5.7 yds/play
406 yds/game
382 yds/game
I don't see any reason to freak out. If KC had the mediocre/bad D of past years, there'd be reason to worry. Instead, they have a vastly improved D that might be as good as any in the league.

#Chiefs had 2,294 yards of offense thru 6 games last season.
Chiefs have 2,294 yards of offense thru 6 games this year too.
But KC's 147 points are the fewest in Mahomes era at this point of season (179 last year and previous low was 172 in 2019).
However, KC has allowed 88 points, their best by 39 points since 2018.
In the end, the Chiefs are +59 thru 6 games, which is their best scoring differential in the Mahomes era.
Andy just needs to figure out how to turn FGs into TDs. Butker is on pace for 40 field goals.
