It has a similar feel to what the Eagles were after their 10-1 start last year. At some point it turns and you get on the wrong end of those. Especially when your QB is getting hit a lot more and your defence loses its edge.
In this case I don't think it's the players tuning out the coordinators and internal dysfunction that I think happened in Philly last year. I think the Chiefs problems are more talent related. Teams know where their weaknesses are and they're attacking them there, and the Chiefs are not coming up with a way to counter it right now.
