While the Chiefs have not lost a game since December 2023, much of the talk this season has centered around Kansas City’s inability to look like the dominant team many have grown accustomed to in recent years.

Patrick Mahomes entered Monday night with an NFL-leading nine interceptions, but he played a clean game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. There were some concerns in the fourth quarter when Mahomes briefly needed assistance to get to the sideline after he awkwardly planted his leg during a touchdown pass. 

But he remained in the game and orchestrated a game-winning touchdown drive in overtime. Despite being the only undefeated team in the NFL, the Chiefs' front office is aware of the need to improve the roster.
