Just common sense.
With the salary cap, you're not going to field a complete team. There will be weaknesses somewhere. Last year's Chiefs also struggled in short yardage and had an inferior WR group compared to Philly, Cincinnati, and Buffalo. The Eagles had a complete team and still lost in the Super Bowl. The Bengals O-Line couldn't block in key moments despite having WRs we can only dream of.
The receivers indeed suck, but if they didn't, this team would likely be undefeated now. That's the salary cap though. The defense wasn't as strong last year either. Nor in 2019.
They're one of the contenders. They're 6-2 despite these receivers because of other strengths elsewhere.
There's nothing wrong with bitching as long as the context isn't lost. They can win with this WR group, but yes there will be challenges. It's nice to have Pro-Bowlers at every position but that's rare.
