Kansas City Chiefs Rating – 82
The Kansas Chiefs’ main achilles heal last season was their pitiful WR core which amazingly did not record one TD. Yes you read that right. The Chiefs’ WRs last season did not catch a SINGLE touchdown. Now Alex Smith is no Aaron Rodgers, but still that fact is ridiculous in a bad way. The Chiefs addressed that glaring issue in a big way by signing star WR Jeremy Maclin. The rest of the WR core is arguably thin, but don’t forget they also have one of the best all-around offensive weapons in Jamaal Charles, and a QB that rarely turns the ball over.
The defense could easily be the best in the league with Justin Houston and Tamba Hali running amok. Considering all of the talent on both sides of the ball, an 82 feels far too low. An 82 puts them below the Detroit Lions, tied with the Cardinals and Chargers, and barely higher than the Dolphins (81) and Panthers (80). The Chiefs, on paper, should be better than all of those teams in Madden NFL 16.
