A forewarning, I don’t consider the Broncos 16-22 loss to the Chiefs encouraging. Yes, they have the best quarterback in football and came into the game with a full compliment of weapons. They also had a shaky offensive line battered by injury and Covid along with very susceptible run defense. So much so, that the cliché recipe for beating Patrick Mahomes looked attainable long before kickoff. As pessimistic as I tend to be, I wrote about it.
At least by the numbers, the Chiefs aren’t even the best team in the NFL right now.
