nothing. Their main problem is ILBs and stopping the run, they have NEVER address that issue and now they have no pass rush LOL.
Maybe they are a candidate to trade Armstead He'd make a solid run stopper as a DT. Too bad he comes with a 9 million dollar price tag. Probably the only thing that prevents this from being an option for them.

Last year the 1, 2, 3 and 4 scoring offense made the conference Finals. I think it's obvious KC's plan is let's hope that trend continues. Defensively they're screwed.

KC has a half like they did against the pats in the first half they're losing no matter how good their offense is. Unless they draft pro bowlers in every round in the draft their d is even worse if that's even possible.

He's not going to duplicate what he did last year. Defenses adapt.

There's no adapting to getting flat out beat by better players (Kelce, Hill, Hunt). He won't duplicate last season because he lost Hunt, and probably Hill to suspension. If he didn't lose his elite weapons, he'd more than likely tear the league apart again next year.

That's what they said about CK LOL. Mahomes has way more talent but Andy Reid doesn't care about his D.

Kap didn't throw for 5k yards though and 300 yards a game. Like not even close. Typically it's the scramblers who get figured out that's not Mahomes.

Funny, you never cut Alex Smith any of that slack (even though he's also only 1 player of a team sport), Mahomes will get no slack in his 2nd year with that horrible D. He will have to carry his team every game from now on (That's what a MVP does right? Same with Rodgers, where was he last year lol?) cause Andy Reid don't care about his D. The pressure is ON GL LOL!!!

If you weren't so biased, you would see that this is exactly what he did last season.

I'm not cutting him any slack. It's just dumb to think there was anything to figure out about KCs offense last year.
Their players were just better than the opposing defenders. They could give you their entire playbook, but at the end of the day Hill is going to blow by the secondary, Kelce will beat safeties/LBs, and Hunt will get his. That combo was too much to handle. Even Alex Smith had a good year with those weapons, that's how deadly that combo was.

NFL D's are pretty good man. They learn. They loose hill and they are in deep shlit trouble.
