GB is a loss, unfortunately.

The Bengals are always beatable, although they're a talented team... But, we'll have Sean Smith back in time to face AJ Green. Hopefully he's not rusty.

Bears, Vikings, Steelers are all winnable games. Should win 2 of 3.

Lions game is up in the air, could go either way.

Then after the Bye we lose to Denver, but we can follow up winning 2 or 3 of the next 4 vs @SD, Buf, @Oak, SD at home.

Then the last 3 we are capable of winning 2 of 3, @Bal, CLE, OAK.

The fact is, this is a talented as hell Chiefs team. We'll put up decent points, and the defense has potential to be top 5 if the secondary holds up.

You mean if the Front Seven holds up, secondary isn't the problem.

Absolutely it is.

The LB group is the best in the league with DJ back.

The DL with Poe playing the majority of the season next to Bailey is solid. Devito is ok.

In the secondary we're asking 2 unproven CB's to step up for Sean Smith. Marcus Peters might get beat around at first. We don't know yet. But how often does a rookie CB come in and dominate from day one? It rarely ever happens. The safeties are fairly average, hopefully Tyvon Branch stays healthy for once.
