I hope the Chiefs defense plays as well as it did against the Colts. I've said it all season, that defense is so bad that the Chief's offense will have to score 40+ most games to beat good teams. Two of the 3 other teams left just happen to beat the Chiefs this year the Pats beat them 43-40 and the Rams beat them 54-51.
The future for the Chiefs is very bright with Mahomes, Hill, and Kelce and that high powered offense but their focus this offseason better be focusing on improving their awful secondary and LB core through the draft and free agency. If they don't take the best defensive players on the board with nearly every draft pick their front office is stupid. They could use another RB and if the right one is there in the 2nd or 3rd round that would be a reasonable pick too, Montgomery would be a nice addition to that offense.
Not to make excuses, but the both the Cheifs vs Pat's and vs Rams were away games where there was added home edge. The Pat's were making a big deal over the beatdown they took at home versus Chiefs the prior year, and the Rams game had all kinds of hype due to LA unity for the fires and shootings. The Rams were all were gonna win this for LA.. not excuses for the Chiefs defense, but it is hard to beat a super emotionally amped home team.
On that note, I hope now that the playoff loss streak monkey is off Reid and the Chiefs back, they view fan support as energy not pressure as they have last few times.
