Yah ...
This isn't sack city any more. It just isn't. Based on the roster we have, the Chiefs have to play a different kind of defense ... it's not as "exciting", but it also doesn't need to be in order to win.
It's also probably worth remembering that a lot of these guys are new-ish to Sutton's defense. Ragland and Hitchens didn't get a lot of reps during camp or PS, two of the corners are basically learning the defense on the fly, and Parker just walked in a couple of days before the first game.
Plus, we've played away games in high heat against some pretty good QBs and skill players. The defense will improve.
