While Denver most certainly had more talent on offense, there shouldn't be any excuses for this defense.

But surely you can recognize the effect the poor offense has on the Chiefs' defense.
Nor did Pioli or Haley inherit a pass rusher like Dumervil or a corner like Bailey.
I don't think the Denver comparison holds any water. They had enough talent to sniff the playoffs last year....the Chiefs had enough talent to sniff the first pick in the draft.
No comparison.
