Yes.
We can still just have a shit game and lose to anyone. But when KC loses, it's rarely about the opponent.
As we get further into the season that seems to happen less and less, though. Just from memory it seems we do that earlier in the season usually before we round into play-off shape.

I like that way of putting it and would also add that the Chiefs are the hunted, with teams specifically being built to beat them, and of course divisional games add a layer of difficulty.
Other teams have that incentive to win in Sept/Oct and prove something (like the Chiefs used to) where as the Chiefs are playing relatively vanilla and hanging out until the real season starts.
