The Kansas City Chiefs lost their first game of the season on Sunday night, and while you should be concerned, you shouldn’t panic.

Guess what? The Chiefs aren’t going to go undefeated. Yes, the dream is officially dead after an ugly 19-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday night.

So should Chiefs Kingdom be worried? Sure. The run defense remains a mess after allowing 180 yards on the ground, and the injuries are piling up. Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins are crucial weapons. Eric Fisher’s absence is looming larger every week. Chris Jones is now week-to-week with a groin strain. The list goes on.

Still, there’s no reason to panic. As Matt Verderame discusses on FanSided’s Stacking The Box podcast this week, the Chiefs remain in great position. Additionally, the injured players will return shortly. Have a listen:
