Rams will be up for this game. Gotta be ready to match their intensity.

I lived there for a while, and the only thing that is true about LA in that is, "Maybe you were born here. Maybe you moved here."

Crunched some stats from our past 6 games in which Chiefs' defense is:

3RD in yards allowed (280.83 per game)

3RD in completion percentage allowed (60.83%)

1ST in opponent passer rating allowed (79.82)

1ST in sacks recorded (21)

3RD in tackles for loss recorded (30)

1ST in QB hits (42)

5TH in scoring allowed (20.33 ppg)

Also during this time, the Chiefs have surrendered only 8 passing TDs and have snagged 9 INTs.

Sure there were a few suspect offenses in the last six but even teams like the Jaguars and Broncos were coming off impressive performances before we buzzsaw'd them. They still give up too many yards on the ground but it is a marked improvement from the beginning of the year when we all thought an average defense would carry the day. In a lot of important categories (sacks/PPG) they are now near or at the top of the league. One stat where they've really regressed in the last six weeks was in 3rd down conversions which was 43.04% -- good for only 25th in the league.
