Can't say I've ever seen one, but mostly ignore him for that very reason.. I assume it's trolling, because I like to pretend people really aren't that ****ing stupid.

Imagine going this reerunned after WINNING a Superbowl starting that many rookies on defense. It's insane.

The Chiefs are an offensive team. Yes, you want a good defense, but "good" is relative here.
You aren't gonna build a lock down 2000 Ravens type defense with the finances being what they are. A good defense here gets a turnover a game and forces a couple punts and a fg or two instead of a TD. Keep teams under 24-28 points and you're fine. |

Teams also play us hyper aggressively on offense and play catch up alot which skews things. They are gambling more on 4th downs, looking for 7 not 3...etc.

The dude ALWAYS tries to steer every discussion about any player or coach into an opportunity to call everybody on CP a racist. He's nothing if not consistent. |

I don't get how people can watch the Chiefs' offense routinely have their way against the "top defenses" of the league while also expecting the defense to consistently play really well against other top offenses.

I think this defense is one plus DE and some DT depth away from being top 10 in '23. I really do.

Veach drafts well, so that helps. At this point I think having a Top 15-20 defense while keeping Mahomes upright with solid weapons is probably going to be the most ideal strategy regarding resources. Perhaps they can bring in some aging vets who want to chase a ring, failed first rounders that need a second chance, and solid draft picks on defense and occasionally catch lightning in a bottle and have a Top 10 defense, but those will most likely be rare. |

^ Truth. Our offense impacts our defense's numbers. Teams know KC will score and a lot so they have to do things they normally don't. Since Patrick started it is well known that kicking FGs is a way to lose. Teams have to score TDs.

We're terrible in short yardage situations, especially on 3rd and 4th down. Just watch how the Eagles or Chargers do it when they're being aggressive. They run QB sneaks. One, we don't even run QB sneaks. And second, when we do run in short yardage, we get stoned pretty much every time. It's kind of baffling actually, considering the strengths of our linemen. |

I would be curious however with how effective teams are in 4th and 2. Do they convert at a higher % than KC? |
