The hardest thing in the modeling data analytics world, at least for me, is
When a new piece comes in or a new coordinator, which kind of the Chiefs have both of those, how does that really affect the offense?
If they firmly get back to the top five offense in the league, even with the Super Bowl years, it kind of felt like the offense was never all the way there.
If they're able to get back to that level, it's really, really hard to be like,
oh, Kenneth Walker is going to have that type of impact on it.
And, you know, I do my best.
I have my valuation for the players to make those changes.
But that's really the key for me.
And then the other end of that is the secondary.
The secondary is that, you know, they trade away, which we've seen this.
The Chiefs have done this before to where they're not โ they're okay with not paying their corners.
And the secondary is really rough.
And, you know, Chris Jones is getting older.
Can someone else step up on that defensive line?
There is a world where the defense can kind of bottom out.
I think he can kind of squeeze the most out of that unit.
But there is a world where, like, hey, the secondary is struggling.
They never, you know, if the lane doesn't pop in year one, and then if they're showing age or there's no game breaker on the defensive line, then you can see the defense kind of fall into, like, a for sure below average unit.
then you can get some problems going.
