Andy Reid has certainly brought that Schottenheimer like stability to the Chiefs, and similar to the Marty ball teams, competitive teams, but teams that no one takes seriously as a contender if they're not a Chiefs fan.
It's not that they are a collection of garbage though as they have some good players at key positions. It's just the run of good fortune in turnovers (something ridiculous like 49 for and 18 against) they are on going back to last year. It's unsustainable yet they are managing to sustain it which defies logic. Every game they get a key turnover they turn into points. The last time a team had a clean game against them the Bucs won but outside of that they are very opportunistic with interceptions and fumbles are bouncing to them. They have Carr's number so I expect the Chiefs to win Thursday winning based on you guessed it; key turnovers.
