Yeah, if that's been the trend for 3+ games that's not something you can fix in one week. When the Chiefs went down 24-0 I knew it wasn't that big of a problem because HOU was the worst RZ defense in the league, allowing TDs about 75% of the time.
Meanwhile the Chiefs were scoring TDs about 66% of the time when they got into the RZ, and that included when Pat was out and we were starting Moore.
And shocker, every drive we had that got into the RZ ended in a TD.
HOU knew damn well they were terrible in the RZ, and couldn't do a thing about it.
TEN was second-worst in the league in the RZ, and of course we took them to the woodshed as well. They tried everything to keep us out of the RZ, but once we got in there, it was over.
Btw, last year when our offense was healthy for the year, we scored TDs in the RZ about 73% of the time.
Now our offense is finally healthy and have had a few hundred snaps together to gel.
So every time we get into the RZ against SF, don't be surprised when we score TDs, not FGs.
