This defense was absolutely gored by oakland and denver's running attacks. Leveon Bell has them circled on his calendar. Quit making excuses for them. They're getting outmanned on a regular basis at this point, and the pass rush isn't producing like it should either. I know you'll stick to a losing argument until the bitter end, so I'll just let you be now.

CP said last year that the 2013 team was barely beating shitty teams playing shitty backup QBs. According to CP, if we took the 2013 team and played against the 2014 schedule, the Chiefs would get annihilated. The 2014 team is 7-6 with 4 of those losses coming on the final drive. Either CP was DEAD WRONG last season when it ended or this team improved.
The key point to the OP is if we improved. That should mean "how much better is our HEALTHY roster in 2014 over a HEALTHY roster in 2013." So take our 7-6 team and add these guys in.
-Allen > McGlynn
-DJ > Mauga
-Berry > Parker
All three of the above... Not even by a little. A LOT.
-Avery > Jenkins > Hammond
Constant injuries to Owens, Gaines, Fleming. Devito, Catapano, and Demetrius Harris could have provided quality depth (the Chiefs were having a lot of success with 3 TE sets before Harris went down to injury)
We are a better team this year with a bruised up roster. We are probably a much better team when fully healthy. And that's not even talking about how we shed unbelievable amount of payroll and stockpiled comp picks.
