Funny how things work out...
Improved and improving is correct. The D will continue to get incrementally better. The bad news is that they will be limited by the talent on the team.
At this moment, the strength of the team is at S & maybe DT. Woods and Wesley is a very good tandem. Sims and Siavii could be monsters in time. Unfortunately, the talent at the remaining positions is average. Hicks and Browning are serviceable DEs, but they are not top-tier players. Barber is an average talent. Mitchell and Beisel are still learning the position; Mitchell has more upside and we do not know how good he will eventually be. Fujita is a keeper. Warfield is an average CB [who is about to do some hard time]. McCleon is adequate at best.
There will be improvement, but only up to a point. It will take better players to get this D to the next level. Unfortunately, the improvement on D has been matched by decay on the O. There is no way this D can be good enough to make up the gap caused by the suckage of the O in the first two games.

Did not anticipate the Chiefs D playing better than the O this season.
