Patrick Mahomes not letting the Chiefs' defense ruin a good thing

PITTSBURGH -- Through two games, a couple of things have become evident about the Kansas City Chiefs. They need to score a lot of points -- and they're capable of doing just that -- because they give up a lot of points.

The Chiefs have allowed 65 points in their two games. But they're 2-0 because they've scored 80.

Kansas City's defense is threatening to ruin a good thing. The Chiefs opened up a 21-0 first-quarter lead Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers only to see the score tied by halftime.

The offense responded by putting up another three touchdowns in the second half, though, and the Steelers couldn't quite keep up, succumbing 42-37.
