Kansas City Chiefs after their fourth loss of the season already seem to be in a bad state right now. After their devastating 27-3 loss against the Tennessee Titans, the picture is very clear that the Chiefs are not themselves this season and this is the time to make amends for the franchise.

Patrick Mahomes has never been in poorer form in his entire NFL career so far. He has thrown six interceptions in all of his previous six games. And the Chiefs defense continues to leak from all sides, making it easier for their opponents to score.

An annihilating defeat against the Titans

By the look of their current form, their chances for a fourth trip to the AFC Championship game and third to the Super Bowl seems far-fetched. Although it was an annihilating defeat for the Chiefs, the fans were the ones who suffered the most. And so after the game, they took to Twitter to express their concern for the falling team.

Even with Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce both available in the offensive squad against the Titans, the offense still hasn’t paid off consistently. Opponents have blitzed Mahomes just 13% of the time this season but pressured him on 35% of his attempts.

Kansas City Chiefs with their drowning hopes

However, it cannot be ignored that the Chiefs have had a gruelling schedule, as five of their last seven opponents are strong playoff contenders. And the Chiefs had to go up against them when they seem to be out of form.

The Chiefs have now to make a decision based on their previous failures, as it is becoming a now or never kind of situation for them. The fans have been deeply disappointed with the ongoing obliteration of their team from the title race.

However, it is going to be an easy fixture for the Chiefs next week as they face the 2-5 down New York Giants. If they fail to sneak a victory out of them too then it is seemingly going to be a game over for the Chiefs as the next three fixtures for them will be against the Packers, Raiders and Cowboys.
