Every drive is a struggle, Mahomes is begging for flags constantly, and we have to contract the Barnum and Bailey Circus to try to convert 3rd and 1, just to fail.
The bye is coming at the perfect time, because there's a lot of shit wrong under the hood of this offense.

I wouldn’t say the offense is struggling to fire at all. They are definitely not what we are used to seeing and they could always improve. What we do have for the first time in the Mahomes era is a championship caliber defense. That give this offense time to figure it out.
The great part about all of this Mahomes no longer has to be the hero for us to win. I still expect the offense to be better by the end of the season than they are now. I also expect that fans need to temper expectations some as I don’t see an offense that will weekly put up 40 points, at least not this year.
