Obviously a win. But performance wise, what will be acceptable, unacceptible vs. the Chiefs?
How many passing yards, TDs etc. can we reasonably expect?
Rushing yards, TDs?
Is it reasonable for our D to hold the Chiefs to what, under 20, 30, 40?
What's my expectation? Glad you asked!
I don't think it's reasonable that we, the league's worst scoring D, hold one of the league's highest scoring teams to less than the low-mid 30s in points. I'll establish an O/U at around 38 and say that for every point below that, they team/coaching gets credit. For every point above it, it suggests that matters are worse than many of us think.
On offense, given the Chiefs' dead last pass yardage D at over 300 YPG, coupled w/ our 2nd ranked yardage pass O at near 300 YPG, I would suggest that unless Henry runs like a madman, that near 400 yards is to be expected. Of course yardage is not the largest of the issues as scoring is. So as long as we amass at least 4 TDs I think we're doing OK. Especially if our D doesn't keep the Chief O contained at all.
So I'm lookin' for 4 TDs and then a couple of FGs and I think that's a decent goal against a team that has such a horrible D. Unfortunately, our D is worse than theirs, so that many points may not win us the game.
