Chiefs vs. Titans Instabreakdown: Offense comes to standstill; defense finds a star

After starting the season with incredible production — despite turnovers — the Chiefs combined their continued lack of ball security with generally bad offensive play against the Titans.

The most glaring issue was the ineffectiveness of the passing game. Even as they faced a very injured, under-talented secondary, they could not find any holes for big pass plays; they had no completions of over 10 yards in the first half.

The pass protection earned blame. There were an unbelievable number of breakdowns that turned into sacks and forced incompletions by both offensive tackles and right guard Trey Smith.
