Point: Of Course!
The Chiefs got off to a slow start losing to Houston and Chicago, but Houston is not the cellar dweller they've always been. Furthermore, those games were on the road, without star DE Jared Allen, and featuring a rusty Larry Johnson. LJ will get back on track and the defense is a lot better than people think:
They are currently 4th in the league is fewest yards allowed and 4th in most sacks - 10 in 3 games and 5 on Sunday with Jared Allen back. This defense is going to keep them in games and as they incorporate Dwayne Bowe and Larry Johnson, the offense will better than they have been.
Also, the rest of the division is struggling. Oakland barely beat the Browns, the Broncos have some lucky wins, and the Chargers are falling apart. Their next 6 games include 4 at home and Oakland on the road. This team could easily be looking at 5-4 after that stretch.
Counterpoint: Not A Chance in Hell!
Larry Johnson will never get back on track with one of the worst offensive line's in the league. They'll lose on the road against a hungry San Diego team and while the Jags have a week off to prepare for their Week 5 game at Arrowhead.
The could barely beat the Vikings starting Kelly Holcomb at quarterback and were embarrassed by the Texans and Bears.
The Chiefs have a better shot at a top draft pick then making the playoffs. They'll be lucky to get 6 wins all year.
