Folks wanna spout this bullshit and put blame on the offense...the only offense in history to score at least 26 points in every single game in a season. 3rd best offense in history, with a QB who hit 5k in yards and 50 TDs....and the only other 2 qbs who did that both went to the Super Bowl.
This defense was absolutely as bad as everyone thinks it is.

Please take a step back from that ledge my friend. I know we are all upset they lost - but no - it is not historically bad. It is actually by design to give up yardage when the Chiefs are winning and give up garbage points. Now, you can argue if we play prevent style defense too much when up, because yes we do. So I do agree Bob needed to be gone - but this absolutely was not a historically bad defense. It was just a normal bad NFL defense. There were at least 5 teams with worse defenses than us.
The good news is we have some talent, and if we can just get a better scheme, we really have a chance to improve.
Nobody is blaming the offense, but that is simply the reality. When your QB throws 50 QBs and you have the 3rd highest scoring offense of all time - it DOES put strain on your defense. There is no way around this. It is an unquestionable fact.
