We lost six games. Putting it down to just the receivers is way too simplistic

This year, it's not the WRs (though the injuries to both Hollywood and Rice were huge), but we have serious issues at OT and a problem at RG, we can't rush the passer, we can't cover TEs, and our secondary is giving up a lot more big plays. We've endured a rash of injuries unprecedented in the Mahome's' era.

1. We have a proven LT about to step in
2. That RG has proven himself on the biggest stage. Mentioning him is like mentioning Mahomes playing poorly. What's the point?
3. We just got three sacks and our second best rusher has returned.
4. The issue has beeb mainly Johnson giving up big plays. He's been benched now
5. Good TE's get their's. The average TE's have not hurt KC

Then to top it off, Mahomes has not been close to his MVP-level self once this season.

He's been very good since Hopkins arrived.

Bottom line, there's a lot more problems this year than last, and that's more concerning. And we're trying to do the impossible, threepeat. In the face of all of that, it just feels like a bigger, tougher mountain to climb.

Imo this is a silly take. Last year WE LOST FIVE IN OUT GAMES!!...got embarrassed by Denver, embarrassed by the Raiders, out fought at Greenbay and gave away games vs the Lions and Eagles. How the hell is this year "worse"?? Smh
