Had the Chiefs won in Week 1, their defense would have been a much bigger story. Without star defensive lineman Chris Jones, the Chiefs did a good job against the Detroit Lions' offense. Detroit scored one of its three touchdowns on a pick-six. The focus on the Chiefs after the game was the 21-20 loss, not the defense looking pretty good. That was understandable.
The story for the Chiefs through Mahomes' time as their quarterback has been that the offense was awesome and the defense would usually be good enough. That was good enough for two Super Bowl rings. The Chiefs' offense will eventually be awesome this season too, though it's off to a mediocre start. The defense looks much improved. The Chiefs have allowed 23 points in two games, if we remove the Lions' interception return touchdown, to two good offenses.
Smith's ability to repeat a very good 2022 season was questioned through the offseason. It looked in Week 1 like the critics might be right. Maybe Smith won't fade away so quickly.Harbaugh doesn't quite get the respect he deserves. He's clearly one of the best coaches in the NFL and has been for a while.
The Ravens are an impressive 2-0. Given the Bengals' struggles and how Joe Burrow was limping after the game, they're in a good spot in the AFC North.You might have disagreed with the Atlanta Falcons taking a running back eighth overall in the draft, but everyone knew they got a good one. Richardson looked great early on. Richardson looks like prime Cam Newton, a massive quarterback with a cannon arm and great running skills as well. He scored two rushing touchdowns and looked great on both of them. One was for 18 yards and the other was for 15. The Colts led 14-0.
The Chargers are continuing their lackluster ways this season. They're 0-2 after blowing another late lead. The Tennessee Titans drove downfield and scored with 2:22 left in the fourth quarter to take a 24-21 lead. The Chargers answered with a field goal to force overtime, but got nothing going on their first overtime drive and allowed the Titans to move downfield and win the game right after that. Tennessee kicked a field goal and won 27-24.
