The difference here is: the titans defense is nowhere near as good as the 90 chiefs.
If mahomes has time to throw (like he did Sunday), we'll be just fine.

Gonna be a big game for Wiz, Reiter and LDT.
Casey is the wild-card. I'm not worried about Brantley blowing things up and Wake' injury leaves them without a complementary pass-rusher. So if they're going to wreak havoc, it will have to come from the inside.
Jurrell Casey is a good player and a solid interior rusher. But he's not Aaron Donald or even Chris Jones. He's not Dontari Poe. He can be dealt with.
But if we DON'T deal with him, he can make for a long day for Patrick just as he did for Jackson. So it will be critically important for the IOL to step up and neutralize him.
If they do, this game probably goes pretty smoothly. He's the only guy on that team I can see really messing things up for us because if he's making trouble, that's when someone like Byard can go make a play. Byard's not gonna fool Mahomes if he has time. But if Mahomes is under pressure, that's when Byard can make some things happen.
Neutralize Casey and you do a lot to neuter the Titans defensive playmakers. From that point, the Chiefs can cruise to 30+
