So all you chicken littles, dont be scared. This D is plenty good enough to win a SB. We good y'all.

Yeah, here's the thing. It's not a good defense yet. Not really average overall, but it's passable.
All offseason that's all we wanted.
There's definitely room for improvement, but when they go out and give up less than 400 yards of offense, 4.5 ypc and 19 points, well, it's hard for me to get that upset at them.
Sure, they need to be better, but if you had told me before the game that's what they're gonna do, I'd have said the Chiefs win 38-19.
It's an offensive squad. They do the heavy lifting.
