Why does everyone think the Chiefs have a "great defense"? It's actually quite bad.

Well our two DE's(Chiefs) were two of the best in the NFL in terms of stopping the run, and we drafted one of the most talented NT's in the league to fill the third spot. The DL's main job is to take up blockers for the LB's to make plays, and to stop the run. Poe is a huge upgrade from size and talent alone. His job is completely different than it was in college too, with size and speed alone he can take up two or three blockers on any given play allowing Dorsey or Jackson to only be single blocked a lot more often allowing our DL to also get to the QB more which is more of a luxery in our scheme. Poe can collapse the pocket, something we have seriously lacked.
