As we mark the sixth year of Patrick Mahomes holding the reins as the starting quarterback for KC, fans and pundits are wondering: How far will the Chiefs go in 2023?

There’s no doubt about the Chiefs being Super Bowl contenders. Still, when discussing winning the Super Bowl or having the best win total, it might be prudent to approach cautiously, especially considering the current uncertainty around Chris Jones.

Rewinding to the previous season, the Chiefs showcased their offensive prowess by securing the top spot in regular season points. What’s more remarkable is that they achieved this feat even after parting ways with their star wide receiver, Tyreek Hill. Contrary to the expectations of many, the departure did not impact their offensive tempo. The team continued to rely on a rapid and high-voltage offense, setting the field on fire.

When pitting the Chiefs against their competitors in the regular season total points category, the spotlight falls on teams like the Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys, and San Francisco 49ers. However, the strategic approach of these teams might give the Chiefs a leading edge. Mike McCarthy of the Cowboys has made no secret of his intention to lean more towards running the ball this season. Similarly, the 49ers and Eagles will likely run the ball, leading to a potentially slower pace in their gameplay.

Given these strategic dynamics, the Chiefs, focusing on a fast-paced offense, are well-positioned to dominate in regular season total points. The field is set, the stakes are high, and as the 2023 season kicks off, all eyes will be on the Chiefs to see if they can make the odds work in their favor.
