Kansas City Chiefs Defense

✦ Blitz AI

Kansas City's defense rates as an elite unit at the 74.5 level, ranked 8th among all defenses. The rating has dropped 15.8 points from its prior calculation, primarily because it is being blended toward the established baseline from their 2024 season as the sample size stabilizes. With only four games played so far, the current 2026 data carries just 40% weight against their 2024 performance of 74.2, while the raw 2026 score of 80.7 itself is being pulled toward the position average due to insufficient games for a full evaluation. Kansas City's best work shows in points allowed per game (90th percentile) and yards allowed per game (76th percentile), but their pass rush has been noticeably weaker, with sacks per game landing in the 26th percentile.
