Paper tigers.
