The Kansas Chiefs will be hoping to improve their passing offense in the upcoming season in hopes of returning to the playoffs after missing out on the postseason last year.

Kansas City’s air game accounted for 3,182 yards in 2014, the fourth least in the league. Quarterback Alex Smith will be working with an upgraded receiving corps in the upcoming season. Interestingly enough, zero of Smith’s 18 touchdowns were thrown to wide outs last year.
