Chiefs carry the NFL’s highest standard, so it’s easy to nitpick: SportsBeat KC podcast
The Chiefs head to Houston on Sunday with a chance to clinch their seventh straight AFC West title, and their dominance in the division is an amazing thing.
But the Chiefs have shown some flaws in their past two outings. They split games with Cincinnati and Denver and have had issues on the defensive side and with turnovers — too many given away and not enough taken.
On today’s episode of the SportsBeat KC podcast, beat writers Herbie Teope and Jesse Newell and columnist Sam McDowell break down the Chiefs, warts and all. We discuss Patrick Mahomes’ recent performances and discuss his league MVP chances. We also get into some issues that persist in the Chiefs’ secondary.
The Chiefs have been so good for several years that their standards are the NFL’s highest: it’s Super Bowl or disappointment. What must improve for the Chiefs to reach that bar again?
