Just have some perspective that it's going to take time on both sides of the ball for this team to gel with this many new (and in many cases young) players. And that schedule is absolutely unforgiving.

I think the flip side of that is how poorly they played for 6 weeks last season and still made the AFCCG.
I could be wrong, but I think a retooling team led by Mahomes is still a playoff team.... how could it not be if teams like the brokedick Steelers and the Raiders can make the playoffs? (and I know, the schedule)
If we really need to lower expectations, I'd still set it at like losing in the divisional to the Bills partly because they finally had to go on the road for a playoff game.... and that's completely fine, because they simply won't win that kind of 50/50 game every time.
Missing the playoffs without any major injuries would be surprising, IMO.
