The Week 6 game against the Detroit Lions is crucial to the Kansas City Chiefs’ aspirations.

With the team stuck in third place in the AFC West, the game against the Lions could be the turning point for the Chiefs.Head coach Andy Reid’s team needs a win to maintain their playoff hopes. However, if they play like they did in Week 5 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, their hopes will diminish.

While Nagy is hinting at a shift to a more pragmatic offense, Mahomes is seeing the glass half full. “We’re getting better,” the signal-caller assured in a press conference.”That’s all you can do. We’re getting better and better,” Mahomes said, also pointing to Rashee Rice’s imminent return from a six-game suspension.”Just getting him [Rice] into the offense as well. But at the end of the day, it’s all about winning,” he acknowledged, jumping on Nagy’s bandwagon in search of getting his team out of its slump.
