Unsurprisingly, the Chiefs didn’t make any major moves in the offseason after winning another championship a season ago. Bringing in Hollywood Brown is intriguing, given how good Patrick Mahomes can make receivers look in big spots. But overall, the Chiefs should look very similar to what we saw a season ago, which should mean that they will be a very good football team once again.
Kansas City Chiefs Offensive Stats
2023 (Rank) | 2022 (Rank) | |
---|---|---|
Yards Per Play | 5.6 (T-7th) | 6.3 (1st) |
Yards Per Rush Attempt | 4.3 (T-10th) | 4.7 (T-9th) |
Yards Per Pass Attempt | 6.9 (T-19th) | 7.9 (T-2nd) |
Points Per Game | 21.8 (15th) | 29.2 (1st) |
Turnovers | 28 (T-23rd) | 23 (T-17th) |
The scary thing about the Chiefs is the fact that they weren’t that great offensively last season. Patrick Mahomes had a group of receivers that routinely dropped catchable balls in big spots, which held them back from being even better than they had been in years past. If that sorts itself out this year, the Chiefs could be even better than they were during last year’s run to the title.
Kansas City Chiefs Defensive Stats
2023 (Rank) | 2022 (Rank) | |
---|---|---|
Yards Per Play Allowed | 4.8 (5th) | 5.2 (T-9th) |
Yards Per Rush Attempt Allowed | 4.4 (T-22nd) | 4.4 (T-15th) |
Yards Per Pass Attempt Allowed | 5.5 (T-2nd) | 6.1 (T-6th) |
Points Per Game Allowed | 17.3 (2nd) | 21.7 (16th) |
Takeaways | 17 (T-27th) | 20 (T-20th) |
Where the Chiefs hung their hat last season was the defensive side of the ball. This group was elite on defense and they should be great on defense again this year, as genius defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is set to lead them in 2024. This group finished second only to the Ravens in scoring defense last year and they should be near the top of that list again.
Positives & Negatives
There are more positives for the Chiefs than there are for most other teams, by virtue of them winning the Super Bowl. But the biggest of those positives is the presence of Patrick Mahomes, who can improvise and make plays that very few other quarterbacks can make. And he can do so in the biggest spots imaginable, meaning that the Chiefs are never truly out of a game.
If there is a negative to point out with this Chiefs team, it is their running game. That is the weakest facet of their game by far, but that is only because the passing game and defense for this team is so much better. The Chiefs will be fine, even if they don’t typically pound the rock as effectively as other teams.
2024 Kansas City Chiefs Win Total Prediction: Over 11.5 Wins
Barring some bad injury luck, the Chiefs should be one of the last teams standing in the NFL playoffs again this year. As far as the regular season goes, we expect them to win another 12 games or so. Therefore, we will take them to go over their season win total after getting burned on their over a season ago.
