The Kansas City Chiefs have continued their reign of dominance over the NFL through two weeks of the 2024 regular season, and their defense has been among the league’s best.
Kansas City’s young secondary has thrived in the absence of cornerback L’Jarius Sneed, and the Chiefs’ defensive line has done a great job of pressuring opposing quarterbacks their first two games.
Led by star defensive tackle Chris Jones, Kansas City’s front four is beginning to show flashes of excellence, and the experts at Pro Football Focus have officially taken notice.
On Wednesday, PFF released its list of teams with the most quarterback pressures this season.
The Chiefs came in fourth, with 42 heading into Week 3:

Though Kansas City is near the top of the league in pressures, the Chiefs have only accumulated four sacks through their first two contests.
Expect Jones and the rest of Kansas City’s line to convert more of these pressures into sacks as the season continues.
