Chiefs What are your predictions/hopes for the defense now?

What I hope to see is roughly top half in scoring, ypc and ypa, assuming the offense continues to score at the pace we've become accustomed to. That is to say, they're going to give up total yardage, because they're going to be on the field a lot due to the clip at which the O scores, but if they can lower the per play averages allowed, and force more punts, it'll make a significant difference in the outcome of games. Even as little as one less possession for the opponent and one more for our offense, per game, would be big. Basically anything above 20 in those 3 areas, and we'll be very, very hard to keep up with, much less beat.
