Last season the Chiefs defense (and maybe Andy, don't recall) kept things very vanilla when they went to Cincy.
They lost that battle, but won the war, because the defensive wrinkles Spags wanted to use against the Bengals were unveiled in the AFC Championship and held their offense at bay just enough for gimpy Mahomes to drag us over the finish line late.
Will Spags come into this game guns blazing and try to take out the Dolphins early this season? OR will he keep his cards hidden for the real season?

Guns blazing in the regular season game and guns blazing in the playoffs. Two aggressive game plans aren’t mutually exclusive. Spags has been around a long time & this defense is versatile. I can easily see a scenario where the game plan is equally aggressive vs. Miami & in the playoffs, but in different ways. (Available defensive personnel & opposing offensive personnel will also play a role in the game plan.)
