Our defense is the only unit on this team that has consistently showed up this season so far. They are currently 13th against the pass, 9th against the run, and 17th/pts against, with only three points separating them from a top-10 ranking in that regard. Statistically, this is the best start the Chiefs' defense has had in the Mahomes era by a significant margin.

Even last week, in spite of all the blunders the rest of the team saddled the defense with The D allowed just one TD and one FG in the second half, while the offense managed just one FG.

I still haven't had the chance to review even a highlight reel of the IND game, so I can't really comment on just how the offense fared, but on paper the defense is the last of our worries. As long as they play at least as well as they have been the last three weeks, they'll be fine.

And I'm just not worried about the ST. Toub will never let that fiasco from last week happen again, and I'm good with that. Butker will be back soon enough and really there's nothing wrong with them other than cleaning up some decision-making issues that will be solved in practice this week.

Let's see the offense finally get their shit together.

I wasn’t criticizing our defense. Like at all

The Bugs defense matches up well with our offense which means our defense is going to have to be on their game to keep Tampa to a lower score

I actually think we can have a top 12 defense this year, but I didn’t want to hype them up so much since it’s only Week 3.

I think our defense may have the attitude and talent to steal the show in Tampa…

We’ll see

No worries, I wasn't arguing against your post in particular, really. It was just convenient to use your post, as there are plenty of CPers that have been shitting on the defense this season (again), so I just went path of least resistance by using your post (least amount of scrolling). No offense or whatever intended.

Buccaneers may look tough but they are no match for my favorite team The Kansas City Chiefs!
