I also think we need to understand defense in the NFL is dead. Sure, you can play the shithouse teams like the Bills have had and stymie them. Great.

But look at the Panthers. Best defense in the league. Until they played a good offense. Then it wasn't anymore and they gave up 36 points.

Defense just doesn't win in the league anymore against elite offenses. It's too hard.

So, get yourself an elite offense and get a D that will get 2 punts, a turnover and not be an absolute sieve.

I can buy into that...Problem is, KC has an absolute sieve.
