Much of everyone's resentment right now stems from watching the offense consistently under preform.

I conceded that.

But if you're going to discuss this game, you have to be fair about it.

The Chiefs defense has been better than the offense all year. Yesterday it wasn't. I'd listen to an argument that it wasn't worse, but there's no way you can argue it was better.

At most, they were equally shitty. What I saw was 60/40 defense responsibility to offense, but that's not saying the offense was good. Had either the offense or defense had a truly good game, the Chiefs still win. Instead they both left room for improvement and that's how you lose at home to a pretty mediocre team.
