You are talking about one or two defenses in the NFL with that personnel...Vikings and Jacksonville?...maybe the Eagles?

Telvin Smith's one of the few LBs in the league that can minimize Kelce's impact. And when he can pass him off to Myles Jack...shit man, that's absolutely a Kelce-Killer sort of personnel group.
Ramsey and Bouye are the best pair of corners in football. No, Ramsey can't stay on Hill 1-1 all day but with help from Gipson he'll be okay. Hayden is a credible nickel and a hell of an athlete in his own right. Watkins/Bouye may be where we have to make our money out wide.
Can you imagine how good that defense would be if they'd have taken the CLEARLY better player in Leonard Williams when they took Fowler? Obviously his injury impacted things, but the idea that Fowler should've gone ahead of a guy who was a credible 1.1 candidate is just laughably stupid. Darius, Jackson and Campbell is scary enough on its own.
The Jags are the only group in football that can line up personnel for personnel and stand toe to toe with this Chiefs offense. It's nasty.
