There is a good read right now on PFF about the improvements in Lamar's numbers this year against the blitz and what KC may do to try and slow him down. I would link to it, but apparently as a new poster I don't have that ability.

No, not all blitzes are the same. Nor are all teams that blitz the same. The Chiefs are far superior to the Texans in pass defense. And yes, Lamar is an amazing player, he's not an elite passing QB. He's a very good passing QB (better the last couple of years from the few games I've seen) but not great. But he is an elite runner and that makes up for other areas (and some).
