It is bad.

The obvious step in tbe right direction is getting Jones back to DT, and back to where he earned that contract.

Frank Clark dressing for games cant hurt.

Bench Sorenson, like yesterday. I dont care who you have step in, they simply cannot be worse than Sorenson is right now.

Gay staying healthy keeps Niemann of the field.

Those are just simple roster moves.

The real task for Steve is getting these guys into some sets where they can play ball instead of guessing at what they are supposed to be doing.

Its game 5 and you still have guys having no idea what to do. That's on Steve.

Maximize the talent you have. What can they do best? Where do they play best?

Its not too late to make a run if the defense can simply rise to mediocre over horrificly bad.

Whatever changes to the scheme Steve has made need to go. The only people hes confusing withot are his own players.

Massive emphasis on teaching tackling. Because these guys cannot tackle for shit.

With Mahomes anything Is possible.Just get to mediocre.

Another issue with the defense is the offense turning the ball over. Most of those turnovers were going to be scores, just like the last few years. But now that we’re turning the ball over more, and not scoring it allows the opponent to not be as stressed about keeping up with us which can usually take most teams out of their game plans.

Chiefs aren't getting a pass rush and aren't causing any turnovers. That is the biggest problem with the defense.

Or tackling
Or covering

That video in the Clark thread just looks like a bunch of guys standing around expecting someone else to make a play. After this season we really need to blow the defense up and get a bunch of young hungry players in there.

Or stopping them from scoring

I'd get rid of Hitchens, Clark, Sorensen and Nieman.

Replace them with solid starters and things start to look a lot better.

I still really like our corner group and DTs. DE, LB and one S position have to be addressed.

It makes no sense why Spags didn’t blitz Josh Allen from the start of the game.

They did that with great success throughout the AFC Championship Game and it exposed Josh Allen’s accuracy issues.

One thing about our plan, on both offense and defense, failing so ****ing horrifically in the last game...

If we go to Buffalo in the postseason, they will not be prepared for whatever we roll out.

Britt Reid was the brains behind the defense evidently.

Chiefs Fail Thread #2,483 since Sunday night. :banghead:

COMPLETE FAILURE! This team is killing me, how in the ever loving HELL can you go to 3 consecutive AFC Championship games, have a LEAGUE MVP, a SB MVP to BACK to BACK Super Bowls and this disarray with turn overs the entire first 5 games? Please explain this to me? The Chiefs get cover 2 defenses thrown at them yet, they have no answer? How is this even possible? We are facing the same D formation week to week yet there is no answer. Mahomes "MAGIC" seems to have come and gone in 3 years! UUGGHHH!

I'm sure the Bills were aware of this just like you are. They would have been prepared for the blitzes which is why Spags probably didn't do it.

Complete Defensive failure
 

I wonder if that's the reason Spag’s defenses regress after a year or two. Is it because he introduces more and more complicated concepts that confuse everyone (or at least make them think a tad too much) as time goes on?

Things would look much different without all the turnovers on offense. Correct me if I'm wrong but 2019 our SB win year, our defense sucked balls through game 8 and then they put it all together and had the #1 defense the second half of the season thru the SB.
