This team needs a lot of changes, currently they are a bad football team. Bad football teams lose every game to good football teams and sometimes win against other bad teams. They also turn the ball over minimum 2x a games. They have no focus, little fight, and seem to regress every game.
I was looking for some other info and ended up on NFL.com's team stats. I was rather surprised at the comparison between KC and their opponents.
As bad as KC's defense has been KC's offense has been better than the other team with the exception of the defense has given up exactly 1 more TD than the offense has scored.
1st downs, time of possession, yards, everything else favors KC except for 1 thing. Turnovers. KC is minus 10 in turnover ration.
I know all games/teams aren't equal in collecting the stats but a 7 game sample size isn't that small. What it comes down to is the defense just needs to get back to average and offense needs to stop turning the ball over. Hell even if the defense doesn't get to average the offense just needs to stop the turnovers.
I was surprised to see the rushing yard gained and given up aren't that far off. Seems we have given up several hundred more yards rushing than gained but its only about 75.
The defense letting the other team score the first two drives. Was something I just expected to happen most times. Then stiffen up after that. The offense not scoring the first two drives, screwed the pooch and all the balance shifted. [Reply]
Out of synch, rife with mental errors, inconsistent on offense and consistently bad on defense, but arguably the most talented team of Reid’s tenure with the Chiefs. We saw a better product in 2013 during his first year.
There’s something institutionally wrong going on behind the scenes. [Reply]

Think so too, something really wrong behind the scenes.
This is so bad, games like this is why I don't watch much NFL outside of the very few can't-miss teams.... it's a fucking dumpster fire on all sides. [Reply]
