Chiefs' Offense Gets So-So 2025 Ranking

The Kansas City Chiefs' offense hasn't been what he had become accustomed to over the past couple of seasons, with the big explosive plays gone and replaced by a steadier and methodical approach.

Leaning on the defense, Patrick Mahomes and Co. don't have to score 30+ points every week; often, 20-ish gets it done. Part of that is due to the lack of weapons at Mahomes' disposal, especially last year, with Rashee Rice out from Week 4, and Marquise Brown not being sighted until Week 16.

And for Pro Football Network's Kyle Soppe, he ranks the unit No. 12 out of all 32 NFL offenses.

"The Kansas City Chiefs were a top-five unit for four straight years (2019-22), but have developed into a “it’s not if, but when” we peak sort of team," Soppe writes. "They are the opposite of the Bills/Ravens; we will trust them to get it together at the right time until they don’t.

"The odds of Kansas City finishing much higher than this don’t seem too likely (an explosive Rashee Rice season could change some things), but that’s more because they don’t have the desire to, not because its ceiling is any different than some of the names sitting atop this list."
