Some fans think a better defense will help the offense get more possessions and score even more points but I believe it's the opposite. When your defense is bad and allows tons of points, the offense has to go all out, be agressive and score tons of points too. That's kinda what it was last year.
When the defense is strong and doesn't allow too many points, the offense will get into a control the clock tempo and more runnings plays earlier during the game, making it score less points as not needing to score tons of points to win the game. It doesn't mean the offense is any worse but it just won't be as agressive and explosive throughout the game. The offense will become more concerned with just not doing any mistake and you win the game.

I don't see Mahomes ever pulling an Alex Smith. He will always be aggressive and want the big play.
