I was hoping to use the next game the Panthers played as a judgement of the Chiefs defense however without McCaffrey, the Panthers are pretty toothless. The Bucs absolutely destroyed them after they got wiped out by the Saints.
I just think there's a lot of parity and just because the Chiefs have the best QB in the league, doesn't guarantee a victory.

Panthers were in the game for most of the match. They were within one score I believe midway into the 3rd quarter when Jones had the long run and they just fell apart. That same TB team got shutdown by both NO and CHI. LV beat NO but got stomped by TB. You can't do that kind of NFL math predicting who is better than whom. Last year we went 11-5 during the regular season and stomped several teams we struggled with once the playoffs came around.
It's pretty obvious the team's biggest issue is motivation, and they're playing their cards close to the vest. Do you honestly watch the Raiders game and Ravens game and think KC put the same effort in against both teams? They likely took LV too lightly, which was a mistake, but I have zero doubt that if they had game planned in the same manner they do for the playoffs that game wouldn't have been the same.
How many years have we seen New England lose relatively meaningless regular season games against division and other opponents (including KC) only to destroy teams when it really mattered?
Again, unwarranted overreaction on your part.
