Yeah because the defense getting better after week 10 has never happened before. :-)

Did it improve before T-Siz showed up yes, but it had a completely different feel to it after he arrived. Lets hope the transformation happens again this year. Right now Jones and Clark are stealing a paycheck. [Reply]

Always jump to 2018. Always.
Never remember 2019.
Was just thinking about that. Remembered about this time last season KC was 6 -4 having just BLOWN the Titans game. The defense started improving after that game and never looked back. There's no reason to think KC cant improve on defense again this season...Defense as a whole is down across the league this season. IMO we can improve it enough for our offense to win games. That's what this team is built to do. [Reply]

He's not good at covering hall of fame tight ends, either [Reply]

Not a damn thing. We need to work on the defense this offseason. Niemann, Sorenson, Damien Wilson and KPass should all be gone. [Reply]

Pretty certain the last 3 will be not sure about Niemann...some team is gonna give Sorenson enough money we'll probably get a good draft pick for him. [Reply]

I see where you're coming from but it's selective memory.
Suggs played in 2 games and they surrendered 3 and 21 points respectively.
The 4 games prior (immediately after the Titans game to signing Suggs) - 17, 9, 16, and 3. [Reply]

Yeah, this is important to keep in mind actually.
This article is from November 6th but the point is valid - 2020 is on pace to shatter dozens of offensive records.
