In addition to getting reamed on the ground by the Raiders, the Chiefs gave up game-controlling rushing yardage to a very pedestrian New England offense operating with only about 10% of their playbook - this after an off-season devoted mainly to shoring up the run defense.
On top of that - and even more important in the long run - the Chiefs have NO semblance of a pass rush. Despite spending two of Edward's first three 1st-round picks on the DL and three of his four biggest free-agent signings on linebackers.
