Lol, crazy how people remember the SB.
Check the play-by-play; our "number one ranked offense" did what in the first half of the SB?
TD
MISSED FG
PUNT
PUNT
If not for a stellar play by the defense the score going into the half would've been 7-24.
Also, after that first TD, the Chiefs offense basically couldn't stay on the field, and left the defense out there for 22 minutes (offense was only on the field for 8 minutes in the first half).
And finally, the Chiefs defense allowed just 11 points in the second half, and that plus the strip sack return for 6 is the reason KC won the SB.
But it does highlight yet another example for why I'm not comfortable with the WR room. Several times in 2022 the offense stalled for several series in a row, just as they did in the first half of the SB, and now two of the most productive WRs for the Chiefs have left for greener pastures. But we won, so now a lot of people suddenly think that Andy/Veach can just throw any scrub on the field and we're certain to repeat.
We barely beat JAX. A team that wasn't very good playing man/press, with a new HC, a new offense for Trevor, and yet we still were forced to punt five times in that game.
And so on.
The defense is fine. We could literally re-sign Frank and Dunlap and do nothing else, and we'd have a top-12 defense.
The offense needs a talent infusion.
