The bigger weakness is the non existent pass rush. The DL is the weak link of the defense. Has been for years, which is why the Chiefs can look great on defense one week and next get run all over. The Rams had no problems running the ball up the middle at will. Their # 1 OL totally dominated our #1 DL. Until the Chiefs get a solid DL, the up and down play will continue. This is the reason why I couldn't understand how all off season some kept saying how awesome our defense is / was. It's only gonna be as good as the DL will let it be.
